A bit boring, but stayable place. Honestly, there really is no other choice if you want to go to Canakkale. Avoid the staff trying to sell you packages from their travel agency, as you can do it on your own for much cheaper and better.

No common room or kitchen but location was great. Roof top area which was great to drink some beers.

This place was a little grubby to be honest, and lacked character. Having said that though the tours of Galipolli and Troy were excellent.

Great hostel for staying at to then do the Gallipoli tour trip. You can get a transfer after the tour straight to Istanbul. The best way to do the tour.

Not a fantastic atmosphere and I was also charged a slightly higher rate for booking through hostel world. They also rounded the total up when I paid. Yellow Rose Pension seemed much nicer.

Kind of a bland hostel. Not that fun because not too many people are there, no real bar downstairs, etc. It had some character, but it was hard not to notice that it was run by a travel agency, which made you always question their suggestions on tours, buses, etc.

It's situated by the harbour which is a great location for everything that you need. The staff spoke really good english and everything seemed really clean although it all seemed a little sterile in it's approach.

There were no windows in my room, walls very thin so could hear noise at night. Showers seemed to be falling apart and not very accessible. Although very cheap,no option of breakfast or tea/coffee or communal area to relax. Was a good location but didn't find the place to be that friendly.

As long as you don't get stuck with one of the very chlaustrophobic windowless rooms with no ventilation, or have the screams and giggles of a noisy tour group permeate through the paper-thin walls then you'll be fine.

But obviously very different to a hostel in terms of atmosphere. The guys at ANZAC House did a great job - they organised our Gallipoli Tour, gave us tips on where to go in Turkey, helped us out with bus tickets, and they took us out for a drink! Unexpected and very cool! Thanks.close
