Great hostel!! Clean, fun staff, safe & the common area feels very homey - good for meeting other travelers. I totally recommend this hostel. Though, I do suggest that you are careful when booking the airport pick-up service. Make sure the hostel varifies the time & date of your arrival via email (not phone) or something of the sort because the pick-up service gets confused sometimes. Otherwise, I had a great time here. I recommend that you stay here.

The beds are nice and soft and the dorms are inside a cave. So no windows, no air circulation. The breakfast is really good and the common room is a nice big area where you can meet people. The bathrooms are outside so it can be a problem if you have to use them in the night. The hostel overall is good and can be recommended if not for the hostel owner/manager. One morning two people walked in without prior reservation and he turned them down even when half of the hostel was empty. Seems biased

I love Nomad!! This was my favorite hostel in Turkey. They have a great common area to hang out and meet other travelers. The cave rooms are awesome, with big thick blankets to keep you warm. The owners are really great people and know a ton about the area. The only draw back is theres no where to lock your luggage, but its a quiet town and it seemed plenty safe without locks. After a few days at Nomad, I was wishing I had a few weeks to stay!

My sister and I had the greatest vacation in Cappadocia; the hostel was clean and located in the middle of the town. The people who work there made sure we make the most out of our time. They even took us on a tour with a friend of theirs. This was probably one of the best vacations I have been on. I would greatly recommend staying here. Jihan and Appu will take good care of you.

I appreciated the special attention given by the host - he would take as much time as needed to help with my travel plans. The facility is fun, good location and really liked the communal area where I met so many other guests. The best hostel in Turkey!

Amazing location, staff and vibe. Be sure to organise all your tours/activities through the hostel so you dont get ripped off in town (i learnt that the hard way!)

Wow, best travel experience in Turkey was meeting owner Apul, trip would not have been the same without you! It was like staying with family with all the insider tips and consistant caring attitude. Thank-you! Hostel is amazing, clean, great price, great people. Cave experience was unforgettable, although a little like camping :) Facilities are basic but provide everything that is needed. Breakfast is best we had in Turkey. Book here - you will not regret itI

Stayed in a private room so can only speak for that. Place is very clean and nice. Owner is very nice and can help with anything - activities, hiring bikes, laundry etc. The hot water in the private room was a bit cold but you could go use the doom showers which were nice and hot. Owner is currently fixing the pipes as they froze in a cold snap over winter.

Great location with real cave rooms at good prices. Fantastic staff. I lost my ATM and credit card while in Capadocia (not thieves, totally my fault) and the staff went out of their way to keep in touch with the tour company we used and try to track them down. Had the staff book rides to the Kayseri airport and book a day tour- both were fine at decent prices. Couple of minor maintenance issues with our room (prrivate doublle with bath), but we wouldn't hestiate to stay again and recommend it.

really nice hostel with staff who do care about you. they were always ready to help, they picked us up from the bus station, gave towels and soap whenever we needed (even though we were staying for 1 night only and didnt expect our towels to be changed, we were not really expecting towels to be included in the price at all ;)). they booked a great tour for us, gave loads of useful tips and served a supernice breakfast. the beds were cosy and warm, showers and toilets clean. you'd stay here! :)

This hostel has absolutely no security in the dorm room. They are always unlocked and anyone can go in. They say they have a locker that you can keep your valuables in, but when you want to open it he just gives you the key and you have access to everyones things. The staff almost ruined our balloon trip, don't listen to their advice. They try to sell you packages all the time, when it is VERY easy and cheaper to do it yourself. My bed was filthy, full of crumbs and hair. Dorm room is very dark.
