You need to pay to breathe in this hostel. You need to pay for toilet paper, lockers (you cant even use your own locker), to put things in refrigerator… Whatever you can think of, you will need to pay for it. There was mold in the room. Staff is very friendly and the location is great but everything else is not great.

Ahmed is a very kind host and I was able to ask him lots of questions. The hostel is in a great location (much better locals area in Kadikoy than Taksim)! The hostel has opportunities to volunteer and teach English where you can stay for free.
