Reviews of Old Center Yerevan

Best long term residents, and feel of visiting someone´s house

Just the price was good ! Internet is decent :) Pretty clean sheets and overall building, not the bathrooms.

No Lockers! Room with 4 beds had only 2 electricity sockets, one used for fan! Beds and mattress in poor condition! No AC!! Bathrooms with lots of humidity! Location is on a steep hill so you need to climb the hill each time. Manager talking loud in the building with cleaning lady and others! Disturbing! Had a room with NO windows! Only 2 toilets for the whole building, one per floor.

Positive Sides Beautiful yard Clean Good Location

Negative Sides Beds quality is bad Wifi is off sometimes Manager's behavior is rude and says always my friend but his behavior is not friendly Laundry was 600 dram after 2weeks turned to 1000 dram In sleeping time wash machin noise is not acceptable at all Most of nights a russian man and his friends speak too loud making people uncomfortable during sleep time and he is actually the owner's friend

I had just arrived in Armenia and had booked this hostel. I was told to come to pick it up. But when I went, a very rude employee kept making excuses and wouldn't take our money. We gave him drams, we gave him dollars, but each one made excuses and even insulted us. Given this behavior, I picked up my backpack and left. But after leaving the place, Sahel messaged to come back and apologized to me, but I didn't come back.

Everything

Some people

Staff friendly and eager to help. The address is located in Kond 20 with Rustaveli Street , in front of a big complex, not as in the middle of the neighborhood as map address show. Is possible to cook in their kitchen.

The Old Center Yerevan is excellent, we stayed there for a few days. But when we came back from the countryside, they had a water problem and the owner diverted us to his other site at Tumanyan St. This was a complete disaster: his other place has no house rules. Noisy until 5am, uncomfortable room containing noisy wooden stairs to the upper floor, we could hear every step all night, chaos. I moved out to an other hotel near midnight. My daughter followed early morning. Because we booked three nights, we wanted to leave and get at least part of the money back. No way. The owner reacted stubbornly despite our initial kind offer to negotiate. And he made sexist comments to my daughter.

His alternative was a disaster for us.

Location is good ,rules & regulation was good But not provide SUPERIOR TRIPLE ROOM instead they Give DORMITORY with no other option &charge 2000 AMD more .

but staff suppose to be more professional & they suppose to not confirm any rooms if not available bcoz first they confirmed & they personally messaged on WhatsApp & said that this room not available so either cancel the booking after confirming booking or you can stay in Dormitory (with 2000 AMD more needs to pay for dormitory)even though we book a Room not a dormitory

Nice kitchen, clean space, comfortable yard. The personnel is helpful, and the couches are really comfortable.

I didn't like the location that much, it's up a hill and not so close to most places I wanted to visit. Also, it would be nice to have locks in the rooms for valuable things, more electrical outlets and bed light.

I stayed in this hostel for two days. The owner and the hostel staff are very friendly. Very clean, quiet. If you want to relax, then this is the place for you!

About the girl who slept on the bottom bunk You are showing disrespect to your elders. You can rent a separate room for yourself, and no one will disturb you while you sleep. And you don’t mind that you also opened the door at midnight and left it open. Because of this, I woke up and got up with a sore leg and closed the door behind me. You came to a cheap hostel and demand attention like in a five-star hotel. In other hostels for the same money you will have much worse conditions than here. When you check into a hostel, be prepared for someone to snore loudly (for example, your bedmate), someone to talk in their sleep, and someone to fart. You just never lived in a big company. I would like to see you when you are the same age as me, with cellulite on your stomach and a lot of extra weight, and your leg will hurt from injuries like mine, and you still climb the stairs to your bunk bed.

NOT FOR FAMILY. First of all i book 3 rooms for 6 days When we arrive they only give us 2 rooms, and me and my wife, my cousin and her husband and 10month old baby have to squeeze in 1 room with 3 SINGLE BEDS! And my other cousin and His wife on another room with their 5 year old kid. They give me a refund on only 10,000 amd wich should be more than that for the 1 day they of squeezing us in that 3 single bed room. Plus the toilets are dirty and stinky.

Property is isolated, Beds are old you can feel the springs from the cushion it hurts to the back. The blankets smells weird, and toilets are dirty.

Great location, helpful staff, good price.

Limited security, lack of bathrooms.

Nothing I have to say

I had booked a bed in a four bed-dormitory... But when I got there I was told that room was not available and I've been led to a.... 14 persons dormitory !!! I actually doubt this 4 persons dormitory even exist. As expected, the night was awful with such a number of people, between hardcore snoring and people watching videos the whole night. But yeah, if you like rabbit boxes go for it ✌️

I had booked a night in a 4-bed room and when I arrived they gave me a bed in a room with 14 people. The owner said that the other room was full but I hesitate about the existence of that room.

Location

There are huge issues with this hostel. I was scammed big time, I paid for two nights cash up front in advance. However,I left after first night due to horrible conditions. First of all,there was a curfew not announced and not described. Gate is locked from midnight onwards. Nasty surprise. The room is cold and it stinks. The bed is in horrible shape ,almost collapsing, I was afraid to climb it. One wood handle is actually broken. I wasn't provided a towel. There's no "sign"of this hostel on the street whatsoever. Moreover when I paid at the reception,the owner Ando purposely retained the change and was lying that he will give it back to me which he never did,nor was planning to until I called him out on it. He only returned back small portion. The whole atmosphere there is seedy. People who hang out there are drunk,murky and somewhat threatening. I demand back 1800 AMD ( circa 4,5 USD) from this hostel! Ando also lied to me about lower bed. Snake in the grass!

Everything was good . I enjoyed it. Everyone there was friendly and feel like family

Located in quiet neighborhood. Its really clean, no doubt. At first, i feel like people are intimidating. it has to do with the language barrier i think because later on, i realized people here, even the lady who's always there are very nice and friendly. The house has some elaborate fixture and decorations.. it looks really nice.

Some bathroom fixtures and faucets need replacement/fixing but again, the cleanliness is making up for it.

Confortable bed, the little capsules are private enough with a courtain, a light and a shelf. I has a kitchen for the travels to use.

The room had a old alcohol smell. I've stayed in the room just beside the reception and it's not a quiet room as you can here every on who arrives late, the staff arguing... There's an old lady living/working? there that made me feel really unconfortable, listening to loud videos at any time of day or night, she doesn't know english but if the guests are talking between them in english she interupts the conversation, speaking a mix of armenian and russian asking non sense questions about the hair style and clothes of the guests and making sure that everyone stops theire original conversation to listen to her. In the kitchen it was a nightmare to cook when she was present (mostly all day) she mess up with your cooking by puting the fire up or down as she pleases and add salt or other ingredients to your food. NOT COOL!
