Had a wicked time. Coolest part of Istanbul and Burak is super helpful and kind. Also soda is the cutest dog ever! Lots of cute cafes and bars around and stuff to see. Hours are fair and the shifts give you time to explore. Highly recommend!

I volunteered at the hostel twice, and loved both experiences. Firstly, you couldn't ask for a better manager than Burak. He was welcoming from the very start, kind, friendly, great on communication, and very flexible. The volunteering is easy going, and clear instructions are given. The team both times created a fun and vibrant atmosphere, and the activities each night kept the hostel lively. It is also located in Kadıköy, which is the hipster part of Istanbul and a very fun place to be located.

🌟 My time at the hostel was beautiful! I had the opportunity to work with a flexible schedule due to my personal circumstances, and the manager and all the staff were incredibly supportive of me. A big thank you to Kanzi, Ahmet, Nur, Onur, Mert, Necla, the owners, and especially the kind manager Burak for everything during my time there! Amazing people create an amazing environment, and that's exactly what I experienced. I will definitely remember this place and the moments I lived there for the rest of my life! ☀️

I enjoyed my time at the hostel so much!! The tasks are super easy and the team was lovely, i felt welcomed from the beginning on. Burak is doing an amazing job managing all of this. The hostel itself is super cozy with a nice little garden, animals and many common areas so chill at (i specifically fell in love with our balcony😌). Kadiköy, the neighborhood is probably one of the best parts of the city too at least in my opinion. Hoping to be back soon! 100% recommended 🤗🤗🧡
