Although the dorm rooms are a bit cramped, the beds are comfortable and the shared bathrooms well maintained and exceptionally clean. Much of the lounging, if you decide to do so, can be done in the rather large cafe seating area on the lower floor. That’s also where a large, standard Turkish breakfast is served in the mornings, complimentary for guests. There is also free wireless throughout the hostel and to-order food served during the afternoon and evening hours. The location in Sirkeci is near a number of bars, restaurants, and shops which are open a bit later than you would find in Sultanahmet.
