Guest Reviews
- Godoy (1/5): Intoxicada de gas, ruido hasta el amanecer, pila de basura en la habitación - Lo único bueno es la ubicación, pero lo demás es horrible Hay techos de basura por días sin retirar al interior de las habitaciones. En 7 dias nadie viene a hacer aseo del baño. Lo peor: algunas camas están cerca de las cañerías de gas y estas tienen fuga y hacen un ruido espantoso toda la noche. El personal de hostel no se sabe quién es o cuando viene, todo es muy sucio. Por las noches hay música hasta la madrugada proveniente de los sitios de fiesta que están en la misma calle. Leí que por el precio se justifica, pero no realmente, no se lo recomendaría a nadie nunca.
- Aleks (8/5): simple and cheap - for the price i can’t complain. bring your own towel, lock and earplugs.

- Matías Andrés (8/5): - Lo elegí por su ubicación y precio ya que tenía una escala nocturna en Estambul y quería conocer la ciudad. Solo lo usé de paso para dormir unas 4/5 horas, así que no vi lo suficiente como para una devolución completa. Sin embargo, lo que pude apreciar más que positivo.

- DMITRII (8/5): - Если бы можно поставить 20/10 за дружелюбность и атмосферу места - поставил бы с удовольствием.
Нереальный опыт взаимодействия с людьми разных культур и стран оставил положительные эмоции! Хостел есть хостел, не всем подходит возможность проживания с другими людьми в пространстве.
Бывают не очень приятные соседи, но в большинстве своем все отлично.
- Jingting (10/5): 非常推荐,是我在土耳其美好的回忆 - 氛围很好,大家都很友善,交到了有趣的朋友,提前到了老板也让我们提前入住,可以用厨房做饭,推荐
- Tatiana (8/5): - Want to tell good about location, price, but I have problem during the night, bed bags!!! Bed bags!!! Please do something and control beds

- Eryk (10/5): Once upon time in Istanbul - Klimat, granie w Yenga wieczorem, wygodne materace bardzo miękkie, czysto, właściciel zawsze pomocny, wrócę na 100%
- Chawki (10/5): Les gens aussi le mec Younes vraiment différent cool un bon vivant - Oui bien sûr c’est incroyable vraiment j’ai trop aimer Que du nettoyage
- zhefei (10/5): 性价比高 - 自助入住和退房,柜子带锁且很大。床很软,楼顶有厨房。有洗衣服务会收费。在这里认识了法国的朋友,晚上又在轮渡碰到,伊斯坦布尔真的很小。 周末附近酒吧会比较吵,可以确认有没有靠里的房间。
- Louise (3/5): Não vale o custo benefício, muito sujo. - Cama confortável com cortinas, localização boa e gerente gentil Hostel muito sujo. Com lixos nos banheiros e quartos com lixeiras transbordando por mais de 2 dias, além do cheiro ruim o frigobar também estava com comida estragada e mau cheiro. Ralos entupidos e sanitários sujos na maior parte do tempo. Apenas 2 banheiros em todo hostel e a limpeza não foi recorrente durante minha estadia de 4 dias. Cozinha engordurada com utensílios muito desgastados, sem microondas e fogão muito sujo. Entendo que a limpeza e organização também depende dos hóspedes, mas será bom haver uma equipe de limpeza e que a fizessem ao menos duas vezes no dia, já que são apenas dois banheiros pra tantas camas.
Apesar de não ter acontecido nada, não me senti segura com o fato de a senha da porta principal ser a mesma sempre, então mesmo quem já fez checkout pôde ter acesso novamente, já que as portas dos quartos eram sempre abertas.

- clement (1/5): - The staff stole some stuff. 100% sure it was the staff because the bed was done (i was there the night before) and nobody was there. The manager stopped repply to me but he was in the building and i could hear the notifications on the phone (i was being very nice on the messages) The staff stole some stuff. 100% sure it was the staff because the bed was done (i was there the night before) and nobody was there.

