The room and adjoining bathroom were neat and clean. The women's dorm room is right off of the reception area, which made me feel safe on my first nights traveling solo in a new country. However, there is no a/c or window to the outside in this room, so you might want to think twice about booking it in the summer if a warm room bothers you. The Turkish breakfast on the rooftop terrace is delicious, and the staff is beyond friendly, welcoming, and helpful. I hope to return! ##### Verified traveller ### 6/10 Okay #### 진피디, 한국 Jul 13, 2014 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities #### 도미터리 선택 주의 도미터리 이용시 6베드룸보다 차라리 14베드룸 선택하는게 좋을듯 14베드룸은 방안에 샤워부스 포함 화장실 3개. 6베드룸은 방밖에 화장실 그것도 다른 층에. 샤워부스도 따로 있고 좁아서 사용 힘듬 ##### 진피디 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller May 31, 2014 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Clean, friendly. Better than the pictures online! 24 hour reception, perfect for me as I arrived at midnight. Room was a 6 bed guy only room. Big lockers under the beds, no need for padlock, own key for the lock. Door lock was a simple push button. People felt relaxed they as I noticed a lot of valuables left in the rooms. Free wifi & free computers, which was good for me. Security lockers in the lobby for u to store & a luggage drop. One big dorm room of about 18 beds, with 2 toilets/showers. Spread over 5 floors, with ensuite dorms, private rooms too. The top floor is a terrace, where you get an awesome all-you-can-eat breakfast, good views, with a glimpse of the Blue mosque too. I only have 2 issues with the hostel. The lack of laundry facilities was disappointing, but just round the corner is a laundrette, but they weren't very good, as most of my clothes we returned 3 sizes too small! I only had to wait once for the toilet & shower, but I could see how it could be annoying for others. You want the toilet, go upstairs, you want the shower, go downstairs. Apart from that, overall I thought it was a great place & I will & already have, recommended it to people. ##### Verified traveller ### 8/10 Good #### hwang in young, korea May 15, 2014 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### clean and kind staff it is near the sultanahmet so you can go the mosce, museum and palace within 10minite. the room and bathroom are generally clean. ##### hwang in young ### 10/10 Excellent #### B, DC, USA May 13, 2014 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Perfect location, clean, and good customer service I would definitely stay again if i were to go alone to Istanbul again. The hosts, Enver and Medmet, never seemed to sleep. They were extremely friendly and helpful (and flirtatious ;}). The dorm rooms were very clean.

Good location in Sultanhamatthe. Breakfast was good, with nice variety, a toster would have been nice to have. I found a long hair in my bed (i swear i was sleeping alone. And im bold). There wasnt a remote control for the aircondition. When i asked for, they told me they will operate the central heating system. But they didn't. I had hard time connecting to thier wifi,but that is likley because of my devices. So they have 3 PCs at the lobby which is great. But, no matter what i did i couldn't get to the English Google and FB interface. ##### j-m ### 8/10 Good #### mr park, 서울 Oct 5, 2013 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities #### 친절한 직원 좋은 위치 맛난 아침 6인실 예약했는데 14인실 밖에 없다고 하여 기분이 상했지만 어차피 잠만 잠시 잘거라 투숙했더니 의외로 친절하고 아침 맛있고.. 거기다 요금 낼때 이달러 없다고 하니 그냥 깍아준단다... 다시 어ㅏ도 이곳에 반드시 묶진 않겠지만 그럭저럭 가격대비 만족 ##### mr park ### 10/10 Excellent #### Maria, Auckland Sep 29, 2013 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Awesome hostel, great location & v friendly staff. Really warm welcome on arrival, room was nice & clean, big locker under bed & wifi pretty good too. Perfect location right off restaurant & bar strip. Totally recommend best restaurant as Albura Kathisma and best bar as Sultan Cafe across the road (sometimes you get sparklers when you order Raki)!! Really close or easy walking distance to most main attractions. Highly recommend the Cistern & a Bosphorous boat trip (you can haggle down to 10 Euro). Stay away from the palace & mosques