Bishkek

This is an apartment converted into a hostel. The first twin room is right at the entrance door, with windows facing the courtyard. It's usually quiet there, but any guest coming in or out will be heard. The city view is nice at night. 
Further down the hallway is the dorm room, to the right is the kitchen, toilet, bath, and next to it another twin room. Its windows face the road, the busy Chuy Avenue, and you can see the mountains on a sunny day. It's noisier, but with the window closed at night it's quiet. You might hear the kitchen activity and every toilet flush here as well. In fact, toilet tank refillis is heard from any room. At some point you get accustomed and don't pay the attention anymore, but in the beginning it may be disturbing. 
I am sensitive to light, and didn't have any problems with that. I have stayed in both twin rooms. The curtains are not black-out, but dark and it was comfortable to sleep even during the day with the curtains closed. Take a dark pareo to cover the room door, too. The doors are glass and let in light from the hallway, if switched on.
The owners are nice, and so is the lady administrator. I have spent about 8 nights in the hostel, guests changed, but the atmosphere was always pleasant, homelike. 
For smoking, I went out to the staircase - stood on the floor at an open window. 
The location is great. There are supermarkets and shopping centers nearby, a 24-hour dining room, public transport stops. If you plan to go on daily tours with KG Country company, it's very convenient - their meeting point is just a 15-minute walk from the hostel. For Kettik KG, their meeting point is a 25-minute walk.
In short, everything is convenient. The beds are comfortable, the rooms have heaters, hangers, air conditioning, a desk suitable for working or as shelves) It might be a bit cramped for two in a twin room, but very comfortable for one. 
The hostel has an ironing board, a washing machine, a fridge, a microwave, a kettle, etc. We take off shoes at the entrance and leave them on the rack. We keep it clean)
The water was always hot, with good pressure. 

As for wishes - to add more plates. There is a lack of ordinary plates to warm up food in the microwave, saucers, bowls. 
But overall, it's a good hostel for the money. When I go to Bishkek again, I'll stay there again! Thank you, Svetlana, Nina, Almaz!
p.s. dear Almaz, please update the instruction how to find a hostel. It is outdated, and I had issues finding it.

good price performance, dark curtains, nice city views, location.

I've always wanted to see the inside of one of those old Soviet apartment blocks and this proved that opportunity in Bishkek. It is billed as a hostel, but it is more like a hared air bnb. Ahead of time I was messaged with impeccable instructions about how to find the entry and gain access with a passcode. It is easy to find; just follow the instructions.

Inside I was met by the son of the owner (he speaks English; his mother does not). I had the pink room with Lenin's photo. It was very cute. The bathroom, kitchen, and toilet are shared. There is no common area per se, but there is a seating area in the kitchen around a table.

Everything was just fine and I was happy. The wifi was excelled, there was hot water, and I made coffee in the morning. The location is very good. It is close to a ton of restaurants and shops and on a busy street with lots of transport. I walked everywhere from the hostel, including to Ash Bazaar and all the museums. 

It had history, some charm, and the price was right. I would stay again.

Great experience

It's just not likely to be irresponsible and messy. It's impossible to get into a room. The landlords don't answer WhatsApp calls and messages.

I'd put a 0, if I had that chance.

Among us ur sushi and the pizza are not going crazy at all but you are not going back yet again this time I was in a hurry to get my food back yet I am going to spend the day with my dad so we are going shopping and going shopping shopping for shopping tomorrow shopping at night shopping at the house tomorrow at the latest and I will let you know if you are going to be home or are you coming to let me know when you get home and I can spend time shopping shopping

The hostel is almost in the center of the city, the design uses a Soviet theme. I stopped with a friend in a two-seat room: there is air conditioning, which in summer Middle Asian heat is a big plus.

Hostel in retro-style

A dive into the old Soviet Union, starting from the condominium in which the hostel is located, which makes it not exactly easy to find (but rest assured, you will be sent more than exhaustive indications at the time of booking).

A few steps from downtown Bishkek

We paid for breakfast, at present my friend is arguing with an employee over it, we have literature to prove it, not really a hostel, no one present at any one time, only interested in money as soon as you get here, staff are scapegoats, owner not present, go elsewhere if you want proper hostel services. Also had to find locals to help us find the place and phone on our behalf as the person minding the place had little English., no sign to show where it is.

Absolute murder to find.

It's a typical three-room apartment, with a narrow hallway, a separate bathroom and a kitchen. I mean, the feeling of a hostel/hostel doesn't come right away. I lived in 4 local rooms with two two-story beds. It's not comfortable that the other three can be men, and there's no staff (reception) in the apartment. There's also no indicators at the entrance and even on the floor, which can be confusing when you first meet - or have you been there. The location is generally good, but not in the heart of the capital. Cleaning the common area every day - it was very nice to get into the clean bathrooms.

living in a three-room apartment

This is a great hostel. It's located almost in the city center in a residential building. There are many shopping malls nearby.

Hostel of the USSR

I recommend. I liked everything.👍 A good hostel hostess explained in great detail how to get to the place. There was one downside - we were given a room with separate beds, and my husband and I connected them)) Although there was a free room with a big bed.
