Lola Backpackers Hostel

Was staying in a girls room for 3 nights, the bed was comfort, bedsheets clean, duvet surprisingly nice and thick (visited in winter months). The location in regards to city centre and tourist sights is good, but in the night the area is super dark and looks sketchy, with hostel entrance being at the back of a small alley. Apologies to the owner, but the cleanliness was not even minimal, with men and women sharing the same toilets, many hairs tangled on the floor of the shower and the toilet seat being covered in piss. Cheap prices with good location, but minimal comfort

This place has great energy that hosts receive and contribute to it ☀️The common room is very cozy and the staff and hosts make the environment comfortable and ready for socializing or just resting alone. The beds are comfy, the bathrooms are clean. For sure one of the best hostels in Istanbul :)

This place may not be the most modern place in town but it sure does feel like home. Jalita and Faruk are always hospitable and makes sure the guests are taken care of. Its vibrant paintings and little details all over the hostel makes it that much more exciting to explore. This hostel also has one of the friendliest atmosphere, at times, it even felt like there’s too many people to meet. Overall, I loved this place and would definitely come back!

Çok güzel bi yer her yere çok yakın güzel işletme

Harika bir yer ve güzel dostluklar..Konumu süper.

Great stay at Lola’s, highly recommend. The staff were excellent and extremely helpful, they helped organise the return of a lost passport left in a taxi. They have created a very good vibe within the hostel and staying here feels safe and like a home. Rooms, bathrooms and common areas are more than sufficient and kept well. Would definitely stay here again.

Great hostel with a good vibe. People are friendly. What it lacks in quality of the rooms and facilities, it makes up for with a good atmosphere.It can be a bit noisy, but if you don't bring ear plugs to a hostel, i'm not sure you're travelling properly.

Two Turkish guys working in the night shift yelled at me and threatened me. One is very short, black hair. His boyfriend is taller. They were scared to tell me their names, gave fake names instead ( farty and fartuk). The administration didn't answer my messages. Prefer to sweep under the carpetAvoid this sketchy place.
