Internet Access 24 hour reception
for international backpackers, and exchange students,
we have private single rooms, and dorm rooms with the opportunity to come and go 24 hours, kitchen facilities complete with everything you need to cook, fridge, washing machine, guitar, drum, free internet access, wireless, small library, hot water from solar energy panel (rarely found in istanbul), vacuum cleaner, maps of istanbul you can borrow,
this is not a common hostel.. the atmosfere is much more familiar, informal and homely then usual hostels,
this mostly because, as well as travellers, there are people living long term in the home, sharing everyday life and things.
it's a home, we usually eat all together, go out in the nights together, and join for some small trips in the weekends..
Best of all, we give you the opportunity to meet fellow students, backpackers and travellers, in this fascinating city. There is a common room on the last floor where we all eat together and share our stories and time.
COFFEE AND TEA ARE FREE
We are a laid back, relaxed, and easy going place. Don't come expecting a five star hotel, but a friendly more family like atmosphere. We are friendly, we love each other, we are kind to each other, we never shout at each other. We believe that one thing will save the world, people loving other people, even those that hate them. P.S. This is not a religious place, we respect all religions, and lacks of them. We support animal rights.
