We were given the family room with two bunk beds, instead of a double and two single beds as expected. Very crampy, no table, no place for hanging out your stuff, hardly any curtains - people look straight into your room from rooftops on opposite side of the street, morning sun wakes you up very early. Staff is ok but... More

AMAZING staff, roof top and location. Highly recommend it for the budget conscious traveler. Staff went above and beyond for us. Much better than the sister hostel I stayed in next door. Staff was just amazing, and the view of the Marmara Sea is spectacular. Really close to Hagia Sofia and Blue Mosque and Palace. Fun hostel and better city

I have to agree with the earlier review of travelingmonkey; this place is nothing special and I kind of felt like the hospitality was very lacking, except for one of the staff members. We got in very early and asked about early check-in, but was told that was impossible. We were, however, asked to pay immediately, which was odd since... More

I stayed here 5 days and it was perfect for the solo traveler. I stayed in a 6 bedroom dorm. Good showers, bathrooms etc. Wifi was a little sketchy in the actual rooms, but simply hanging out in the common area, I had super strong wifi and very very fast. The breakfast was good. Staff knew English well and were... More

I stayed at this hostel for 5 nights with 3 friends. we had a private room with ensuite bathroom. both the bedroom and the bathroom were quite small but we were able to organise everything and it was okay. the staff is nice and the breakfast is really good, with many different choices including typical local dishes and continental breakfast....

Prices are very reasonable and rooms are fully equipped. Beds are very comfortable. Tasty breakfast is included in the price so it's one less thing to worry about in the morning :D Staff is very helpful and speaks perfect English. And the hostel's location couldn't be better - 3 minutes walk to Hagia Sophia, Blue Mosque, Topkapi Palace etc.

We decided to stay here for three nights since our first guesthouse was so noisy due to the next door's construction site. It's only a few metres down the road from our first. We're actually looking for a special deal since we're planning to stay for almost a month. But the manager - a tall guy - didn't even let... More

Great atmosphere, close to most of the attractions, excellent prices, and very friendly and helpful staff. Will visit there again for sure. The reception is open 24hrs. And the terrace cafe offers a good meal meal at a good price with an excellent view of the Bosphorus, and Asia :-)

OK what you should know is that there are lots of hotels and guesthouses at sultanahmet and when I was there (winter) it didn`t seem very crowded. If you arrive during daytime and have the time/ endurance I'd advise you to just hop off the metro at sultanahmet st. and wander through the streets until you find the best cost/quality... More
