I had a good stay at Timur's place in Samarkand. The location is ideal, just a short walk to many attractions, and the hospitality from Timur and his wife was heartwarming. However, I did find the bed a bit short for my tall partner and the curtains in our room didn't fully block out the morning light, so an eye mask would be handy during warmer months.
