You mean until morning? It did look clean and she agreed to get some new sheets and towels, so we took it. Thank heavens for sleep sacks, anyway. My name is Galina. Audrey paid for the room at the front desk and noticed a ledger detailing the rooms and times they were booked.
Who knew midnight was such a popular time to finish up your business in Kazakhstan? The curfew time of married men, perhaps? If so, I'll ask my husband to plug it in and turn it on. Some former clients ripped it out of the wall.
Now he needs to install it each time. After we checked-out, we elicited some strange looks from the taxis waiting in front of the hotel. More looks. You can sleep at a hotel-by-the-hour and not really care what the locals think.
So next time you are on a limited budget and need a place to stay in Shymkent, Kazakhstan look no further than the hotels-by-the-hour near the train station. And if you want to take a nap before a train or bus, there is nothing odd in asking for a room for 2 hours. Just be sure to bring an open mind, a sense of humor, your sleep sackβ¦and your earplugs.

Yahya recommended I start the day with this story. Best, Cathy. Some might argue the same of our hotel-by-the-hour in Shymkent, too. If pressed to name it ourselves, we might offer Hotel Bizarreβ¦or perhaps Hotel Squeegee. I follow your trip almost everyday. These story is absolutely crazy. Were you able to sleep that night or was it to noisy :-? Thanks for the comment on my blog, I have enjoyed reading yours.
