I stayed there for 4 days. For me everything is fine. Just that, if those manning the reception could just give a little smile and be a little more friendlier, it would definitely make the customer feel better & maybe as a result of that, make their stay more memorable hence would improve business as well. The plus factors for me is that the location is great, the internet is great (keep it up), and the price is affordable for budget travelers like myself. All the best for the team (",)

It was a small hostel, but for the location and price point it was great. I had an excellent time and met interesting people there. Loads of fun

The toilets were usually dirty, and the breakfast was very uninspiring . The staff was ok friendly and helpful, but I don´t think it was such a nice and cosy place.

The worst hostel I have ever stayed in. Its the epitome of everything that is wrong with places like hostelworld who give false reviews. First of all, we received one "wet" sheet for our bed and gross towels. The bathroom was disgusting that taking a shower was a horrifying experience. Breakfast? ha! You can't even consider it a breakfast it was so small. The front desk man is not friendly and paranoid (he thought we were sneaking in a friend when we were alone). We left after one night.

Welcoming atmosphere, clean facilities. Rooftop bar is a bonus - amazing views over Bosphorus and Agia Sophia. It is also easy to find and close to tramway and sites. Big breakfast on the rooftop terrace, in front of Agia Sophia.

The hostel has an excellent location, just below the haga Sofia, within walking distance to the main train station and the tram station. Less then a minute walk are also restaurants and pubs. We stayed for 3 nights and really enjoyed their breakfast on the terrace with a majestic view. The staff was very helpful, the toilets super clean and so was the private room we stayed in. Cool place guys, keep it up! Definitely recommended!

Worst hostel even been to! The only good thing is the location, but very old and not clean at all.

Worst bed I slept on in Turkey- we could feel every single bedspring. Tiny room, window opened out into a weird open area shared by the bathroom, so no fresh air to be had by opening the window. The room is so small that we could only have fan on with door closed so this was a problem. We had to pick up the fan to open to door to use the shared bathroom. Not ideal. Add to that a poor breakfast. We couls hear the water from the bathroom, everytime someone flushed or turned on water. Miserable.
