    No elevators if you have a heavy suitcase, the bathroom is too small, not many outlets to charge your devices.

    The personnel very friendly and helpful, the breakfast was very good, close to public transportation and stores.

    Although it was an ECO room, it was really small. My husband had to force himself inside of a gap between the wall and the bed to get into the bed.

    Very friendly staff, they cleaned the room every day.

    There is a small rat in room 304, it was on the table when I came back in the night, then under the bed to the toilet then back to under the bed. Then there was no tissue paper in the toilet, I got a small roll that was almost over. There was no drinking water

    Tiny shower/toilet but cosy

    The hotel is old, even though it looks renovated from outside. The room was so small you could bearly move. The room's internet connection is weak. Breakfast is expensive for what they serve.

    Staff is so helpful and very kind. The location is good, near to restaurants and markets.

    Bathroom was small ! And breakfast wasn’t adequate

    Breakfast wasn’t really what I would eat it was a platter of salami , cheese albeit small portions bread , jam , a boiled egg tomatoes ect plus coffee but there was an excellent kiosk just yards away that served really nice crusty bread hot filling sandwiches , although the hotel was quite far from the city centre there was a bus station directly opposite the hotel and the metro was a small walk

    The bathroom. we could see the foams inside the tiles of the walls which wasn’t a problem but it would look better and more professional once it is fixed.

    Hi the room service sometimes it wasn’t on time

    What I like about the hotel is that is very close tourist areas. Also you can walk at night time without danger and the personal service is very nice. Burak that works on the reception is very nice person.

    Worst choice of hotel from the street you enter the hotel from inside

    Very steep stairs and no elevator. But the staff is always ready to help with luggage lifting

    I only spent 1 night. The location is very convenient - close to both the metro and high-speed tram to the very center of Istanbul. I am especially grateful to the staff for their help with lifting a broken suitcase to the 3rd floor. Thanks to Yilmaz Irmak for the morning tea.I had an early departure from the bus station, so I chose this hotel. If you look at the map, you can get lost. In fact, the hotel is located on the square where the buses end, just 300 meters from the metro. If you see a bus stop, it means you have arrived. A bonus is the walls of ancient Constantinople, which can be seen from the windows. The hotel checks whether bank cards match the guest's last name. But in my request I explained that Russian bank cards do not work in Turkey, so for the reservation I use the card of a relative living in Europe and all issues were promptly resolved.

    They scammed me so many times. They charged me a whole night for staying 2 hours over the check out time, refusing to let me pay a smaller fee. They are greedy and scam tourists and let’s suppose you give them money in euros, they give you change in the local currency to trip you out. Disgusting hotel. There were flies. Lack of facilities. The rooms were tiny, the toilet so close to the bed, absolutely unhygienic.
