Samarkand Hotels with Balcony

"Although it's a simple guesthouse, it was a very satisfying place to stay as a base for sightseeing. Toothbrushes are not provided, but shampoo, conditioner, body soap, and hand soap are available. The room has a refrigerator, is spacious, and very clean. They also let you use the washing machine, which is especially helpful for long-term travelers. The location is excellent, with good access to Samarkand's main tourist attractions. Both the owner and his wife (presumably) were very kind, making for a worry-free stay. While it might not be suitable for those looking for luxurious facilities, hotel-like services, or a stay with breakfast included, I would highly recommend it to anyone who values a clean and comfortable room, kind hosts, and a convenient location."

"The hotel is beautiful, fresh, and everything is new with a pleasant interior. The staff are friendly and always willing to help if they can. The cleaning lady is also very nice. The rooms are small but have everything you need for a comfortable stay. Each floor has a small balcony where you can smoke if you wish or enjoy a morning coffee, assuming you manage to snag it. Downsides: The bathroom had very high humidity; I had to keep the door wide open constantly, otherwise, the towels wouldn't even dry. At night, a strip of light enters the room because the door isn't fully sealed. Around 2 AM, some staff member noisily checked in new guests, talking loudly and so on. There was no respect for sleeping guests – I, of course, woke up. While being polite to some guests, they shouldn't disregard the right of others to rest. In general, noise from the corridor and slamming doors is very audible, but what kind of soundproofing can you expect with such a gap between the door and the wall? I wasn't particularly impressed with the breakfast: there's nothing to complain about, but nothing to praise either. I went once and didn't feel like going again. It's clean, decent, and cozy, but for the price per night in Qatar, I've had poached eggs with salmon for breakfast, not just mild yogurt and sausages. But these are differences between countries, and overall, I have no complaints about the hotel itself; you can certainly get enough to eat. The people and the interior were what I liked most. I recommend this hotel to everyone!"
