Rebecca Hulme

15 September 2008 Rebecca would recommend this property

Liked: The staff were the best! I was able to chat to them and gain such a cool insight into Turkish culture, and they were just so willing to sit down and have a cup of turkish tea with you.Please be warned that there is an acute lack of bathrooms. You must be prepared to wait in the morning and evening rush hour and sometimes going to the toilet or brushing your teeth becomes an issue, as there are just not enough bathrooms for two floors of people.Location was amazing though. Very close to all the sights!

Liked: I liked very much staying at this Hostel. First of all, it is very cheap and internet and breakfast is included. Secondly it is close to all import sightseeings and we can see everything by walking. Thirdly people are friendly, helpful and nice. To add all this things, at night, in this Hostel, Turkish music are played which allow us to dance and relax. I recommend it and intend to tell everybody who wish to visit Istambul.
