It was definitely one of my best stay with good hospitality. If we need a taxi transfer to hotel, he does. If we need a guide or contact with somebody take us go somewhere, he try to organize plan. If I feel sick, he asked me need a medicine or not. If I’m not good at wake up in the morning, he told me possible to bring breakfast to my room. When I back to Samarkand, I really wanna stay here again.
