    It’s a good thing I’m not allergic to cats, otherwise I couldn’t have stayed there. Yes, the kitties are cute and all, but they roam around freely, mostly in the kitchen area. I know that some folks like their pets more than they like people, myself included, but when you’re hosting perfect strangers into your home for profit, you have to be more considerate and businesslike. Also, on one of the nights the guy of the house carried on a pretty loud conversation with (a neighbor?) well past midnight. There’s also very little if any enforcing of not smoking indoors, especially on the basement level.

    The very kind lady that runs it, does an amazing job, she is very nice and hospitable. The accommodations are very basic, yet they do the trick. I also like that they have several signs posted in the surrounding blocks that guide you to the property.

    When I reached the hostel, they said that they can't accommodate me because it is full and asked me to look for another hostel. I paid exactly the price I booked for 15,000 Armenian Dram, but the lady said that i should pay extra for the 4th day as the amount is good for 3 days only. I was forced to leave early on the 4th day (6am) coz the room that they gave me is the personal room of the landlady and otherwise I will be charged another 5,000 Dram extra. There should be a clear communication regarding booking and reservation

    The landlady is very hospitable. Although she said that she cannot accommodate me eventhough i had a reservation, she gave her personal room to me to use.

    the toilets weren’t the best, but overall okay

    I stayed for 2 nights at Carina’s place, it was very good, they’re sweet, caring and kind. it was like staying with my grandparents; they offered me dinner and always checked if I’m hungry. they have tea and coffee available all day. it is there house and they live there so it is more of a guesthouse than a hostel but I loved it. i was also there alone with no other guests, which was nice.

    Unfortunately due to the Russian war prices has risen I don't think it's the value for yerevan but it is what it is.

    The host are really nice and friendly people, you get also breakfast every morning, it's nothing special, eggs and bread but nice to have, tea and coffee all day. Good location too, not a bad stay here at all, recommend it

    The boss and his wife raise too many cats. These cats are not afraid of people. They often slip into the room and one night when I woke up I saw one cat on my bed and later I suddenly found some scratches on my leg. The boss is very rude. He every day quarrels with his wife. He sometimes yelled to me. He does not know what politeness is.

    Nice location and very good ventilation.

    One bathroom has a sink, two showers and a toilet so if it's occupied then you cannot use any of these things. However there is a second tiny bathroom with a sink and toilet but it doesn't have a shower, The bigger bathroom floor was often wet from the showers

    Friendly owners, atmosphere like in the countryside when you visiting your grandparents they tried to make sure you are having no problems and helped as much as they could. Central location, you can easily access it on foot or just book a cheap taxi from GG app The owner personally cooked some simple breakfast at the agreed time, each time it was different Allowed us to store luggage past our check-out time

    The owners are very friendly and accommodating. They made sure we had a comfortable stay and provided what we needed. The place is very quiet which is good when you need to have a good night sleep after a tiring day of exploring Armenia. The hostel's location is near to the metro,republic square and it is very accessible to groceries, shops and even salons!

    But it was incredibly dingy, the room felt dark, old carpets, the bedding was like what you would find at your grandma's. The walls are incredibly thin, and you could smell people smoking outside/in other rooms. The whole place could use a revamp. The bathroom was interesting, two showers in open cubicles and a toilet in a lockable room, which sometimes had a very questionable smell when you walked past. It was really difficult to get hot water, I had several cold showers. The breakfast was nice but sometimes it seemed like just what the host found in her fridge that morning. I don't know what I expected for this price, next time in Yerevan I would go somewhere else and pay more.

    I'm astonished a place like this can have such a high rating. I can only assume people are willing to overlook a lot because the owner is very hospitable. This place was cheap and in a great, central location (although one that taxi drivers struggled to find)
