Reviews and Ratings
The hotel's location is near the airport, but the noise from flights can be very loud at times. While the room had some cheap details and the curtains couldn't make it dark, the staff member upgraded me to a single bed room from a dormitory upon my complaint about noise and smoke coming in, a gesture I appreciated.
The dormitory room was small but tidy; however, it was quite dirty overall, with dirt that seemed challenging to remove even with thorough cleaning. The location, close to the Ataturk Airport, is convenient but can be noisy due to airplane sounds. The dining experience was lacking, and the missing items were frustrating, especially when charged extra. Despite these drawbacks, the service was satisfactory, and the homemade pastry was a highlight.
The hotel was very cheap, but the rooms were very dirty in general with a pervasive smoke smell, making it hard to ignore the cleanliness issues. However, it served its purpose for a one-night stay before our early morning flight.
The hotel is very cheap, but it comes with some significant drawbacks. The rooms have white curtains that don't block light well, cheaply done details throughout, and poor WiFi connection. The noise level is high, and smoke can even seep into the room despite efforts to keep it out. However, for a one-night stay before an early flight, it served its purpose adequately, though the general dirtiness was hard to ignore.
The dormitory room was very clean and comfortable, but the single-bed room was not clean. The hotel offers friendly service, but there is an additional charge for airport shuttle. The location is nice, although there can be loud flight sounds from the nearby airport. The dining experience was nice, but there were some missing items. The facilities are in shortage.
The hotel is conveniently close to the airport but suffers from loud flight noises at times. The rooms are quite dirty with persistent smoke smells, requiring deep cleaning.

The hotel had some drawbacks such as white curtains that let light in, noise issues, and poor room details, but the staff was friendly. However, the smoking at the reception was off-putting. The cleanliness was not up to standard, even after reporting an issue in the room.
The hotel was a disappointing experience overall. The rooms were very dirty, noisy, and had cheaply done details. The wifi was unreliable, and smoke seeped into the room despite efforts to keep it out. On the positive side, it was a budget-friendly option, but the presence of smoking receptionists was off-putting.
The hotel seems to be a convenient choice for a short stay before catching an early flight, with a bed that sufficed for the night. However, the cleanliness leaves much to be desired as the rooms were very dirty.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. While the staff were accommodating and moved me to a single bed room from a dirty dormitory upon my complaint, the cleanliness issues in the rooms were a letdown. Despite efforts, the dirt seemed ingrained and hard to rid with just one cleaning session. The location was convenient for those arriving at Atatürk Airport, but the noise from flights could be bothersome. The dining had its bright spots with a nice organic section but suffered from missing items during breakfast.
The hotel had some cleanliness issues and noisy rooms due to thin curtains, but overall, my stay was acceptable with decent space and cleanliness. However, the WiFi was unreliable, and smoke seeped into the room. Pricing was reasonable.
The hotel has some drawbacks like small rooms with white curtains that don't keep out light well, noise issues, and poor details in the room. The WiFi is unreliable, and smoke may enter even with the door closed. The overall cleanliness is lacking with persistent dirt even after one cleaning attempt.

The details in the room felt cheap, and the Wi-Fi was unreliable, with smoke seeping in despite efforts to keep it out. However, the location was nice being close to the supermarket even though the airport noise was loud at times.
