    Never have I found such a good hostel for such a low price. The area is nice, especially for mornings with superb breakfasts. The doromitory was fresh and has AC that kerps the temperature down when it gets too hot. But the best part with the hostel is the staff. All of them speaks good english and are super friendly. I always felt welcomed when entering their office + they let me store my instrument there. If I come back to Istanbul I will for sure use this hostel. Take care guys. // Daniel

    Good and old-fashioned (in a good way) place. Stayed there for three nights before travelling to India & Nepal and liked nearly everything. Ideal introduction to the city.

    I like the location of near the ferry. Kitchen is the only common area but smoking is allowed. Smokers are careless and do not clean up. When I left on 14 Dec at 12:20, the receptionist is very rude. I have been travelling all over Turkey. People are friendly and helpful and this man is terrible. Better management and training are needed.

    Sockets next to beds and a small shelf for a smartphone. A big locker included and keys for lockers are provided. The locker can carry a big backpack. Hot water in showers. A good terrace upstairs. It has heaters for cold seasons. There exists a kitchen. It's a lounge zone as well. But the same time the terrace is using for smoking. It can be uncomfortable to seat there for work or pleasure. Tea in bags are included. Towels and slippers for rent.

    Zum alleine nächtigen für ein paar Tage ist’s okay. Kein Luxus oder anderer Schnickschnack, aber ist für dein Preis nicht zu erwarten. Wifi geht mal, mal geht’s nicht. Dafür ist man direkt mitten in Beşiktaş. Personal usw sind nett und hilfsbereit.

    I stayed in the hostel, I had a bed In 8 beds room. In my review I want to focus on two things: 1. Cleaning of the beds were very good, I saw how they clean bedspread and replace them every morning for the newcomers. 2. Trustiness: I made a reservation for three-night, when I came to them they said that there is just a reservation for two nights!!!!!! That was horrible to me, then they said you are lucky that there is a person cancelled its reservation!!!!! and you can have a three-night... !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! In fact, I was in force to stay in their hostel because I saw another hostel but it was disgusting and I was tired with a lot of bags. Anyway: - room and showers cleaning: acceptable for a hostel. - privacy: good✅ (there was a curtain in my bed) - Wifi: available✅ - closet: available ✅ - electrical outlet: available✅ (near every bed) - roommate: it differs, in my staying every one was good with no sound ✅ except a guy I think he comes from India or near, he was making a lot of noise from his phone. Because of the trusting issue, I wanted to remove more than one star, but because I get a comfortable night when I was coming back to my clean bed at the last of the day, I just remove one star 🌟.

    The problem is in the right room private looked out Medivana Pub. The Pub made a noise for almost five hours. They are good and helpful but they didn't respect the rights. I've stayed in a big private room cost me 500 turkish lira and move to small room costs me 400 turkish lira but I've paid for 500 lira for 9 nights. So I should take the remaining from the stay in other small room.

    I want to thank hostel administration for their friendly attitude toward 5 of us! Especially thanks for organizing for us "special" car to the airport and for your help with the luggage! You are great! And the place is very lovely surrounded with a lot of different cafes! Thanks a lot!

    Cheap but also not particularly comfortable. The room we were in was very small, there was a queen size bed and barely anything else could fit into the room. Getting around the room was very difficult. Location is good, in the center of the vibrating Besiktas.

    Very neat and clean. The owner is very kind and speaks English well. Electronic keys for entrance and very big lockers. Some details like the showers could be improved. Also keep in mind that there is a lot of noise at night because it's in the centre.

    The hostel is nice. Very noisy,because it is in the main area and streets are full with people and restaurants. The room was clean 👌, but the dush was broken.There were clean towels ,two little bottles with shampoo and showerdush . At night was full with people and opposite the room there is a pub club,and all night was music show. 🎶

    Nice place to stay in Bekistas We ordered a single room, but hotel manager gave us superior room. It is spacious and comfortable, air conditioner, shower and a little kitchen with some utensils. Thanks for a great experience )

    In Addition to being city centre, the rooms are deeply clean and fresh. I attach importance to cleanliness the bathrooms and thanks to Puffin, i wasn’t disappointed.

    Not the cleanest but friendly staff, and in a really good area in Beşiktaş . In my opinion this is really a great place for men.

  • 4/5 Nicsy S. 2 years ago on Google
    A good place but the WIFI connection is the problem especially at night. Overall a good place to stay if you are in tight budget. There are lot of restaurants around Puffin so you will have a lot to choose from.

  • 5/5 Aneta P. 3 years ago on Google
    It is very nice, clean hostel. Located on nice, buzz area, where you can get a traditional Turkish breakfast, find a fruit market and many places where you can drink or eat. The staff was lovely, helpful and laidback. They could speak English. They have amazing terrace on the roof, which is an additional advantage of this hostel. From there you can see a beautiful view on roofs of neighbourhood. Also, they serve delicious Turkish breakfast for guests who order it.

  • 5/5 Leon van W. 8 years ago on Google
    The hostel's facilities are perfect (shower, WiFi in the rooms) and the staff is extremely friendly. It is located in a vibrant neighborhood, but the street where it's located is quiet at night. The hostel is close to bus and ferry stations and it is a short walk to the tram that takes you to Istanbul's historic centre. Would certainly recommend staying here!

    + Comfortable + Great location + Friendly staff + Easy access to restaurants and cafes - But the cleaning could be better .Just improve your cleaning - Don't expect good views of course

  • 1/5 Jens R. 1 year ago on Google
    The gentlemen at the reception speak good English and are very courteous, in contrast to the young woman who works the night shift... The room has no air conditioning, it is SUPER loud and clairaudient, you can hear the motorbikes and cars from the busy street which is 7 meters from the hostel... You don't want to go into the bathroom either because it smells very unpleasant and I have fungus wanted to avoid on the feet "Caution, only enter the bathroom with bathing shoes!! I am a very tolerant person but this accommodation is a letdown and not recommended. A TRAP

    The best place as a price-performance probably. I don't spouse another place will be better with this price. Terrace is a good rest place. I stayed in a shared room. I suggest 👌
