We booked a trip there. And so far it's looks very nice, good guide, good program, good price as well, I suggest to come there to have information and book tours :)
This was a really nice hostel, and they set up a great tour for us! They also picked us up from the train station, free of charge!
Nice GuestHouse. Small and calm. But they didn't have keys for the private room.
The rooms were OK. I think you can find better places. Do not book your tour in this hostel. We booked here our tour. The driver was really good but our guide was a good cook but she was NOT a good guide. I think the owner is a little money driven.
This group is a fantastic help and resource for travelers in Mongolia. I had a great time during my 5 days there. Davka and Uka were sensational hosts and people.
thank you very much for your service we are very happy to be here :)
Horrible. Nothing like the information promised when we booked. I am on my 11th month of travel to 12 very different countries, and this was absolutely not worth 25 USD a night (private room). We were sent to an apartment - an additional a 10 minute drive away from the hostel. I booked this hostel for the location which should have been a ~15 minute walk to the stadium for the festival - the festival being the reason we came to UB. Instead of having an easy walk early in the morning, from the apartment it took nearly an hour! One way! On top of that we weren't told any information/tips with buses to make the walk easier after a long day.
We bought tickets to the festival through this hostel too (extremely overpriced - they charged 50,000/25USD per ticket eventhough the ticket had 20,000/10USD printed on it. quite a mark-up 😒). They did not provide a program or any information. I asked when it started and they said 10am (wrong, the program we borrowed from someone else said 11am) and they said to be in our seats by 9:30am - there was a parade from the Chinggis Khaan Square to the stadium at 9:30 that we completely missed. That information was also in the program and would have been easy to share.
Further, the apartment did not have a separate common room, no seating area, no balcony - all of which were listed as amenities. How did this place get a single descent review?? It took an hour and a half to check in - but nothing was happening.
Terrible first impression of Mongolia. Luckily we booked a trip to the Terelj with a different company with was a COMPLETELY different experience. By that I mean it was awesome - the other hostel and other tour was awesome.
Clean and basic hostel. Breakfast is included. Dorm is 7 USD. Stuff is english speaking and very friendly.
