Great experience at the hostel, great location and the rooftop was top notch to hosts events and meet ups with guests, the comedy show and vibe was pretty unique. Everything is walkable and I had a blast in Istanbul thanks to the staff, Selah and Mesut. Thank you guys!

It is a really nice Hostel to socialize and make friends, the rooftop is beautiful and If they have a nice cook and bartender at the moment (cheers to me and Fabi) you can have really good food and drinks for a cheap price compared to the rest of the area (It's at the heart of the very touristic european side). Comedy Nights are awesome (Cheers to Selah) and the general vibe of the hostel is very chill. It could be better in terms of organization and cleanliness (But it is still one of the cheapest accomodations in Istambul with a Nice breakfast). I would for sure comeback to the hostel.

From day 1 the communication was lacking. Host showed up late to relieve my shift, never received a schedule, when I had a day off the host let me know a few hours before my shift. Over the course of 3 weeks I accumulated 50 hours overtime. The host promised to pay me for those hours but hasn't done so to this day. The accomodation wasn't very comfortable. The bathrooms were out of order, dirty and smelly. The bedroom was stuffy since the AC was broken. All in all a very disappointing, exploitative experience.

We enjoyed our stay at the hostel, the team was friendly, the hostel has a cool vibe and we got to meet many friendly travellers whilst staying in a great location. The work was very chill, though we did feel the communication could be better around what they expected from their volunteers and what they asked for initially. But overall we had a great time, you get to go along to the pub crawls and boat parties and they host comedy shows and live music on the roof terrace, a great place if you like meeting new people and having fun. We enjoyed our stay here and would definitely recommend.
