My experience in the hostel was very nice. Although it was low tourist season and everything was very quiet I had a nice time in the zone and Baris always helped me with any problem.

Sorry for the late feedback. I spent 2 nice weeks in August here. It was very nice to spending time with customers and hotel stuff. It was very light work, only 3-4 hours in a day. Only negative things is accommodation maybe could be better but it wasnt that bad.
