I can not deny that it was the best hostel i lived in turkey. However, the stuff helped us booked the paragliding in Fethiye in much higher price. The receptor charge us for 160 TL per person and when we called to the company, they charged us only 100 TL. I am not mean the receptor was malicious for that cause the paragliding was not in local area. But check the price when book the activities. We also paid extra fee to rent a bus to go back to hotel which is unnecessary cause we booked outland.

I spoke only a few words with the manager of the hostel, he seemed to be too busy with some repairs to really have any time to have a chat or anything. The dorm was also just a giant room in the basement and it was FREEZING. Nothing special really, my experience may have been because it was the off season though. Breakfast was included and quite good and the location was good too though so it served its purpose.

This isn't so much a hostel as it is a hotel with a dormitory. And the dormitory is awful. Fortunately, the private rooms were inexpensive so I upgraded. Boomerang doesn't have much character (especially compared to some of the true family-run places in Selcuk), though I imagine that when the weather is nice the rooftop breakfast area/lounge is very pleasant. The real problem with Boomerang is that it's in Selcuk, which is one of the most lackluster towns I can imagine.

Having to pay extra for heating in the winter is bs. It is absolutely freezing and everyone complains about it. The breakfast is good though

Great hostel and excellent value. Would stay again for sure. The staff is helpful and friendly and make guests feel at home. Note that there aren't heaters in the rooms if staying during the winter. But the one in the common room is great to sit around and drink tea or coffe, which the staff is always ready to supply. The breakfast is one of the best of any hostel I've ever stayed at. No lockers in the rooms.

The hostel is an excellent location, right across the road from the bus station. Staff are very friendly and a good sized Turkish breakfast is included. The upstairs common area has a cool vibe and free wifi. Our room was nice and modern, only downfall was the door on to the balcony didn't lock properly but we felt safe.

I really apprecıate the kındness shown by thıs hostels staff. I arrived ın Selcuk after a 20 hour busride. I had contracted food poısonnıng ın Sanliurfa. The staff was kind and dıd not demand an ımmediate payment. They allowed me to just fall ınto my bed and sleep the sickness off. The next day İ felt much better and was rewarded wıth an awesome and wholesome breakfast. The hostel is about 20 - 30 minutes walk from Ephesus and a 5 mınute walk from the Basılıca of St John. I enjoyed my stay
