The to?lets were blocked and never clean. My bed was g?ven to somebody else a day before I was supposed to check out. The breakfast was average. There are better hostels ?n the same area for the same pr?cer w?th a better deal. I would not return to S?nbad.

Poorly run (potentıal to be great) never clean sheets,toılets always blocked (sometimes 1 toılet for 70 beds)HAVE to pay ALL when checkıng ın/ no reımbursement ıf they overbook, DO NOT go there unless very tıght budget and/or lookıng for a cheap place.You get what you pay for and may even get ın trouble wıth the manager- who seems to care more about the money than the hostel reputatıon-hope he ımproves the place!!!

We got what we expected here, nice staff, good terace with a fine view. Good reason to stay here if you looking for budget hostel with internet and breakfast.

I didn't appreciate dirty looks after I asked for another roll of toilet paper after getting food poising. Very strange and unhelpful staff.

We are not fussy people and the Sinbad is OK, but we have stayed in better places for less money in Istanbul.
