Travellers on a budget looking to experience a place like a local will enjoy homestays. This simple accommodation is in a private home, where the host also lives. All facilities are shared and in most cases breakfast is included.

The host family is super friendly. Food is all cooked at home and they even make their own bread. They have a little daughter who is just a delight to hang around with.
But bear in mind everything is basic here since it is in a very remote village. If you come with minimal expectations and willing to make compromises, then you will have a great stay here.
The villagers are extremely friendly and helpful people.

I had a lovely stay! The hosts were very gracious, the home was cozy, and it made for the perfect overnight stay in the village. Dinner was delicious and cost 10 Manat. The homestay is not located where it's listed on Google Maps, so the best thing to do is ask for Rahman once you reach the village.
Separate note for solo female travelers: if you go hiking nearby, be cautious. I had a very uncomfortable encounter with a man on the trail to Qalaxudat, and it scared me into ending my hike short and turning around.

Wonderful homestay
Before departure we had contact on WhatsApp about directions and road condition. Rahma and his family are used to guests. On one hand they welcome you in the family and guide you in the village. On the other hand they respect your privacy. The local, delicious food was served whenever we wanted it. We had a private room, bathroom shared. You will be surprised by the lovely three-year-old daughter and the protecting dog. This is a once in a lifetime experience. Thank you, Rahma!
