Very comfortable, clean and modern hostel. Located near Main Street- Istiklal.Big communal space when you can work,eat and read your book.Rooms very cozy with perfect bathroom.Thanks for my amazing vacation ,I’ll visit your hostel again
We were there with a child (1.5 years old) and a wife. In September 2024. Booked through T with cashback and cheaper than on the island. We arrived at 1 a.m., settled in without any problems, the guys at the reception speak excellent English. The room was on the 7th floor with a great view)) There is a terrace with tables and sofas above, the view is even steeper there! the room is not very large, there are no cupboards, there is no armchair either, there is a metal structure with shelves and a hanger, a table and a chair. There are two sinks in the room itself. There is only a toilet and a shower in the toilet, an interesting Turkish solution. It's not very convenient, because where the sinks are, there's water, and the water where you sleep is strange. I had to lay a towel. But you get used to everything. Towels were changed every day if you throw them on the floor, they were cleaned so-so once in 5 days. If you close the windows, it's not noisy at all. We didn't hear the neighbors at all. Excellent breakfasts, two types of cheeses on the menu, sausage, portioned butter, chocolate paste and melted cheese, juices, vegetables (tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers, herbs, lettuce) fresh fruits (watermelon, plum, orange), yogurt with different types of jam, dry oatmeal, cereals and chocolate balls, milk bread, eggs and coffee from the vending machine. I want to mention once again the guys from the reception, they helped with questions, gave Istanbul kart a free ride, extended the room with a discount due to flight delays. The hotel is in an excellent location, 10 minutes on foot to Istiklal, 15 minutes to Galata Tower.
There is a large coworking area. Of the disadvantages, they give one card to the number, to ride the elevator you need this card.
Convenient location, not far from the Shishane metro station. Nearby, 2 blocks up the street, there is a wide street with lots of places with food and a red tram running.
We were in late February-early March.
The rooms are cold, there is a split system, but there is no remote control. The batteries are cold. At a temperature of + 10-15 outside, the room is cool.
Friendly staff, well-cleaned rooms, comfortable beds, warm blankets, which saved us from the cold.
There is free Wi-Fi.
Of the cons:
There is no refrigerator in the room,
Cold
Breakfast- we had breakfast included, here it is from 8 to 11. They came at different times, there is not always a choice, usually there is sausage with cheese and bread, as well as dry ready-made breakfasts, etc., vegetables.
They take out one tray of omelets, which of course is not enough for everyone.
If you like cool rooms and don't chase nutritious breakfasts, this is the place for you
A normal hotel, it's obvious that it's a little worn out, but the service is good, breakfast, reception is on the level. It's a little noisy because of the highway nearby, the walls are quite thin. But the location is good, the rooms are clean. Everything was fine with us
Clean, modern. Good breakfasts without restrictions. The room was warm at the end of November. I lowered my grade on various little things.
- There's NOT A SINGLE hook in the room! There are no closets where to hang clothes.
- Towels are not provided
- There is no microwave. There is no cooler for cold (at least) water. If it was still hot, it would be super.
- the sink in the room is incomprehensible to me, it clearly interferes with those who sleep near it.
I liked everything, the location, the rooms themselves, and the breakfasts will not leave me hungry either. For such a price, it's almost a gift :) If you are going for impressions of Istanbul, and not from a hotel, then for a comfortable overnight stay for adequate money near the metro and generally a very convenient location, you can stop. The roof is also a nice bonus, by the way :)
The room is tired, but the price tag is very nice and the breakfasts are good. In general, we were satisfied. Of the cons: there are no hooks and hangers for clothes in the room, one hook for a towel, from the sink, which is located in the room, not in the toilet, an unpleasant smell of sewage, quite noisy, since the location is in the center, by the road, it is very stuffy at night, you can't open the window - dusty and noisy. The breakfast is a good buffet - vegetables, eggs, bread, cheese, sausage, breakfast cereals, jams, milk, olives, coffee and tea. I was upset that I asked for a double bed, as I stayed for a couple of days with my husband alone, as a result - two single beds, just connected to each other.

A modern European hostel.
Pretty fresh in condition. Excellent bed linen, but uncomfortable huge pillows.
Appropriate atmosphere and guests. We stayed for 3 days in a 4-bed family room on October 28-31.
Normal breakfasts, excellent common coworking area.
The location is excellent, 10 minutes from the Galata Tower and 20 minutes from the bridge or Istiklal.
Features:
It is noisy from the road if the Windows overlook the front side and a low floor
It's not very clean in terms of cleaning.
In general, it is worthy, we recommend it
I stayed here for 6 nights in a separate room. At first, the condition of the room upset me: the walls were shabby, the renovation did not look very good. But the room was large, there was everything I needed, in the future I did not pay attention to these little things, because the location was very convenient, near the metro and I could walk to many places, and the cost I paid was very small. But all the staff was very friendly: the receptionists are attentive guys who are worried about our comfort and, most importantly, safety. There was room cleaning every day, it was noticeable that the staff took care of their guests, the breakfasts were good and varied, I had plenty of everything: biscuits, coffee, chocolate paste, omelette, vegetables, cheeses and sausages and much, much more - after such a hearty breakfast, you can safely walk until dinner. Once again, I would like to express my gratitude to all the staff, because they made my stay in Istanbul very pleasant and comfortable. Special thanks to Mike, he is very pleasant, polite and incredibly friendly. All the shortcomings in the condition of the rooms were blocked by the excellent attitude of the hotel staff. I hope to come back here again
Location and conditions are top!
The breakfast is excellent, the only thing is that the room is too small, but in terms of price-quality ratio, this is a super option!
Very nice hostel! We took a room for four with breakfast, considering the Turkish inflation, we saved well)) breakfast is normal as everywhere in Turkey, do not expect anything special from it
A wonderful hotel. The center, bus stops, attractions are within walking distance. There is heating. Cleaning every day. Istiklal Central street 500 m. Excellent breakfast. I recommend it!!!
A great budget hotel. Breakfast is also included. Clean and cozy. Convenient location. There is a subway nearby. And the central pedestrian street is also nearby.
Great hotel! Brand new, clean
Good staff
The breakfasts are ordinary Turkish, we didn't stay hungry to eat quickly and go for a walk, we don't need a lot of food)
The best hostel in Istanbul. It is located in the center near a pedestrian street. I ordered a female room, but I was intentionally placed with the guys, after a remark, I was moved to a female room. And yet, there is an elevator working according to the card, which is not talked about. The woman got into the elevator and pressed the floor, the elevator is standing, the light turned off, she knocked like crazy
