Great location in the old city, really welcoming at reception, bed was super comfy, shower was great, breakfast was delicious, basically it was a great place to stay for pretty good value. Highly recommend!

This was my first stay in a hostel. It was a very good experience. I had a very interesting conversation about Turkish history with the owner of the hostel. Everyone was very hospitable. I met a lot of travelers from all over Europe.

I really enjoyed staying at Agora! Their staff was helpful, their beds were clean, and their breakfast was delicious. On top of all that, they have two floors of gorgeous patio area that makes for a great view during breakfast. 100% recommend!

They were friendly, helpful, and always there to answer any questions I had. My room was comfortable and clean. The bathroom was also spacious and kept... More

Really helpful staff, they know what they're doing and are super helpful. Very clean. Nothing super special about this place, especially when comparing to other hostels abroad. Great location. Cons: Noisy! My first night I stayed in a dorm in the basement, which faces the street. My second night I switched to the ground floor dorm, but that is next... More
