It's the best hostel in Istanbul! From my own experience and from what I've seen with other volunteers, this place truly brings good luck. I met amazing people, the atmosphere is fantastic, and Mert is an excellent host with a great sense of humor and a lot of empathy. I'm very grateful for the opportunity, and I would recommend this experience. I'd be happy to return in the future.

The hostel is incredibly comfortable, offering much more than expected: a gym, a terrace with spectacular views, and a cinema. Perfect for digital nomads. The work is exactly as described, and schedules are respected. Mert is always attentive to what you enjoy and supports you in it. He offers 800 Turkish lira per week, plus extra free food in the pantry. Istanbul is magical on every corner. Thank you, Mert, for everything!

My experience at the coliving was amazing. Shifts are divided into morning (9–2), afternoon (2–7), and night (7–12). Mert gives 800 TL per person for groceries and often organizes group breakfasts or dinners. He genuinely cares about our well-being, always asking how we're doing, what we expect, and what we want to explore. He's really flexible. The work is simple but should be taken seriously and done responsibly :) I'm leaving this place with a full heart. Mert and the beautiful friends I made here turned my stay in Turkey into an unforgettable and very special experience.

I had an amazing experience volunteering at this hostel! The place is super clean, spacious, and incredibly organized. The work is easy and smooth, and the kitchen is just perfect—one of my favorite parts! The location is ideal, close to the metro and a climbing gym, which I absolutely loved. The owner is super kind, funny, and flexible, and really makes sure everyone is happy. Over time, he became like part of my family, and I'll always be grateful for that. I enjoyed my time so much that I'm already planning to come back next year

I loved my experience volunteering at the coliving and I already miss it. Mert and the other volunteers made me feel super welcome. The work instructions are clear, the schedule is set together, and the exchange is totally fair. The hostel is really comfortable and the facilities are great. Mert is super nice, respectful, flexible, and fun. I totally recommend this volunteer opportunity! Thanks, Mert!
