Ali's Guest House Reviews

Ali's Guest House is the cheapest hostel option in Goreme. The hostel is single-handedly run and managed by the owner himself, hence everything in the hostel is personally overseen and done by the owner, and the service provided by him is superb. Free Wi-Fi and breakfast are also provided.

The owner speaks decent English and is always willing to provide tourist information. He also runs a travel booking desk where guests can book tours at competitive prices, though it will be cheaper to book directly with the tour operator.

The Location

The hostel is strategically located five minutes' walk away from the bus station, grocery stores (BIM), and the main street of Goreme. Guests who would like to catch the sunrise or sunset view can also take a short, fifteen-minute hike up a nearby small hill for the view.

The main street of Goreme can be noisy at night due to the active nightlife, but guests need not worry as the hostel is located off the main street with no neighboring business establishments, so it is really quiet at night.

Rooms and Bathrooms

Rooms are located inside a cave, so guests will be glad to enjoy the "cave hotel" experience while paying low hostel prices. However, as it's a cave, the hostel room can be a little bit dusty. The rooms are heated by a single central heater, but it is sufficiently warm during winters.

Free lockers with locks are also provided in the room. However, the Wi-Fi in the room is weak and unusable due to the cave walls blocking reception. Hence, guests wanting to use Wi-Fi have to do so in the lounge where connection is more stable.

Bathrooms are heated, with hot showers available. Towels are also provided for free. There are only three cubicles for more than fifteen beds in total, so it can get crowded during shower times and guests may have to queue up for a long time.

Common Spaces

The reception area is furnished with sofas and dining tables where guests can help themselves to free tea and coffee. Free breakfast is also provided in the morning, and will be served at this place. Considering the price of this hostel, the breakfast served is great value for money. Guests are also free to use the small kitchen, which is equipped with all the crockery and utensils needed for basic cooking.

Summary

Ali's Guest House has great service; location; facilities; and even breakfast, making it the best value for money hostel you can find in Goreme. The only downside of the hostel is the poor Wi-Fi in the rooms, but guests can easily go to the lounge to use the Wi-Fi instead. Therefore, pros more than outweighs the cons of staying in this hostel.
