Beautiful chamber hotel ❤❤❤. For those who value silence, privacy, beauty and comfort. All reviews are pure truth. If you rest in the summer, take more days. We didn't have one 😄. We rested in early August. The sea was fresh, the air was three degrees lower than in Istanbul. The kitchen is simple but delicious. Thanks to the hotel for the hospitality 🙏❤❤❤.Information for Russians. On the island you can pay for public transport by the Istanbul card(make it better in the city) or by the foreign card. Cash liras do not take.

A small beautiful hotel with a magnificent view on the Black Sea. Our room was very good. not small. Bathroom always with hot water in October. The room is spacious. Very stylish light and furniture and a French balcony with a view on the Black Sea. Stopped there before leaving home, quickly arrived at the airport. On the other hand, a beautiful restaurant with seafood. If on the car, there are three network shops working up to 21.00. Some restaurants on the embankment working up to 22.00. Very beautiful cosa with lighting in the sea and slightly above a beautiful viewing area with a beacon. I advise everyone this place. How will we be near by necessarily stop!

This was my first stop in Istanbul, and it was an excellent choice. I had a very comfortable and secure stay. The hostel's location is fantastic; after exploring Beyoğlu all day, it was so easy to find my way back, and returning felt just like coming home every evening. The mixed quad room was great; I shared it with a very polite Australian guy, and we had some friendly chats. He even gave me some recommendations for places to visit. The common area downstairs also had a nice vibe. One evening, the guy at the front desk saw me writing, and he kindly brought over some Turkish tea and delicious snacks his mom made. Overall, it was a superb hostel experience, and I'm sure I'll stay here again on my next visit.

I loved that there were so many attractions nearby. The staff were also very friendly, which is why I stayed here twice during my two visits to Istanbul on my Turkey trip. I think for this price, it's probably the cheapest hostel in all of Istanbul. It really helped me save a lot of money. I later found out that Pannibottle also stayed at this hostel, which was pretty cool! This was the best accommodation I had during my entire trip to Turkey!

At this price and in this location, what else do you need a bicycle for! Less than 200 yuan, standard room, except for the kettle, toothbrush, cup, bottled water, even breakfast is provided, the key is that there is a small terrace facing the sea, and the bathroom has floor heating, it's worth it! It's much better than the domestic light travel! Finally, I would like to remind you that the check-in front desk is not the same as the one in the picture, which is a bit suspicious of selling dog meat under the guise of sheep.

Понравилось наверно только сама кровать, хороший матрас, постельное белье и одеяло. НО! находится просто на очень оживленной улице, кровать верхняя около окна еще и без штор, ну т.е прозрачная есть тюль, но свет от фонарей очень светло. У окон может их нужно отрегулировать или уплотнитель заменить, в общем звукоизоляции никакой. Но хоть с соседями мне повезло, тихие спокойные. А также хорошо бы добавить в описание что здесь нет никого из персноала вам просто присылают в сообщениях код от двери и комнаты. И это еще один большой минус потому что входная дверь и дверь в комнату у меня не запиралась, ты просто открываешь дверь никаких кодов не нужно, т.е. ваши вещи в шкафчике с защелкой в комнате которая не закрывается. Туалет и душ на втором этаже, а жил я на четвертом, постоянно бегать туда сюда не удобно

I came to Istanbul for a business trip and preferred to stay at Gökçe Hostel. The price performance is very good, it is a reasonable price, it is a reliable place. The hotel staff is good, they solve a problem immediately, I got a positive energy during my stay as a customer. The rooms are clean, the sink and shower places are very nice and modernly designed. Hotels like this are usually expensive. But Gökçe Hostel is cute, warm-blooded, customer-oriented, they work with friendly staff, reasonable price, clean, reliable, fast internet in the room, hot water 24/7, instant connection to a customer representative. In short, we can say that the service provided here is above the price paid.
