Merkezi, rahat ve kullanışlı

Resepsiyondaki kişiler çok yardımcı her konuda. Odam da rahattı, içinde banyo mevcuttu. Genel kullanıma açık olan mutfak kullanışlı. Merkezi konumda oluşu da avantaj sağladı. Tekrar kalırım. Teşekkürler.

Dikkat

İki kişilik tek büyük yataklı oda rezervasyonu yapmıştık. Odayı görünce bi baktık 2 tane tek yataklı oda var. İtiraz ettik, eleman tamam ben halledicem dedi, sonra gitti yatakları birleştirdi dalga geçer gibi. Resepsiyondakiler türk değil paki, yarım yamalak türkçe biliyorlar. Bu yaptığınız aldatmaca, biz böyle yapmadık rezervasyonu diyince de abi ilk gelenlere veriyoruz büyük yatakları gibi bir şey dedi, o ne öyle köşe kapmaca gibi. Temizlik açısından iyi, taksim meydana 3 dakika ama rezervasyon yaparken yatak işini iki kez düşünün derim.

6/10 Good

A bit overpriced, but good location

After some issues at the airport, we booked at the very last minute around midnight but the staff was really helpful. We didn't get the room we booked though, and it was all quite pricey for what we got

The whole building condition is below standard. It was not clear in the Ad that the toilet is public!
5-night trip

8/10 Very good

The staff was very friendly, the hostel itself is centrally located to a lot of nice places in Taksim, and the room was quiet and private. The lack of air conditioning was somewhat problematic, and I had a hard time sleeping at night because of it.

Sergio, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Bir gece için güzel bir yerdi.Tek sıkıntı kaldığımız odada rutubet kokusu vardı.Gece biraz üşüdük ama çok büyük bir problem değildi. Çift kişilik yatak iki tek kişilik yatağın birleştirilmesiyle oluşturulmuş. Ortaya denk gelince can sıkıcı oluyor fakat çalışanın ilgili olması kötü olan şeyleri unutturdu açıkçası.
