| Ahmed the owner was very friendly, though occasionally difficult to understand. The location is perfect, a 5 min walk from the metro and only two blocks from tons of bars and restaurants on Istiklal Caddesi. | ||

| The hostel is good located, 5 minutes from Taksim square. The building is very nice, the room and WC were clean and the bed was comfortable. The owner and the staff are very friendly and helpful. I forgot my photo camera there and they managed to send it to me back in Spain. I would recommend it 100%. | ||

| Would definitely stay again! Ahmet really cares about the people staying in his hostel - he planned a trip to Cappadocia for me with a days notice and it was excellent. Transportation to and from, accommodation, hot air balloon ride, and tour all taken care of. Friendly, helpful staff (especially Alex!) and I had the chance to meet a lot of other travelers in the lounge. Great location right next to Taksim, access to tons of cheap food, bars, public transportation, and sights. Very clean & comfortable. I highly recommend it - thanks for a great stay Ahmet! | ||

| As usual the quality of the hostel very much depends on the people I meet there and in the country I visit. this hostel was good. The owner Ahmet was very friendly and helpful. My only comment is that i had to climb 4/5 flights of stairs to my room. As I am a septuagenerian this was not easy after a day of walking. | ||
