Good to stay for short travel.(2 or 3 days)
The location of hotel is near by cafe and bar street.
The hotel room itself was avarage. However, the guy who manages hotel was just Awesome. He introdused lots of infomation about local Istanbul.
Great location super convenient and close to multiple restaurants and coffee shops walkable little city and super hipster. We definitely liked this stay and the room was comfortable and quiet.
la struttura è situata in un'ottima posizione per visitare a piedi il centro della città ed è su una stradina piena di locali per trascorrere piacevoli serate. E' pulito bagno con doccia grande e piacevole letto comodo.

Yo reservé en la zona de KARIKOY, al llegar al hostel no tenían constancia de la reserva hecha 6 meses atrás.... Se excusaron por cambio del sistema informático!!! Nos desplazaron en taxi en otro hostel de misma cadena al otro lado del Bósforo, el cual no teníamos la habitación en el mismo hostel sinó que teníamos que desplazarnos dos calles arriba para dormir y volver al otro para desayunar!!!!
Eso sí.... La ubicación de 10, estábamos a dos minutos de la Mezquita Azul y el centro histórico!!!
La habitación, muy limpia!!!
Si vuelvo a Estambul, volvería al mismo establecimiento del barrio de Luthanamet
Superb location, clean and spacious rooms. Staff always friendly and polite. Lots of nice restaurants, cafes and shops nearby. Close to ferry and train station. Excellent value for money.
Great location. Friendly staff. Decent rooms. Super comfy beds! Restrooms are shared with just two or three other rooms, and they are cleaned daily & in good condition. Breakfast is good! Heads up— there are many flights of stairs depending on where your room is, but it’s not really an issue!
Die Lage des Cheers Porthouse ist super um Abends auszugehen. Dadurch ist es etwas lauter wenn man schlafen möchte. Hat uns aber nicht gestört. Und auch so war es sehr zentral gelegen für unsere Unternehmungen.
Good location, but staff were often absent so often not available to help with questions. Breakfast was nice, but started quite late and was in a rather small kitchen area. The room was nice with a large bed, but the duvet was too small for the bed.
Clean room, with interesting details, but with no view at all. Still, it was pleasant to stay with my wife and two small kids. Breakfast ok. Host helpful, English speaking. Bit hard to reach by car, you need to cruise couple inches away from restaurants tables and crowd, but parking lot close enough (charge 30 TL per day or better say half a day). Bunch of restaurants and cafes in the same street. Close to Galata bridge.
It is a budget accommodation with a central location. Five minutes walk to Galata, 3 minutes to tram station and just 2 minutes to a large tram station that brings you almost anywhere. The rooms and breakfast are quite basic though. Some rooms come without bathrooms so read carefully when booking. Cleanliness is moderate, provisions basic. But price and location is prime so depends on what you prioritize. We had a decently comfortable sleep, nothing to write home about other than that.
Je conseille vraiment cet établissement situé à côté du pont galata et de la tour et 20 30 min de tous les sites phare le personnel était très accueillant endroit très propre vraiment je le recommande !
Cet hotel arnnaque Expedia et ses clients .fausse publicite tres vetuste aucunes fenêtres au chambres visitées toilettes et douches communes dans un couloir. Attention moi je me suis fait piéger par des faux commentaires dès hotels de cet états ne doivent plus exister dans dès catalogues de voyages

Von der Lage ,super gelegen.
Unser Zimmer hatte schon den einen oder anderen Feuchtigkeitsschaden.
In unserem Zimmer leider kaum Wlan,wir waren wohl zu weit weg.
Frühstück,war Okay, wenn man auf Instantkaffee steht.Viel Auswahl war nicht.
Kein Fahrstuhl,was für Leute die nicht mehr so gut zu Fuß sind echt hart sein kann. Ansonsten war es OK.
Tolle Lage, sehr zentral und tolle Erreichbarkeit zu vielen Sehenswürdigkeiten! Hilfsbereites und herzliches Personal! Preis-Leistungsverhältnis passt, wenn man keine großen Erwartungen an das Hostel hat. Haben es nur zur Übernachtung benutzt und waren den ganzen Tag unterwegs.
Hotel was full and they did allow my guest in . I went to another hotel

Nur zu Not
Zum übernachten reicht es aus. Man darf nicht zu viel erwarten. Nochmal würde ich es nicht buchen. Letztendlich war der günstige Preis ausschlaggebend. Wir hatten das Familienzimmer im erstdn Stockwerk welches zwar Fenstef hatte jedoch draussen war alles zu gebaut. Die Toilettd hatte kein Fenster. Die Einrichtung war in Ordnung. Das Frühstück sehr abgespeckt.
