I have been living in this hostel for a little over 6 months. The staff (not admins) is normal, friendly. There is not much space in rooms for 4 people, but if you study somewhere nearby, for example in yildiz, then it is normal. There are two metro lines m3 and m1 nearby, which is very cool, buses and trams run, but I do not advise using them, there is a risk of getting into traffic. Food, I immediately advise you to additionally buy something meat, because in Turkey there is trouble with meat, relative to Russian sausage and meat. Neighbors, most of them will be from Africa and the Middle East... Islam is also very "widespread" in the dorm and throughout Turkey. Look for the disadvantages yourself.
