One of the advantages: A small room, lots of mini sofas, there are TVs - if you find a remote control, you can watch something with sound))) It's clean enough.
One of the disadvantages: food. Only fruits, mini cakes, and sandwiches are freely available.
To order food, you need to "catch" the administrators and order food and drinks from the menu. Coffee/tea is also made by admins, meaning there is no habitual access to a coffee machine.
Some of the USB sockets are not working. The input is only on a regular USB, so it will not be so easy for owners of iPhones with fast charging to charge the gadget. It would be great if we added modern connectors, or extension cords with regular charging outlets.
The CIP lounge at Samarkand International Airport did not make an impression: a meager assortment of buffets, plastic / cardboard dishes, slow service (even pour hot water from a kettle - you have to wait for the "bartender"), alcoholic beverages - for a fee. For passengers who are not members of airline loyalty programs, paying 50 USD each to visit this CIP lounge did not seem very reasonable...
Excellent business lounge. I was the only one there during the day. There are a lot of desserts and snacks like sausages in dough and pancakes with meat, but you can order what's in the photo without any problems. Due to the low passability of the hall, this is the optimal scheme. I recommend.
