Total honesty the bar is really not a bar it’s a kitchen with staff working till 11 on some days not all days. This hostel has a homeless man leaving in the dorm we stayed in. This hostel is definitely not lively. If your looking to Vacation and sleep at 10pm this is the place but if your looking for excitement there was none here. The staff were amazing no doubt. Me personally I’d look for something better more social and lively. Good luck on your search
Habe vom Personal nicht das Gefühl bekommen, dass sie mir helfen wollen, sondern eher das sie den maximalen Gewinn erzielen wollen. An sich ist das Hostel sauber und gut, frühstück auch sehr gut.
I have not got the feeling from the staff that they want to help me, but rather that they want to achieve the maximum profit. The hostel itself is clean and good, breakfast is also very good.
Very disorganized. We booked a 4 bed hostel months prior, yet at check in we were told there was a mistake made and that they can only accommodate us in a 10 bed hostel. As a foreign traveler you pretty much have no choice. The air conditioner also was not working. They also overbooked our 10 bed and were asking females if they would like to switch to a four bedroom female dorm. No Locks for doors so anyone could walk into your room, shower curtains were moldy.
La ubicación super céntrica y cercana a los lugares de interés y tiendas.
The super central location and close to the sights and shops.
I stayed in the same private room I had two years ago. I felt right at home! It was a splurge for my budget, but I loved it!
+ Staff was helpful, allowing me to check in later and giving good advices. - Bed in dorms have curtains but mine was broken - it is hard to go to the toilet without walking in water from shower cabin. A bit disappointed but the friendly staff made up for it.
Très bon séjour. L’auberge est plutôt propre. Très bien situé à côté des sites touristiques d’Istanbul. Petit déjeuner correct. Il n’y a cependant pas une ambiance « auberge ».
Very good stay. The hostel is rather clean. Very well located next to the tourist sites of Istanbul. Breakfast correct. It does not have an atmosphere hostel however.
Despite good location and previous reviews, we dont recommend to female travellers. Front door was frequently left open and no keys used for the rooms. It felt unsafe as anyone from the street could enter the hostel. Staff didnt check who was coming in/out of the premises. During our 3 night stay, we experienced 3 power outages and the staff never apologised for this inconvenience. My friend woke up to a man touching her and the solution given by staff was to move to a bigger dorm room.
great location, the staff was really nice, free breakfast in the morning
Agora provided everything it promised - bed, breakfast, close proximity to Blue Mosque/Haiga Sophia. Somethings to note - rooms were tinny, no common area, no atmosphere, at least 5-10mins walk from trams, bathrooms were shared mens/womens

Muy cómodo y muy buena la limpieza y disposición de los baños. Todos súper amables.
Very comfortable and very good the cleanliness and arrangement of the bathrooms.
Séjour très agréable, le petit dejeuner est inclus dans le prix ce qui rend cet établissement très attractif !!
Very pleasant stay, breakfast is included in the price which makes this property very attractive !!
Calm, cozy and central hostel. It’s not a party or suuuper social hostel (in case that’s what you’re looking for). But I really enjoyed staying here. The staff was sweet and I had some great conversations with other guests over the delicious daily breakfast Great location and you can reach the biggest tourist attraction easily by walking. Really happy with my stay!
excellent location
Great location right next to the Mosques and Bazaar -- easy to get the the other parts of Istanbul via bus, tram or ferry. Very secure and clean. I enjoyed the terrace and the hearty breakfast!
This place was perfect. Clean, comfy beds (capsule style with blackout curtain for privacy) and the breakfast buffet was varied and so so good. Location is perfect, in the centre and close to many tourist things, but the area still felt calm. Not a sociable atmosphere in the hostel but then again I didn’t join any events, so you could definitely meet people if you made the effort to join events/use Hostelworld app :) would highly recommend
Ich war sehr zufrieden, sehr nette und hilfsbereite Mitarbeiter. Die Zimmer sind sauber und bieten sehr gute und sichere Verwahrungsmöglichkeiten für Gepäck. Das Frühstück ist abwechslungsreich und die Lage perfekt.
I was very satisfied, very neat and helpful Staff. the Rooms are clean and offer very good and safe storage facilities for luggage. the Breakfast is varied and the location is perfect.
An Amazing breakfast for that price! Kind personel
Es un buen hostal, la ubicación es perfecta, muy cerca de las mezquitas principales, el personal es amable, realmente no creo que sea un hostal muy social jaja, subí par de veces a la terraza y el ambiente estaba bastante apagado pero igual es un buen lugar
It's a good hostel, the location is perfect, very close to the main mosques, the staff is friendly, really don't think it's a very social hostel hahaha, I went up a couple of times to the terrace and the atmosphere was pretty subdued but still it's a good place
Clean, comfortable beds, easy walking distance to main attractions, plenty to do nearby. Lockers under bed were spacious and big enough for large bags. Curtains were a nice touch.
Awesome location within walking distance to many attractions. The staff were great and very helpful with local recommendations. The dorm rooms do not lock but there are lockers in the rooms. The only washroom for the dorms is in the basement and is shared female/male. The female dorm was small but clean. The top bunks do not have much head room. Included breakfast was great and is served on the rooftop! Overall had a good stay.
Great place to stay! Nice and quiet hostel. The staff were super lovely and always very helpful! The room was nice & clean! Would definitely recommend staying here!
The staff is attentive and knowledgeable. The bed and pillow were very comfortable for me and breakfast has everything you need to start up your day.
Close to the main tourist attractions! Wonderful
It's such a cozy hostel, breakfast on the terrace is fantastic. The location is ideal. I would stay here again and recommend it. Thank you everyone there!
Hostello molto carino e funzionale, le stanze spaziose e dotate di tutti i confort. La posizione è dentro il centro storico e pochi minuti dalle principali attrazioni. Colazione abbondante e molto variegata Terrazza ampia dov’è anche possibile lavorare in tutta tranquillità. Personale gentile e molto disponibile. Super consigliato se devi anche lavorare!

I would stay in this hostel again without a doubt. The location is perfect almost everything, the staff very friendly, attentive and responsible. The room is very nice and they have curtains on each bed for privacy that I really liked, and locker rooms under the bed very large with integrated work to store things, the bathroom always clean, the breakfast I really liked, so for me it was 10/10
