    We loved our stay at Friendly Hostel! The location was perfect, right in the heart of the city. The receptionist was incredibly helpful and the hostel was spotlessly clean. We especially enjoyed the terrace, where we could relax and take in the view of the city. The bed was comfortable and we had a great night's sleep.

    I stayed at Friendly Hostel for a week during my sightseeing trip. The location was perfect, close to all the attractions and the main train station. The receptionist was incredibly kind and multilingual, speaking Turkish as well. The cleanliness of the hostel was outstanding, with daily cleaning of all rooms and common areas. There were two bathrooms, one of which was spacious and well-maintained. The kitchen was equipped with everything I needed, including a coffee machine and microwave oven.

    I do recommend this hotel.

    I stayed at Friendly Hostel for four nights during an off-peak season. The triple room was a welcome change with a bed to myself and well-equipped facilities. Each room had lockers with attached keys, eliminating the need for a padlock. The spotless bathroom even had shower gel available. The hostel's central location in the old town allowed for easy exploration on foot. The manager, Marianna, was lovely and made my stay pleasant. this was the most luxurious hostel experience I've had in Europe.

    Would recommend this hostel.

    I got great value for my money at Friendly Hostel. The rooms were comfortable and clean, and the location was amazing, right in the heart of Old Town. The staff was also helpful and friendly throughout my stay.

    The breakfast experience could have been better with more variety and options available.

    Great location, right in the heart of the city. Close to supermarkets, restaurants, and the Old Town. The train station is just a few minutes away, making it convenient for exploring the city. The view from the rooftop terrace was also a nice bonus.

    Communication was a challenge as there seemed to be a lack of English-speaking staff. This made it difficult to get information or assistance when needed.
