Customer Reviews
I stayed in the renovated Zumrad section, and it’s wayyyyyy overpriced for the value, at 400 somoni and usually not even breakfast included. Yes, the room and bed is very comfortable. And quiet despite the thin walls. But they are too lazy or cheap to even provide soap in the soap dispenser (!!!!) in the bathroom, or even a bath mat. And there is no WiFi only data. So yes, you’re paying a premium for a beautiful space but you can pay cheaper at the Turbaza next door and get the same view. And service at the onsite restaurant is appalling.
Not bad, lots of shade, a bit too expensive.
Beautiful place, good food, fantastic views with cabins at the lake shore
