'Having stayed at various accomodation in Ulaan Bataar i can truly say that Golden Gobi provided me with the most enjoyable and authentic experience. The hard-working staff are so helpful, genuine and caring that it will be hard for you to leave! It felt really special to fee like part of one big family. All my needs were met and more. I can highly recommend Golden Gobi as the place to stay in Ulaan Bataar. I met so many fellow travellers and we all felt so much at home in this cosy guesthouse. Speaking to brother and sister Ogi/Ogie? and Bob to arrange a tour is a must, they have so much knowledge and leave no stone unturned in their quest for you to get the maximum out of Mongolia.'