- loza (10/5): - Good hostel and there is a women cleans everyday and you can cook in the kitchen very good hostel
- Jo235 (8/5): Above average mixed dorm in a great location - Amazing location, just off the very cosmopolitan main shopping and embassies stretch of Istilkal Caddesi in European Istanbul;
Lots of good restaurants and pubs nearby (albeit all at very 'European prices');
Very reasonable rates;
Mixed dorm (great if travelling in a mixed group);
Well heated in winter, and nice clean bath towel provided!! Nothing major, but some minor considerations are:
Small common room on the 4th floor;
Small bathroom (which is a bit hard to change in if the previous user left the floor all wet);
Mixed dorm (this is published upfront, but could be a problem for people who can't fully change in the bathroom and don't want to put on half their clothes in a mixed dorm room).

Нас пустили только на один ночь а утром выселили так как я была с детьми 14 лет и 13 лет . У них типа это незаконно !

- Robert (4/5): Small hostel on different floors just off Istiklal street in Beyoğlu - Comfortable beds and curtains allowing some privacy. Overall the place was kept clean. Hot shower, Wifi worked well. Booked this hostel because the facilities included a shared kitchen, that indeed there was. However, it was too messy and unsuitable for use. Guests do not do their dishes and just put dirty pots, utensils and garbage into the sink. Shared kitchens in many hostels only work if they are closely supervised.
There is a disco close by. So noise levels are high even on weekdays until 2AM.
Check-in is after 2PM, but could not enter the building after ringing the bell. Only when another guest went in, we could.
- Bayo Moreno (5/5): - El personal fue muy amable en todo momento y los mensajes los responden en seguida Falta limpieza

- Issa (1/5): - Good location I see why this place is so cheap. Had to be let into the facility by another guest and then waited an hour for the receptionist to wake up after his boozy night of drinking to open up the “common area” which was just a kitchen and some cushions but filled with cans of beer. The receptionist would not let me check in early despite empty beds available and openly lied about it. Not sure how this place has such good reviews. Avoid at all costs

- Alibek (1/5): Не советую Moon Hostel - Хорошая локация! Чистота ноль, матрац не удобный, в номерах бардак и в четвертом этаже в зале тоже бардак. Не дают тапочки и полотенце! На втором этаже матрац проваливается не удобно! Подушка не удобная, одеяло с запахом! В туалете всегда бардак! Пришлось 2,5 дня терпеть! Не советую!

- Fabien (8/5): - Bien situé dans le centre, proche de la grande rue menant à Taksim. Chambres et sanitaires ok. Bon rapport qualité prix Cuisine plutôt sale (responsabilité notamment des autres clients) et peu adaptée pour se faire à manger.
- Moutaz (7/5): - Location, and very helpful stuff Floors and bathroom not clean
- Arthuro (8/5): - Bed, lockers, lobby... The hostel really needs rules like quiet time at night and cleaning up after yourself, otherwise you will have a bad sleep and dirty dishes, trash in the room. (To be honest, I slept in the airport better than there and for free 😁) Also, when it's the weekend (maybe all week, idk for sure), there are parties nearby and it's noisy, but people in the room who don't care about the roommates make alot more noise...

- Igor (1/5): Scammers - Nothing They refused me checkin upon my arrival allegedly because of overbooking. Obviously they didn't to care to inform me well in advance or offer some help to find another hostel. After i left they reported a no show to Booking

- el kejjaou (5/5): - المطبخ والباحة تغلق في منتصف الليل ولا تفتح الا بعد 2 زوالا المطبخ والباحة التي تغلق مبحرا ولا تفتح الا بعد الظهيرة مما يعيق برنامج رحلتنا ويأخرنا دوما

- heyitsjvonnie (1/5): Book Elsewhere - This is a flophouse. - I ended up leaving to another hotel as the place did not match the photos. The place was dirty and unkept, the staffing is non-existent. There was a smell right when you walked in and furniture was not is good shape.

- Luciana (7/5): Boa localização - A localização é boa, o check-in é prático e rápido A limpeza poderia melhorar, o colchão da cama que eu fiquei era velho e afundava, não era confortável. Tinha uma aviso de uso do chuveiro, 10 minutos, embora ninguém controlasse isso.

- Carlos (4/5): - No hay gente o persona que te atienda, el techo está con moho y en las dos noches que me quede en las dos noches a las 2 de la mañana acomodaban gente, prendían la luz, tendían camas. En pocas palabras no dejaban dormir
