"We had two people staying in the room and they never gave us two towels without us calling to ask for them! When my wife went to check out, she asked for a late check out and they said OK and then when we were leaving, they kind of lost it in the system Also the shower system in the bathroom is ridiculous. ..."

I took this photo as a 360 degrees image. I am interested to see how it looks on Trover. There is a mural running the whole way around the monument and you can see people looking down the hill back to UB. The monument was built by the Russians as a memorial to unknown soldiers and heroes.

I love the city and people

5/5 - Excellent

Verified traveler

Like any city, it has its issues, the biggest probably being pollution. However, I visited the city by myself, a single woman; no one else was with me, and I never felt unsafe. I walked everywhere, even at night. Friendly people, very safe.

4/5 - Good

Ed

It's definitely worth going out on your own in the city, once you're comfortable. You'll need a tour to the national parks. I found the monuments and places to visit slightly underwhelming, but Mongolia has a low population. It's worth a 2nd look.

3/5 - Okay

Verified traveler

Very congested, too many cars and crazy traffic.

2/5 - Disappointing

B

Weird town. Horrible traffic. Unable to drain rainwater - like they did not put a sewer system under the roads. 2/3 of the cars seem to be the Toyota Prius.

4/5 - Good

Chris

Very chill, safe, and enjoyable city. Very walkable. Good variety of restaurants and nightlife.
