Nostalji Hostel Cafe

Ok I’ll be very objective with the review. I’ve been to 70+ countries and this could be one of the filthiest hostel bathrooms I’ve ever encountered. The smell is toxic and they try to hide it with some fabreeze. Also the rooms are so crowded you can barely walk, they tried to fit more than enough beds to make money. Also, I was eaten alive by mosquitoes and I believe there are bed bugs but I’m not 100% sure. Staff is 10/10 friendly, the location is like 3 min great and you get 2 FREEE meals!

Cheaper than most hostels in Istanbul but definitely not worth it. First of all, many of the photos are AI retouched, not representing the place well. The place reeks with stench. Rooms are so crowded that and no ventilation. Beds are literally infested with bedbugs, I have so many bedbug bites that I am on medication right now. water in bathroom smells like moss. Just pay $2 more daily and stay in somewhere better than this literal dungeon. I wouldn't stay here if they paid me.
