I really enjoy my tine in the hostel, the hostel is really nice, and the location is perfect for getting to know a fantastic city like Istanbul. Faruk is a really good guy who is always available to help. I recommend it

Being immersed in the center of a city like Istanbul helps you with mobility and provides you with alternatives to be able to socialize and immerse yourself in the culture. The diversity of cultures can be experienced with open hands in this hostel where every day you face meeting people from many places in the world. The tasks are what you can usually expect in a hotel environment. The infrastructure is old and during my stay the hostel maintained an adequate order and cleanliness, although that can also vary according to the travelers staying there. COMPLETELY IN LOVE the hostel. Buen lugar

It's a lovely place with a very chill vibe created by Faruk. He is great to work with and I had a good time there. The job and schedule are very flexible, Faruk is open to talk and help the staff. The location is perfect, very easy to reach different parts of the city. Thanks Faruk.

I had an amazing time in Istanbul, and volunteering at the hostel's made the experience unforgettable. Faruk, the host, is laid-back, flexible, and understanding. I always felt comfortable reaching out if I had any issues. Work among volunteers was well-distributed, and we organized tasks ourselves, which worked smoothly. If you prefer more structure, you might feel a bit lost at first, but Faruk ensured we were supported, respecting our work hours and days off. The hostel's warm vibe made it easy to meet new people and make friends. I'll miss the pets and the memories I made there.
