To visit Bukhara, we decided to stay in this small traditional house.
So, the main advantages:
1) Location - all the main attractions of the old town are 10-15 minutes on foot. Very convenient
2) Pleasant and polite hosts. We resolved all issues in a timely manner, allowed us to leave our things before checking in while we wandered around the city, and quickly resolved the issue with the temperature of the water in the shower.
3) A clean room. A separate plus is for the simplicity of the design, the absence of colorful wallpaper and gilding, which many local hotels sin against. Clean and working plumbing, no unpleasant odors in the bathroom.
4) Silence. The windows overlook the courtyard.
5) A hearty breakfast on the covered veranda - fried eggs with fried onions, homemade pastries, fresh kaymak, jam (apparently homemade too), fruits, peanuts in sugar, boiled coffee and tea - everything is very tasty.
6) You can have tea on the veranda in the evening - a pleasant interior, it's a pity there are no trees in the courtyard.
Minuses:
If you come to visit the sights and do not plan to spend whole days in the room, then they simply do not exist. There is not much furniture in the room (beds and bedside tables, a hanger), perhaps for someone it is critical to have a wardrobe or a TV, but not for us.
Location in the most historic place! The house itself has 6 rooms upstairs for rent, the owners live downstairs. The hostess prepares breakfast herself, always fresh and varied pastries, fruits, Sour cream, eggs in various forms. The rooms are newly renovated. There was no hair dryer, but it was provided upon request.
We stayed at this guest house in March, very nice and hospitable hosts. Beautiful and cozy courtyard, newly renovated room. We haven't had a TV yet, most likely, it will be available by the season.
A very large breakfast is included in the room rate.
The advantage was the location: it was close to the center of Bukhara, so you could just walk everywhere.
