Aliman Homestay

Kyrgyzstan


Unusually comfortable family home with freshly decorated rooms, Western-style bathroom, and a tapchan in the walled yard. It's brilliantly central, albeit down an alley that's off-puttingly dark at night (turn at Ömurov 63). Lola is rightfully proud of her homemade jams, and her husband Jusup offers good-value transport. Meals are also available (400som per person).
