This is a lovely hotel, in the heart of Almaty. We enjoyed our time here, all except for the two lengthy power outages that seem to be a common affliction here. All-in-all a pleasant stay with comfortable beds, a decent shower, and a wonderful breakfast.

My name is Daeyoung Lee who stayed at your hotel on the 4th Nov. I paid for Taxi on the desk only one time. But it was found that your hotel charged twice. I guess the staff at reception desk charged the payment again when I changed the departure time.
