One shower and one wc in the floor for at less 20 people. In my room any wardrobe, any closet, any stand, any table...incredible! all my clothes im the floor, very uncomfortable.

Better than I expected it to be. Nothing to complain about apart from lack of smiling faces at Reception. When travellers arrive at a hostel exhausted and hot, it would be nice to be greeted with a smile from the hostel staff. But having said that, I'd stay here again because it's a safe option and the location is perfect.

The hostel was in a great location to the great sight seeing places and the price is pretty good for getting a decently comfortable bed (in the dorm) and breakfast in the morning. The staff were okay. They weren\'t very enthusiastic or friendly. Also, the dorm room w/ 24 rooms can definitely use a mop. Showers have hot water though which was nice. Also, they only have small security boxes so if you have a pack you got to trust it laying by your bed.

Location is great for sight seeing and nightlife but terrible for sleeping before 3am as it's on a street full of loud bars. No lockers or even locks on the doors. Layer of dirt on the floor in the dorms was thick enough to see footprints and was not cleaned once in the 4 days I was there. Roof terrace is nice tho with ok prices except for the price of tea.

The location is great- this hostel is on a lively street just a short walk from the major sites, including the Hagia Sophia, and it's near the tram so you can easily get anywhere. The staff wasn't very friendly, but they were knowledgeable and helpful, and the rooms were clean.

location was great, thats about it. the girls dorm was on the ground floor facing a brick wall with one small window so no ventilation - like living in a basement! the roof of the shower dripped and did not look safe. friends stayed on second floor and shower was not working - there was one shower for two floors!

Good hostel, staff could do with smiling a bit more often and some floors could do with seeing a mop. Otherwise fine - location especially good.
