A normal place for your money. The cheapest among the hotels of the same level in the center. The room was clean, everything was working. There was no cleaning, but maybe it was because I took it for two nights, or maybe I needed to put up some kind of sign or call the reception, I wasn't interested. The location is very convenient, everything is nearby, even if you walk! A currency exchanger (from 10) and bereke bank are conveniently located right in the building. The latter opens cards to non-residents on the date of withdrawal, but only if there are documents substantiating the origin of funds and the purpose of spending. I didn't have to, but the "guests" might be relevant.
The hotel is one of the oldest in the city, built in 1962 with a very advantageous location in the city center. 12 minutes walk from the train/bus station. There are many branches of various banks in the immediate vicinity. The first two floors of the hotel are rented to merchants, the former rooms have been converted into economy boutiques where you can buy all sorts of things. If this is not enough, there is a large shopping mall literally across the street. By the way, athletes like to use this hotel, because there is a swimming pool nearby. Nurken Abdirova and a little further away, in the park, the athletics arena. Parking is available both in front of the hotel and from the courtyard.
Clean, cozy, quiet. Polite staff. Every arrival and travel is only in Karaganda. The rooms are clean. Bright rooms. One wish. Internet to watch movies on TV. Basically everything is fine.
