We enjoyed our stay in Big Apple hostel. We stayed in a cozy, bright, double ensuite room. Offered good quality. Private bathroom, shower with hot water, tv - all or even more that you can expect from hostel. Moreover, the room was cleaned every day. It was not particulary big, but quite enough for a week holidays. I would recommend to make sure after booking that your room has windows (there's one without, though with air-conditioning). Special "thank you" to Sharan and all the staff, for all their effort to make the atmosphere nice and friendly there. They even took us on a "Istambul by night" clubbing trip on our last night in Turkey - that was enjoyable - thanks guys!:) - Conrad & Cristina

Location is nice, in a central area of turistc spots. nternet s free!Reasonable for budget travellers but could be much cleaner, better food (breakfast), and better prvate rooms. The Prvate rooms bathrooms are very small, don't have a proper shower, but the bed s good. The Dorms are large and seems to be comfortable.
