Avrasya Hostel

They were helpful and kind

I'm a solo lady traveller, that travelled around Turkey for a month. I stayed here for 5 nights because of the Hostel location only. It needs renovation, few things are broken and never got fixed. A dorm of 6 females & 2 bathrooms was good, but 1 bathroom was smelling & molding so bad, we didn't use it. Then, another female dorm shower broke down & flooded so the owner told the girls to use the shower in our room without warning us. The girls would come in the middle of the night even. It stopped after I went downstairs to complain. I was very annoyed when I asked the "owner" couple questions about Istanbul and all he wanted to do is sell me organized tours to make money. Us, backpackers, are staying away from that. He never answered my questions and another fellow traveller was standing beside me and told me about couple places that I shouldn't miss.... The other staff heard us chatting and very loud said:" Just shut up and let him sale his tour". Both shocked, we spoke another language and both left. How could u talked to your customers like this.... They were both trying to be very flattering with us girls. When they realized it didn't work, they weren't talking to us anymore !

Great location near Hagia Sophia and Blue Mosque, nice common room for making food and hanging out. Was perfect for me as a solo traveller

Nice people and clean

It’s good if you stay for couple of nights. Keep in mind that you are paying for the convenience of the location, the place is not fancy. The property pictures should be updated. However, their staff is friendly and I personally had good chats with Jimmy.

Very convenient location. The room is clean and quiet. Staff members are friendly and helpful. Recommend this hostel.

It was hot and crowded and I was miserable, so I left even though I paid for a week.. Still the staff was nice and I should have expected it to be what it was so my fault.

Good place to stay

Ideal for backpackers very uncomfortable beds

Good place for the money and location - great staff.

Good

I flew to Istanbul for a week and was looking for a cheap Hostel in a historical centre. I chose Avrasya Hostel because of its location and overall positive reviews and I wasn't disappointed. The staff was very helpful

reasonably nice and very clean room and bathroom. very good location - most attractions and a tram stop are around. in addition, very nice and helpful staff - they took me to the tram stop and helped me with the ticket machine. They also arranged for me transport to the airport at a price like UBER. I highly recommend and greet (guest from room 202)

We had 2 towels for a 4 persons room and one of them had red strains, but you can rent cheap towels if you need more. The place its near the centre and it's cheap

I stayed here for one night during my recent trip to Istanbul. The hotel owner is very friendly and helpful. He answered my questions promptly even before I arrived at the hotel. He helped arrange a cab to the airport for me early in the morning. I was able to store my luggage a little before check in time as well which was super helpful. The place was clean, and close to the major attractions. Would highly recommend this property for your stay 🙂

Sooo tight

Location is excellent for visiting all the "must see" sites. Nice terrace on the roof with kitchen facilities inside. Bring ear plugs - the beds are squeaky! Bathroom was functional. It definitely wasn't cleaned every day. All around, for the price and location, this hostel is recommended.

The property was very dirty. There is no hot water In the bathroom and shower. The young employee or staff who works night time on the desk, he over night talked with his customer on his desk and I did not slept because the desk person never stop to talk. Also one building is attached to Avrasya Hostel. The attached building is very Dangeriois building because the local city building department already put sign on the building. On sign wrote “ do not approach to this building because this building is very Dangeriois”

I love how close it was Hagia Sofia and Blue Mosque just 1-2 minute walk. Good simple breakfast with Turkish coffee. I have to thank a young man who carried my 20 kg luggage up 2 floors, i wanted to give a tip but i had no change. Thank you for your hospitality.

everything is clean and the place close to many places and team of hostel is amazing, thanks a lot
