Yo reservé en la zona de KARIKOY, al llegar al hostel no tenían constancia de la reserva hecha 6 meses atrás.... Se excusaron por cambio del sistema informático!!! Nos desplazaron en taxi en otro hostel de misma cadena al otro lado del Bósforo, el cual no teníamos la habitación en el mismo hostel sinó que teníamos que desplazarnos dos calles arriba para dormir y volver al otro para desayunar!!!! Eso sí.... La ubicación de 10, estábamos a dos minutos de la Mezquita Azul y el centro histórico!!! La habitación, muy limpia!!! Si vuelvo a Estambul, volvería al mismo establecimiento del barrio de Luthanamet

Great stay!

Great location. Friendly staff. Decent rooms. Super comfy beds! Restrooms are shared with just two or three other rooms, and they are cleaned daily & in good condition. Breakfast is good! Heads up— there are many flights of stairs depending on where your room is, but it’s not really an issue!

Die Lage des Cheers Porthouse ist super um Abends auszugehen. Dadurch ist es etwas lauter wenn man schlafen möchte. Hat uns aber nicht gestört. Und auch so war es sehr zentral gelegen für unsere Unternehmungen.

Good location, but staff were often absent so often not available to help with questions. Breakfast was nice, but started quite late and was in a rather small kitchen area. The room was nice with a large bed, but the duvet was too small for the bed.

Would recommend

Clean room, with interesting details, but with no view at all. Still, it was pleasant to stay with my wife and two small kids. Breakfast ok. Host helpful, English speaking. Bit hard to reach by car, you need to cruise couple inches away from restaurants tables and crowd, but parking lot close enough (charge 30 TL per day or better say half a day). Bunch of restaurants and cafes in the same street. Close to Galata bridge.

Good value for Central location

It is a budget accommodation with a central location. Five minutes walk to Galata, 3 minutes to tram station and just 2 minutes to a large tram station that brings you almost anywhere. The rooms and breakfast are quite basic though. Some rooms come without bathrooms so read carefully when booking. Cleanliness is moderate, provisions basic. But price and location is prime so depends on what you prioritize. We had a decently comfortable sleep, nothing to write home about other than that.

Von der Lage ,super gelegen. Unser Zimmer hatte schon den einen oder anderen Feuchtigkeitsschaden. In unserem Zimmer leider kaum Wlan,wir waren wohl zu weit weg. Frühstück,war Okay, wenn man auf Instantkaffee steht.Viel Auswahl war nicht. Kein Fahrstuhl,was für Leute die nicht mehr so gut zu Fuß sind echt hart sein kann. Ansonsten war es OK.
