Other person already mentioned in below review, Owner(Bobo) is trying to cheat and rip off guest. In bobo haydar guest house, their online price in booking.com was 92,000 som(breakfast,taxes etc all included price was 92,000 som) and I made a revervation with this price. But when I arrived here, owner say price is 110,000 som. It's a kind of old school cheating. He just attract people from cheap online price, but when people arrive their hostel, he say higher price. Even though I made a reservation with cheap online price. He said booking.com has error, so in online marked as a 92,000 som. But when I contacted with booking.com with this issue, booking.com customer service center said bobo haydar guest house owner just uploaded 92,000 som price in online. And booking|Com said they will regulate this cheating and fixing out. Bobo Owner is rude cheater.||2. Owner is horribly rude. I usually do shower with curtain in bathroom. Suddenly 10:30PM owner came into the guest room. He said loudly and rude way, don't make a water in bathroom floor. He talked about this for 5 minutes. When person do shower, there can be water in bathroom floor, even though i used a curtain. But he just came to guest room at 10:30 PM, just saying this with rude way and loud voice. Such a rude behavior.||3. So I told him, You can say more polite way. But he loudly said at 10:40PM "Do you want fight with me? Do you want fight?"I never experienced this kind of rude hostel staff. And he said " You didn't work as a hostel staff, you can't talk about hostel staff's attitude." It's a totally nonsense. Backpacker can talk about hostel's good point and bad point. And I traveled 36 conturies, I never experienced this kind of rude, cheating hostel staff before. It was horrible experience with rude and...

I want to start this review by thanking the owner, Bob. He is extremely polite, helpful, and makes sure everything is in order.
He went out of his way to help me when the weather suddenly changed and I asked where I could buy a jacket. Instead of directing me to a shop, he kindly gave me a spare jacket for my 2-day stay, saying, "Why waste money?" I was truly overwhelmed by his thoughtful gesture. He also allowed me to keep my bags at the hostel after checkout and even rest on my bed since it wasn’t busy.
Location: Perfect—right on the main road, and taxis drop you off exactly in front of the hostel.
I highly recommend this hostel for solo travelers, though they also have double rooms available.
Breakfast: Let Bob know what you'd like in advance. They usually prepare a local breakfast, which is great, but if you need anything specific, he’ll gladly accommodate.
Bed: Very comfortable Washroom: Well-cleaned and spacious
10/10 - Must stay when you...
Read moreI stayed at Bobo Haydar Guest House near the main attractions of Bukhara for $10 per night. While it's about 2 kilometers away from the city's central spots, it's conveniently close to the bus station, offering easy access to places like Naxsbanaday Mazar via the 60-number bus.
The guest house is surrounded by several restaurants and even a wine shop. The stay includes a complimentary breakfast consisting of half a loaf of bread, an egg, some fruits, and tea. They also provide hot water for coffee.
One of the highlights is the option for laundry service at 30K som per load. The beds are comfortable, and the bathrooms are clean, although a hand shower at the toilet would have been more convenient.
The host was helpful and offered great suggestions for exploring the city. Overall, Bobo Haydar Guest House is a decent option for budget travelers, though the addition of a hand shower would enhance the experience, especially for those who need it for...
