Hostels di Ulaanbaatar

The place is located in city center, perfect to reach every single attraction in the city. Full of restaurants, shops, supermarkets around. Police station in front, super safe area. Good view from hotel, quiet place, and the owner is very kind and calm. He distributes people in room so aren’t that crowded. I liked my stay and I will come back for my last 2 days in Mongolia.

Overall, the communication was decent, and the stay was mostly good. However, there were a couple of issues with the reception team. I arrived at 1:30am after my flight landed around midnight. The receptionist seemed quite upset and told me I should have emailed them in advance about the late check-in. I disagree — even if a guest arrives at 3am, it’s part of their job to welcome them properly. During the stay, everything else went smoothly. The amenities were surprisingly good for a capsule hotel, and the place was clean and well-maintained. The only other issue was when checking out — another receptionist misunderstood what I said and created unnecessary drama. They later apologised and explained it was due to very long shifts and lack of sleep. I don’t blame the girls personally; this seems like a management issue. They only have two receptionists working 48-hour shifts. Hiring one more person and switching to 24:48 shifts would make a big difference for everyone. Given the very cheap price, you can’t expect perfection, but some tourists still expect way too much. That’s on them. Anyway, good luck with your future business!

OK- less expensive than many for the room, has potable cold water dispenser on every floor, window opens (but no screen, but no insect issues), no elevator, no A/C unit (had to leave hallway door open to get any breeze, but never attacked; and staff did bring a fan to the room when they noticed I kept the door open over my 4 night stay), place is directly across the street from a CU24, and a nice Korean restaurant, adjacent night club could be well-heard until 3AM (phone white noise machine sound helped), staff are tough but fair- respond pretty quick to any message sent through the Trip.com message thing ( needed more TP, and noise in the hallway), apparently family run, I was nice to them and they were nice to me, No elevator. All and all the room needs a fan, and know that adjacent nightclub parties hard into the wee hours- pretty decent 2000s to 2020s.. WiFi was tricky to capture initially but then locked-on well once targeted in memory- try different position in room for capture, and try different floor if needed. Cheaper price but some drawbacks- a fan would be transformative.
