Guest Reviews
- MEHMET ÖZKAN (10/5): Good Feeling! - I only encountered two people. I didn't need any service. It was quiet and clean.
- Hüseyin Miran (2/5): - Berabat
- sinana (2/5): - Keine Seife in der Toilette , Zimmer war nicht gesäubert als ich ankam , Haare auf dem Bett. Einfach widerlich einmal und nie wieder
- MehmetKemal (2/5): Tavsiye etmem - Duşun bataryasının kolu kırık, wc çalışmıyor katta kapalı, muazzam derecede pis, mahalle kötü gece saat 2-4 polis gelyo olay olyo sıkıntılı bir lokasyon
- Francesca (2/5): - I camera mancavano sia asciugamani che phone (nonostante che al momento della prenotazione glielo avessimo chiesto). Sono dovuta andare due volte in reception a chiederli prima di averli. Alle 3 di notte volevo fare una doccia ma l'acqua era fredda. Alla richiesta di spiegazioni: il boiler è spento, lo riaccendiamo domattina, mi dispiace". Poi davanti a me "lo accendono" (anche se a questo punto ho dei dubbi) e mi dicono che dovrebbe esserci l'acqua calda. Ovviamente non è così. Risultato. doccia GELATA con febbre a 39 annessa il giorno seguente. Grazie infinite e A MAI PIU'.
- Aws (2/5): - It was very bad staying with this hostel
It's the most worse Hoste ever i had .
- Jennifer (10/5): Very friendly staff - Very kindhearted and friendly staff. Stood outside a long time to help me get a taxi. Thank you. 🙏
- Simon (2/5): - Horrible
- Verified traveler (8/5): Pros and Cons - The staff is extremely friendly and the traveler roommates were super awesome, caring, and disciplined.
The cleanliness needs severe attention. The linens weren't changed. Baby cockroaches everywhere. Shower doors don't close completely, letmading water to stagnant outside of the shower area. The bathroom needs massive cleanliness of both floor and walls.
- QUSSAY (10/5): - Great staff
- Trinn (8/5): - OK, just OK for cheap stay.
No breakfast as promised.
- Simon (6/5): - Staff were nice but the room had no window so it wa very stuffy. No sheets changed and room not cleaned. Classic style hostal on looks
- Abdalrahman (6/5): Overnight stay - The room is basic and have no toiletries of any kind !! AC is not bad and the place is accessible by public transportation , my reservation was includes breakfast which they didn't serve due to corona situation but they didn't even mention that while booking , which could affect my booking decision as there was better options but not include breakfast which I didn't get after all !!
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Very kind stuff and owner who like to have fun time and care about visitors a lot!
- Verified traveler (2/5): - Hiç temiz değil hiç bir anlamda, ne yatak ne çarşaf ne yastık ne WC ne de duş kabini. Hobisi aşırı derecede pislik içinde. Hakkaten nasıl 7.2 aldığını anlamış değilim. Fiyatı düşük görünce biraz uzak olduğu İçin düşündüm fakat vasıfsız olduğu İçin fiyat öyleymiş.
- aidana (10/5): - i was not going to stay because of commends,but it was good experience
- oussama (8/5): - Le personnel est très serviable, l'hôtel est bien situé par rapport à la place de Taksim. Il y avait juste malheureusement l'eau chaude qui ne fonctionnait pas pendant quelques heures.
- supinya (6/5): - 7 a.m. reception is sleeping at sofa, ring the bell is not work, have to shake the door. Private room is OK, soft bed, average clean, old towel, shower curtain...full of mold. no soundproof wall.
- Danil (10/5): - Отличный хостел в центре Таксима. Есть терраса и кухня. Много бекпекеров со всего мира, с которыми можно пообщаться.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - 少々清潔ではない所もありましたが、スタッフが親切でアクセスも良好だったため、また利用したいと思います。
- Verified traveler (4/5): - Parasına göre yer hostel tarzı yabancı avrupalı turist dolu bir yer beklemeyin suriyelerle kalıyorsunuz kafası saç ekim garabetine uğramış araplar oda arkadaşınız oluyor pislik içinde bir yatak ve oda kıl ve çöp içinde duvarları kabarmış yosun tutmuş bir tuvalet duş ve oda sizi karşılıyor olucak ucuz etin yahnisi mülteci kampı oluyor aklı olan bir türk parası yoksa gelsin yada hiç gelmesin hastane masraflarınız o parayı aşar zaten
- Verified traveler (8/5): - The place was strategic. Just 5 min walk from taksim city
- Uğur (10/5): Superb - Very good hostel. its clean quite and the beds are quite comfortable. İmran is one of the best hostel managers I've ever met. You can ask him about anything need.
- Aidin (10/5): - The best thing about this place is it's very kind and polite staff. The person in charge speaks English which is really important.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Warm welcome and helpful staff. 24 hours open. Great
- Naghi (6/5): - personel ve calisan arkadaslar cok yardimci. biz bir gecelik kalacaktik ama bizden once odamizda kalan misafirler cikis yapmayinca bizi yerlestiremediler. ama bize baska otel ayarladilar.
