Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Airport transfer requires arranging — An airport shuttle is available, but it's not automatic – you'll need to plan ahead for your transfer from Sabiha Gokcen, which is 35 km away.
  • Check-in window ends at midnight — Check-in is only from 14:00 to 23:59, so if you're arriving late, you'll need to coordinate with the hostel.
  • No pets allowed — The property is strictly non-smoking and doesn't accept pets, which may be a drawback for some travellers.
  • Not in the main tourist centre — Located in Moda, away from the historic core – it's about 10 minutes' drive to the Basilica Cistern, so you'll rely on transport for major sights.

The bottom line

Moda Drei is a solid choice for travellers who want a sociable, well-run hostel in a lively local area. It's not the place for a quiet, central base near the old town, but if you're happy to use public transport, the friendly staff, clean dorms, and community terrace make it easy to recommend.

8A friendly hostel with great local vibes, ideal for explorers.
