Kuyu Beergarden Hostel

Fine environment with terrible experience, after extended one night with the owner himself with confirmation of availability, got informed ten minutes before check out time that there's actually no room, and still being asked to check out in time. Ask the owner if the trekking bag can still store in hostel till night, he said yes without further infos. Later night while retrieving the trekking bag from backpack room, spent lees than 15 minutes to setbup the bag, got urged and yelled to get out of the hostel from the owner himself(with reason saying he said that the bad should be store downstairs, which he never mentioned). Try to talk reasons and said I'll leave asap, got replied that he doesn't care. Terrible experience.

This hostel has many issues. You always have to remind the workers to do this or that, otherwise either the wifi doesn't work, or you have no equipment in the kitchen, or there's simply mold everywhere in the bathrooms. The beds are also awful, by the way. Shaky and dangerous to climb on. The only good thing here is location. Nothing else. Also the workers don't seem to be so customer oriented. They chill on sofas, smoke inside, drink, don't bother themselves to check their system on time. Constant wifi problems. Even when you tell them, they fix it slowly and not for a long time. Next day again same story. So the only place I could work from was the reception area. I needed quietness and good connection just for 30 mins and politely asked the receptionists to talk softer. They refused. So I couldn't work and told them "why do I have problems with every single detail here?" (toilet, beds, kitchen, etc), they said "why are you here then?". (The only reason I stayed there was because I was fully busy and didn't have time to move, even though I wanted to go away the first day. But again, the receptionist, asked me this! Meaning he doesn't want to improve anything in their hostel, but instead argues with the customer lol). So then the 30yo receptionist told me to leave. He told me to leave straight away!! Right in the middle of my work. He said he didn't like me ruining their mood. Imagine, lol. What a "smart" service. I couldn't leave then as I had to work (not that he cared), but later I did and this is the best thing that happened to me in this hostel. So if you're in Antalya, don't let these "very smart" people spoil your impression of the city. There's plenty of other hostels nearby for around the same price, but way better quality and vibes. Some of them are: Flaneur hostel, Vague hostel, Be Bold hostel. Highly recommended.
