09 June 2009 Tobias would recommend this property

Liked: It is a good place to stay if you are not too bothered about the accommodation as it is nothing special. The lack of kitchen facilities and a common room to hang out (except the rooftop) means you dont' meet people that easily. It suited me perfectly fine though as its a great location and clean and i basically just spend time there to sleep. It does get quite noisy. Music until about 1, then its the street cleaners around 4 and then the prayers which are quite nice in the morning though

07 June 2009 Lee would recommend this property

Liked: The people working there were more than helpful to assist in any issue. First impression of the place was given straight away by the friendly staff. Though the music lasted quite late at night, but that's what makes it happening and lively I guess :)

06 June 2009 Ciprian would recommend this property

Liked: We arrive at 4:00 AM and the receptionist received us and offered a room, even if we didn't booked for that night. The manager of the Hostel, Dan helped us a lot with the transfer. He was very kind and offered sandwiches in the morning, because we left very early for the airport. All the staff was friendly and open to the guests. The hostel is very centered, at 5 minutes from Aya Sophia.Thanks to the staff and to hostel bookers!

06 December 2008 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: Reception was available 24 hours to give us advice on transportation (definitely an issue in Istanbul!), and other things to do. When there was an issue with my reservation, they moved my friends and I into a private room without charging extra- very apologetic and friendly!! Overall, it was a great stay an I wish it was longer!
