This new guesthouse is situated away from the centre of Bishkek in a residential area. A taxi costs a couple of dollars into town taking about 10 minutes depending on traffic. The staff at the guesthouse, especially Natalie are pleasant and work hard . The rooms are simply furnished and have a tv with Russian and Kyrgyz channels and a fridge. There is plenty of storage space and useful shelving in the bathroom. There is lots of hot water and strong showers. Wifi is available throughout although at times it is quite weak. 
There is a small buffet breakfast with a couple of cereals, yoghurt, cheese, meats, tomatoes and cucumber, and fresh strawberries. Either omelette or porridge is offered too along with fresh coffee. Tea and coffee making facilities are available in the dining room at all times . Outside is a small patio area with seating. A 24 hour supermarket is a 5 minute walk away and the guesthouse owners do not mind you bringing in food to eat in the dining room, they also will order pizzas for you.
There is definitely room for improvement however on our two night stay the room was not serviced, there was only one toilet roll and the towels were quite small. Servicing of rooms is expected really, and the bins should be emptied and the toilet rolls replenished. As a guesthouse I would grade it good rather than very good but better than average.

Good new guesthouse better than average

I stayed in this lovely guest house in late May 2013, not long after it had opened.  The staff could not have been more helpful, everything from making sure that I had an airport pick-up to giving advice on which marshrutki to take in to town.  They accommodated an early arrival too. The guest house is on the way to Jal micorodistrict, near the corner of Manas and Akhubaeva.  This means taking a marshrutka or taxi into the centre of town, but it also means that you are in a quiet residential district and there is a lovely garden where guests can sit.  Breakfast was delicious; room was fine; wifi (free) a little weak in the room but much better downstairs.

One word of advice: if you are trying to find the guest house first time it can be tricky to locate unless you know Bishkek well (orientiry: Manas/Akhubaeva then Ul. Nikolai Ostrovskii, then right at the second small street (Bakinskii pereulok) -- google maps mark the spot with Tien Shan travel. If finding for the first time, best to ask for the guest house staff to book you their driver to meet you at the airport; this is marginally more expensive than finding a taxi at the airport, but worth it. 

Altogether, highly recommended & good value for money.

Excellent guest house in quiet district away from central Bishkek

Hidden down an alley off a side street far out in the southern suburbs, it offers hostel-style narrow bunk beds and limited service.

Breakfast is good, but no other meals are offered and shops, restaurants and public transport are a long walk away.

Rooms are clean, but not serviced.  Rear rooms overlook a metal workshop.

Bishkek has many better and more convenient options.

ps US$10 laundry bill for 2 items, unpressed!
