Summary of traveller reviews

Ivy Hostel Cafe in Istanbul offers a great location, close to Taksim Square and Istiklal Street. Staff are frequently praised for being helpful and friendly, with special mention of Mr. Zakaria. Some recent guests noted issues with the kitchen facilities and a lack of common areas for meeting people.

There's 5 floors, one room on each floor. Kitchen is 2$ pr. day and there is no hangout spots (there's a cafe but it felt like you had to buy something) so it's really hard to meet people if they are not in your room. (I only shared with one 40ish year old man) Toilet was a bit smelly and the springs in the bed where quite bad. Owner lives in a room inside the room I had - odd. Only good thing was on 5th floor there was a outside terrace and location is good.
