Bodrum Backpackers Reviews

Bodrum Backpackers is a hostel in a bar. The main business is an Irish pub, so employees meet and greet guest there, but they motivate more for work with bar visitors. The staff speaks good-enough English. Nobody asks for documents. The hostel is closed from midnight to 8 a.m.

The Location

The building is located on one of the main roads; from the main bus station, it can be reached in fifteen minutes. There are no signs for the hostel, so you have to focus on the sign of the Irish bar. The place has a convenient location, five minutes' walk to tourist streets with cafes, restaurants and souvenir shops, and the sea. Markets with food can be found on the same street. It's possible to park the car on the same street.

Rooms and Bathrooms

There are private and shared rooms, all rooms apart from the single have en suite bathrooms. The interior of rooms is very simple, there are just beds. For the cooling room, you can use the fan and it is very comfortable because the windows do not have any net for saving you from mosquitos or thieves. The beds are soft and clean; instead of a blanket, there's only a bed sheet. There are no private lockers in the rooms.

The bathroom combines a toilet and a shower. The size is enough for changing clothes, and there are also a few hooks for hanging things. The shower is simply a recess in the floor. The shower head is broken and there is no soap. The hot water works well, but the bathroom is not cleaned at all.

Common Spaces

The rooms are connected by a corridor overlooking the street. The second floor also has a very nice terrace with sofas, chairs, tables, and a hammock. There is a bar for the summer period. The view includes only the road, a bit of the sea, and the roofs of the houses. Wi-Fi is broken on the second floor, but working well on the first floor and in the bar. There is a cat. Breakfast is not included. You can buy food from the bar. In mid-April during our stay, the hostel was empty.

Summary

This hostel can be a good option for lonely travelers and groups, especially those who like social life and drinks.
