Stayed 3 nights in a private room. The first room had a broken AC, but the staff upgraded me to another room, which I appreciated. Unfortunately, the AC in the new room stopped working on the last day as well. Aside from that, the room itself was nice, clean, and comfortable. One thing to keep in mind is that this hostel is not very social. There were no activities or common areas, so don’t expect much of a social atmosphere or opportunities to meet people.

Great value for money

Great value for money! I had a really pleasant stay here. The place was tidy, the beds were comfortable, and the overall atmosphere was relaxed and friendly. The people I met were super nice too, which made the experience even better. The only downside was that there were no towels available to rent, so make sure to bring your own. Other than that, highly recommended!

Pros: -Great location, close to metro and Istikal street -Friendly and helpful staff -Good restaurants and cafes in close proximity -Modern, recently renovated Cons: -Bathrooms, there's not enough and ventilation is bad so they are often stinky -AC is advertised but the unit in the room was tiny and barely did anything. Often at night I would wake up sweaty, and this was in September. I think staying in the bunkhouse during summer months would be unbearable. -Have to pay for a towel. I will never not complain when hostels do this. -The rooftop bar is really the only commonspace and constantly they are blasting bad music, so it is a very hard hostel to be social in.

New hostel. 12 m2 room was fine for 4 people, clean. Two showers and two separate bathrooms are enough for the whole floor. Rooftop as breakfast place was great, in the evenings people were chilling there. Staff is helpful. Location is 3 blocks away from havabus to any airport and taksim square.
