Guest house "Saken". Clear. There is a playground, a trampoline. We were accommodated in a room, the room is "tired". Inside: 3 1.5 beds (two shifted like a double), TV, refrigerator, air conditioning, bench, bathroom, water heater. The cost in July 2024 is ~ 50,000 tenge for 4: 2 adults, two children (a teenager and a kindergarten student). The price included 3 meals a day. The food was delicious, the pastries were super! But there wasn't enough meat. The staff is friendly. 3* for: lack of towels, soap, toilet paper; in the evenings the water pressure was very low. Well, saving meat in dishes.
The place is so-so. There is no parking, 3-4 cars can fit, but there are more than 20 places in the rooms (in total). The food is delicious on schedule. People are more or less normal, but the price tag is too big for such a place. There are a lot of animals in the rooms.. We had a huge praying mantis in our room, and the neighbors had a grasshopper. Some kind of maggots, beetles, cockroaches are constantly crawling... The repair is so-so.. There are holes and cracks everywhere. In general, it's a nightmare, not a place.
The kitchen is terrible, the living conditions have deteriorated, the bed linen is Chinese, synthetic. The bedspreads are dirty and stained. Constant problems with water. The inner part of the courtyard is not illuminated, the territory is not improved. In general, I do not recommend it. Across the street there is a great place for a family holiday. Excellent cuisine, 5-star accommodation, courteous staff, wonderful and adequate hostess Samal. Pine trees grow on the territory, there are a lot of roses, its own well with water, there is a large parking lot for cars, as well as swings on the territory and in the parking lot.
Saken recreation center. Cozy rooms with air conditioning, refrigerator, bathroom and shower. It's not far from the lake, 10 minutes walk. The food is delicious and the portions are good. We rest for the fifth day. Like.
