Great hotel, everything is fine including wifi (within country limits).

Hotel was nice. The air conn worked. Free WiFi but restricted access. Breakfast included was no choice, just a set plate of food. Swimming pool in a separate building. Unusually the pool didn't have a shallow end. At 5ft 6, I could just about stand on tiptoes, so be aware. Sauna was very warm, but small. Changing rooms are tiny. Ask for a towel on entry. The terrace was nice to sit out in for food, dj had people up dancing outside. Music finishes early enough to not affect sleep. Separate dining rooms outside hotel as well. Walking distance to the main town, the mosque and large flag along with the market were only 15 mins walk. Next door to a school.

I would say I quite like this hotel, its one of the best that I have stayed in Turkmenistan. In terms of location I won't know its good or not cause we can transported by the guide everywhere on car, but I know this place is very near the train station it took barely 10 minutes to arrive. In terms of the room, I loved the bright lighting and how spacious the room was. I like the very clean impression cause of the bright light and the "whiteness" of the room (very Turkmen style). It looks very modern and very new also. As I arrived past midnight I didn't get to look around but the hotel premises is actually quite big and so is the hotel lobby itself. Breakfast was not too bad you didn't have to choose the food just came in a big plate like a platter and you can request for more of the items if you have finished it. The only scare I had was after my morning shower as I got out from the shower cubicle the hinge broke and the cubicle door almost fell out. I was panicking what to do and hold the door I just grabbed a towel to stable the base while I quickly called the reception and asked the staff to come up and see. The staff upon coming up and saw, was so calm and said "OK". The people working here are quite chill as well. There is a big I LOVE MARY sign at the entrance of the hotel for nice photo memories.
