Teskey Guesthouse

We had an amazing stay, is very clean and a great price. They offer useful services such as gas hiring and clothes washing. The owner is extremely helpful and friendly, especially with organising trips, speaking with locals and finding anything you need in Karakol. If you are staying in Karakol this is the place to stay and have recommend to lots of people! Thanks for all the help when we stayed Taalai! :)

Very clean, very knowledgeable and helpful host, good price, hard to find.  I would absolutely stay there again if I'm ever back in Karakol.  No complaints about any part of this place but the host is really the best part.  He was extremely knowledgeable and very eager to help answer pretty much any questions.  He knows Karakol well, where to get the best bread, which bank has the best exchange rates, where to go for various supplies (we were bikepacking).  He recommended a place for dinner, called to make sure they were open since it was late, and gave us a very detailed description of the entrance which I know sounds weird but it was actually pretty hard to find.  He also knows the surrounding area very well and recommended many sites that would be along our route to check out on the way.  All of this info came with very little prompting.  We were there in June 2023 and it was not easy to find.  It was on the corner of two mostly unlit dirt roads in pretty bad condition so it real...

Taalai and his family are the most helpful and kindest host. Irregardless of the question (hikes, Karakol, transport) we had he took his time and answered all of them. Besides, the place is very clean, has an outdoor and indoor area to sit down and the rooms have everything you need. Price for value is exceptional.
