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.

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. The location is perfect although you can't walk to the hotel without being hassled by the street vendors since the main fare is filled with restaurants and rug stores. ##### B ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller May 6, 2014 ##### Verified traveller ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Crowne Plaza Istanbul - Old City by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Istanbul-Hotels-Crowne-Plaza-Istanbul-Old-City.h2211742.Hotel-Information) > > [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)
