Pros and Cons
The staff is extremely friendly and the traveler roommates were super awesome, caring, and disciplined. The cleanliness needs severe attention. The linens weren't changed. Baby cockroaches everywhere. Shower doors don't close completely, letmading water to stagnant outside of the shower area. The bathroom needs massive cleanliness of both floor and walls.

Overnight stay
The room is basic and have no toiletries of any kind !! AC is not bad and the place is accessible by public transportation , my reservation was includes breakfast which they didn't serve due to corona situation but they didn't even mention that while booking , which could affect my booking decision as there was better options but not include breakfast which I didn't get after all !!

Hiç temiz değil hiç bir anlamda, ne yatak ne çarşaf ne yastık ne WC ne de duş kabini. Hobisi aşırı derecede pislik içinde. Hakkaten nasıl 7.2 aldığını anlamış değilim. Fiyatı düşük görünce biraz uzak olduğu İçin düşündüm fakat vasıfsız olduğu İçin fiyat öyleymiş.

You're doing us a lot of injustice. Our hostel is right next to the very center of Turkey's most famous and most crowded square, and we attach great importance to security issues. You may be partly right in terms of cleanliness. Although we care very much about cleaning, some of our guests' complaints make us sad. But we will consider your criticism and thank you.

It’s a hostel so we had tempered expectations. The staff is awesome! Plenty of advice on transit, loaned us (transit) cards and umbrellas, good conversation, and snacks/coffee. Located near bustling Taksim Square. Helped arrange transport to the airport. Nice little family bakery right across the street.

I camera mancavano sia asciugamani che phone (nonostante che al momento della prenotazione glielo avessimo chiesto). Sono dovuta andare due volte in reception a chiederli prima di averli. Alle 3 di notte volevo fare una doccia ma l'acqua era fredda. Alla richiesta di spiegazioni: il boiler è spento, lo riaccendiamo domattina, mi dispiace". Poi davanti a me "lo accendono" (anche se a questo punto ho dei dubbi) e mi dicono che dovrebbe esserci l'acqua calda. Ovviamente non è così. Risultato. doccia GELATA con febbre a 39 annessa il giorno seguente. Grazie infinite e A MAI PIU'.