- Erkan (8/5): Tavsiye ederim. - Tipik bir hostel... KYK gibi düşünün. 4 kişilik- 6 kişilik odalar falan... Mesela ben 6 kişilik odada kalıyordum. Çinli, Rus, Pakistanlı arkadaşlarım oldu. Bı de Adanalı Almancı ... Güzel bir deneyim... Tavsiye ederim... Yalnız kahvaltı dahil demişler ama kahvaltı sayılmaz... Ama bu fiyata da bu deneyim kaçmaz. Resepsiyonda görevli olan arkadaş... Sanırım Fuzuli Bey'di... Samimi biri.
- birol (10/5): kesinlikle tavsiye ederim ortam cok sicak - aile gibi hersey cok guzel
- Serena (10/5): Very close to Taksim square - Good location to live the joyful area of Taksim.
- Rafael (10/5): Cool and easy to find - Very good place! Super nice people working there very helpful and kind! :)
- Verified traveler (10/5): - I truly enjoyed my time in Bella Vista. Great people, clean rooms, excellent community. Thanks!
- Verified traveler (8/5): - this property is costly
neighboring property is cheap and more comfortable
- Verified traveler (2/5): - El hostel PODRíA ser hermoso, tiene mucho potencial, pero está super sucio. Cuando llegué tuve que pedir que limpiaran mi cuarto, además de sucio y olor a cigarrillo había comida vieja en el locker. Cuando me levanté a desayunar me señalaron la cocina y nada mas, no entendí que debía hacer, no hay desayuno, o quizá hay que prepararlo uno, pero no hay ningún cartel..La señaletica que es poca, es re mala onda, me puso muy triste, ya que lo elegí por ser de la comunidad LGTB que en toda mi experiencia siempre es colaboradora y alegre.. pero esta fue la excepción.
- Verified traveler (2/5): - Das Hotel voll ekelhaft nicht sauber Service war nicht gut
- Abdullah (4/5): تجربة سيئة - الغرفة غير نظيقة واغطية السرير لا تغير طول مدة الاقامة روائح كريهة في الغرفة الحمام غير نظيف الافطار غير جيد الايجابية الوحيدة قربه من محطة ترام وشارع الاستقلال تجربة لن تتكرر
- Rafael (8/5): Buen Hostel en Istanbul - Un Hostel muy correcto. Tienen un buen espacio común, muy agradable. Desayuno sencillo.
- Verified traveler (2/5): - the hostel was no clean, it was too dearty. the location of the hostel not safe
- Elena (8/5): - Очень не приятная атмосфера в данном хостеле, персонал не особо следит за чистотой и порядком, грязно, шумно, тараканы.
- RD (2/5): Empfehle ich keinem! - unsere Ankunft war eine grosse Katastrophe. Wir kamen dort an, und wollten in unsere Zimmer für die wir schon bezahlt hatten.
Der Hotel besitzer meinte , er habe kein e-mail von Expedia erhalten und dass er keine Zimmer hätte. Die ganze Zeit wiederholte er, dass alles Expedias schuld wäre. Später meinte er , er habe eine Ersatz gefunden, und es wäre besser als sein Hotel und später er wäre nie da gewesen. Wir kamen in einem Apart-Hotel an wo die Decke vor Feuchtigkeit langsam zusammen fiel.
Das Apart-Hotel wurde von einem Jungen Man betrieben, die waren total nett aber die Apartments waren ein schock für uns. Sie mussten in rekord zeit das Apartment putzen, natürlich war die sauberkeit dem entsprechend.
Ich konnte einmal das Früchstück probieren, es ist kein büfe, alle Hotel gäste bekommen ein Teller , wo soviel essen ist, dass noch nicht mal ein klein kind davon satt werden könnte.
Die Lage ist nähe Taksim aber sau gefährlich, Nachts kommen die Frauen raus die sich verkaufen. Wir wurden schon gewarnt , dass wir aufpassen sollen , weil die Gegend gefährlich sei.
Ich empfehle das Hotel garnicht, gibt lieber 20€ mehr geld aus , als sich so etwas gefallen zu lassen .
- Çen (8/5): Nice location - Very close to Taksim. Staffs are friendly and helpful. They are not Turkish. They speak English well. But during my stay, I saw some cockroaches. Toilets are dirty and a bit of broken. Very hot in the room. Rooftop is a nice place.
- 123 (8/5): - Good staff location and price
Good choice if you are a backpacker
- Scott (8/5): - It’s a hostel so we had tempered expectations. The staff is awesome! Plenty of advice on transit, loaned us (transit) cards and umbrellas, good conversation, and snacks/coffee. Located near bustling Taksim Square. Helped arrange transport to the airport. Nice little family bakery right across the street.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Bed and Shelter. - Location with this price is good, Wifi good, electric socket and lamp good. Bathroom good. The room space is good not narrow.
But,
The beds not sorted and not cleaned!? . There's cat and fixed hole in the window (can't close). All the lockers have same key (one key can open all of them) and tight my bag didn't fit in.
- Verified traveler (8/5): . - Tuvaleti biraz kirliydi ama odalar normal. Fiyat performans olarak iyi sayılır.
