Taksim Square Hostel

As a guest in this hostel who spent 2 entire weeks there, I would say that apart from the room quality, what I liked most was the kind and supportive staff, who waited for me from night until morning for my arrival at the hostel. Just please stay in touch and keep updating them if you have a big delay like I did. ;) The staff were great, super cool, and kind while respecting your privacy, providing a secure environment (especially in a mixed dormitory room) with cameras (privacy protected) all the time. Based on my experience, you could meet different people and travelers in the mixed dormitory room and enjoy all the facilities. What amazed me the most, and what I would advise everyone, is that if you are looking for the most affordable hostel near Taksim, do not forget this hostel and, depending on your circumstances, keep an eye on the mixed dormitory room! ;) It is also worth mentioning that the restrooms, bathrooms, beds, and blankets were always clean. You can surely cook any international food, sit on the sofa, and talk with the other guests. There was everything you needed in the kitchen: an electric kettle, a refrigerator, a gas stove, a washing machine, dishes, pots, and pans, which were always clean and available. I hope that if you book this hostel, you will enjoy it!!!

Good location, clean shared bathroom (with automatic plastic liner on toilet seat!), and most importantly a simple but sturdy and very well made bed with crisp clean cotton bedsheets and a warm blanket. The staff member on duty was very polite and I was lucky that my fellow occupants were quiet, decent and considerate. I felt safe and reasonably comfortable. I would stay there again if I am on a budget.

The dormitory space and common area, which were in the basement, were really quite tight, and might be quite uncomfortable if there were rowdy/ loud/ unwashed/ sick occupants (thankfully this did not happen to me). The locker space is good for a small backpack only, and cannot fit a stabdard cabin bag. There was only 1 common bathroom/toilet for the 10 bunk beds. It takes awhile for messages to be replied, and there was only 1 staff on duty when I was there, so it took over half an hour for me to receive a response so that I could check out, even though it was around 10am. Far from perfect, but all in all, by international standards, slightly above average for a shared dorm, but reasonable at at this price.

The hostel staff are nice and very attentive, they are caring.

The owner and staff was really nice and helpful,good location

Its a gamble with the people you get with,had a guy snoring so loud i couldnt sleep fall asleep for 3 hours,also the toilet needs some work,its okay the water is warm in the shower but its leaking on the floor
