    Friendly and helpful staff. Very good location. Very close to parks, shopping street, tourist attractions, tram, marmaray rail. Still on a quiet inner street. The room was modern and clean maybe just slightly worn down here and there

    Really great small hotel with delicious breakfast in the heart of the city. Quiet, clean, a few steps from the main attractions. We had a great time! Thank you

    The location is fantastic—just a 2-minute walk from the tram and within easy walking distance of the main attractions. But what truly made this stay special was the host. They were incredibly friendly, always available, and went above and beyond...