early morning unless you want to be amongst bus after bus loads of group tours (and cant look or take photos of anything). Would def stay at Big Apple again when come back to visit Istanbul :) ##### Maria ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [The Marmara Pera](https://www.expedia.ca/Istanbul-Hotels-The-Marmara-Pera.h11691.Hotel-Information) > > [Radisson Blu Hotel, Istanbul Sisli](https://www.expedia.ca/Istanbul-Hotels-Radisson-Blu-Hotel.h6250043.Hotel-Information) > > [Radisson Hotel President Old Town Istanbul](https://www.expedia.ca/Istanbul-Hotels-Radisson-President-Beyazit-Istanbul.h9345.Hotel-Information) > > [Elite World Grand Istanbul Kucukyali ](https://www.expedia.ca/Istanbul-Hotels-Elite-World-Asia-Hotel.h26886285.Hotel-Information) > > [JW Marriott Istanbul Bosphorus](https://www.expedia.ca/Istanbul-Hotels-JW-Marriott-Istanbul-Bosphorus.h42641512.Hotel-Information) > > [CVK Park Bosphorus Hotel Istanbul](https://www.expedia.ca/Istanbul-Hotels-CVK-Park-Bosphorus-Hotel-Istanbul.h6055713.Hotel-Information) > > [Swissotel The Bosphorus Istanbul](https://www.expedia.ca/Istanbul-Hotels-Swissotel-The-Bosphorus-Istanbul.h889869.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Hyatt Istanbul](https://www.expedia.ca/Istanbul-Hotels-Grand-Hyatt-Istanbul.h14428.Hotel-Information) > > [The Marmara Taksim](https://www.expedia.ca/Istanbul-Hotels-The-Marmara-Taksim.h26048.Hotel-Information) > > [Elite World Istanbul Taksim ](https://www.expedia.ca/Istanbul-Hotels-Elite-World-Istanbul-Taksim.h1181264.Hotel-Information) > > [Conrad Istanbul Bosphorus](https://www.expedia.ca/Istanbul-Hotels-Conrad-Istanbul-Bosphorus.h15234.Hotel-Information) > > [Four Seasons Hotel Istanbul at the Bosphorus](https://www.expedia.ca/Istanbul-Hotels-Four-Seasons-Hotel-Istanbul-At-The-Bosphorus.h1856092.Hotel-Information) > > [Barcelo Istanbul](https://www.expedia.ca/Istanbul-Hotels-Barcelo-Istanbul.h32516024.Hotel-Information) > > [Divan Istanbul](https://www.expedia.ca/Istanbul-Hotels-Divan-Istanbul.h4601.Hotel-Information) > > [Fairmont Quasar Istanbul](https://www.expedia.ca/Istanbul-Hotels-Fairmont-Quasar-Istanbul.h16385021.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Istanbul Bomonti Hotel & Conference Center](https://www.expedia.ca/Istanbul-Hotels-Hilton-Istanbul-Bomonti-Hotel-Conference-Center.h6226720.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Istanbul Bosphorus](https://www.expedia.ca/Istanbul-Hotels-Hilton-Istanbul-Bosphorus.h20867.Hotel-Information) > > [Sheraton Istanbul City Center](https://www.expedia.ca/Istanbul-Hotels-Sheraton-Istanbul-City-Center.h38329865.Hotel-Information) > > [Pera Palace Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Istanbul-Hotels-Pera-Palace-Hotel.h20555.Hotel-Information) > > [Istanbul Marriott Hotel Sisli](https://www.expedia.ca/Istanbul-Hotels-Istanbul-Marriott-Hotel-Sisli.h6771400.Hotel-Information) > > [Romance Istanbul Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Istanbul-Hotels-Romance-Istanbul-Hotel.h527413.Hotel-Information) > > [InterContinental Istanbul by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Istanbul-Hotels-InterContinental-Istanbul.h521137.Hotel-Information) > > [The Ritz-Carlton, Istanbul](https://www.expedia.ca/Istanbul-Hotels-The-Ritz-Carlton.h565576.Hotel-Information) > > [Dorne Suite Taksim](https://www.expedia.ca/Istanbul-Hotels-Dorne-Suite-Taksim.h38494876.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Cevahir Hotel & Convention Center](https://www.expedia.ca/Istanbul-Hotels-Grand-Cevahir-Hotel-Convention-Center.h972529.Hotel-Information) > > [Wyndham Grand Istanbul Kalamis Marina Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Istanbul-Hotels-Wyndham-Grand-Istanbul-Kalamis-Marina-Hotel.h5484206.Hotel-Information) > > [Niles Hotel Istanbul - Special Class](https://www.expedia.ca/Istanbul-Hotels-Niles-Hotel-Istanbul-Special-Class.h1583001.Hotel-Information) > > [Sofitel Istanbul Taksim](https://www.expedia.ca/Istanbul-Hotels-Sofitel-Istanbul-Taksim.h42400472.Hotel-Information) > > [Doubletree By Hilton Istanbul Old Town](https://www.expedia.ca/Istanbul-Hotels-Doubletree-By-Hilton-Istanbul-Old-Town.h3758303.Hotel-Information)
