Summary of traveller reviews

Sultan Hostel in Istanbul boasts an amazing location, putting you right by major sights. Guests frequently praise the friendly and helpful staff, and many find the beds comfortable. Breakfast is generally well-received, though some note it's basic. A lack of common areas and a kitchen are recurring downsides, and some recent reviews mention issues with cleanliness in bathrooms and occasional noise.

The 9.7 rating for this hostel made me feel like I was scammed. The one window in our room leaked water so bad that my bed and bags got soaked. They don't offer towels to take a shower and when I did buy a towel and attempted to take a shower, the water turned boiling hot for both myself and my friend. The staff came to see the problem and when they couldn't replicate the problem they asked me if I knew how to work the shower. There is zero security and no place to secure your bags. What a dump!

The problem is you never know what kind of person is in your room. First my bed was taken from somebody else then I had to tell the staff. Everybody is walking in and out time doesn’t matter and in the evening somebody came with a disgusting smell in his shoes. Not cleaning himself that’s f up

Generally the hostel is good. Just the wifi not working. And there is one girl which was rude somehow in treating with some travelers and even dont show no smile. So rude. Take attention from her. Or tell the reception. Have good trip
