The hostel activities were sooo good! We went on a swimming boat trip with Murat on Sunday and had the best time. I wanted to say goodbye before checking out on Monday but he was off 😭 Murat, you’re not allowed to take days off hahaha. Thanks for making our stay so much fun! 😂🫶🏼

The location is great, I loved to stay here because I was walking to main places from here, the tramp stop is just few meters from the place and the zone has several restaurants, coffee shops and drinks. The staff was magnificent, they were super kind, helpful and empathetic. I highly recommend to stay here 😊
