The hotel staff were lovely and accommodating. Maya the housekeeper was fantastic in attending to our needs. This was our second time staying at the hotel. It was clean, nearby all the tourists attractions and plenty of eating choices surrounding it. There was access to connivence stores which stayed open till midnight. I would definitely recommend this hotel.

Staff were friendly and helpful. The room sizes are always small in these types of hotels which is expected however the hotel room was cleaned daily and fresh towels provided. All the basic amenities were provided and bonus was the A/C worked. Hotel was located nearby to many of the tourists attractions. There was plenty local dining places nearby which stayed opened till midnight which was handy if you didn’t want to go very far out. I would definitely stay again if I’m visiting the area.

Nepoštena radnja
Mi smo rezervisali trokrevetnu sobu.Kad smo došli u hotel,čovek sa recepcije odveo nas je u podrum gde se nalazi neka trokrevetna soba.Soba je mračna,bez prozora i oseća se neki neprijatan miris.Kada sam mu rekao da mi da drugu sobu,on mi je rekao da nema više trokrevetnih soba i ponudio mi da doplatim 20 Eur za porodičnu sobu,našta sam ja morao pristati.Hotel je bio prazan i mislim da mi je namerno to ponudio kako bi mi još nešto naplatio.

Good hotel and location!
Hotel is very quite and in a good location, within walking distance to most sights and transportation. Breakfast was decent but repetitive if staying multiple days. Good sized washroom. Helpful staff. Cons: We specifically booked a seaview room but did not get one.There was no signal on the tv for the duration of our stay despite reporting it to the hotel.

Basic
We were only staying one night, but weren’t left impressed. In terms of positives, whilst basic, the room was clean and actually quite large. The hotel was also in a good location for the main tourist attractions. Negatives started from when we arrived, as the receptionist wasn’t very friendly and didn’t make any effort to engage with us. Our room was on the same floor as the reception and we could hear everything from walking on stairs to the phone ringing, which didn’t make for a good nights sleep. A transfer from the airport was arranged for us and cost 55 euros. We were disappointed to find that the hotel had obviously charged a significant mark up, as we found from our transfer back to the hotel and others we spoke to that it should have been closer to 40. Better value can be had in other areas of Istanbul and utilising the excellent tram network rather than paying a premium to stay in a hotel that is in a good location, but isn’t as good quality.

I use a cane and struggle with steps. Luckily we were only on the first floor. Breakfast was across the street - their other building - and down a flight of stairs. Our room had a bathroom 1 metre wide and a teeny tiny sink. But. The location was superb. My sister’s room was ground floor in the other building and their bathroom was square and much roomier. I’d come back and ask for that room.

Not much to look at from outside, but never judge a book by it's cover. The rooms inside are clean and have everything you would need. Breakfast is BRILLIANT, lots of variety, highly recommend it. Decor inside the rooms are lovely. Staff are friendly. Close to everything.

Upon check-in we were given option either a big room with mold on the ceiling or second room smaller with mold in the bathroom ceiling. Both rooms smells of mold and cigarette eventough we requetsed for non-smoking. Rooms were completely different as picture on the website. The next day we asked for a better (breathable) room. We had to pay additional; the new room located on the opposite building. There are two building for this hotel. Pictures on the website are refurbished rooms. The conclusion is guest will get smelly molding room upon check-in and will need to pay additional for better room.

It was a great stay. The Hotel is very advisable if you want to stay in a calm, clean, close to central part place. Some tear and wear is not spoiling the overall positive impression. Another visit into Istanbul we will consider this Hotel again.

Nice and comfortable hotel close to the old town
We had a very nice stay. The room was comfortable and clean, the staff was very helpful. We really liked the location: by the sea and a short walking distance to all main attractions (Blue Mosque, Ayasofya, etc). There are plenty of things to do and places to eat in.

This small inn is off the main street but still so close to all the iconic sites in Sultanahmet. Very comfortable beds, super clean and best shower ever. Staff is very friendly amd helpful. Lovely terrace breakfast area with good choice of breakfast foods. We had a side view of the sea with nice sea breeze if you don't want to use the a/c.Will stay again on our next visit.

Ubicación perfecta, esta a 5min como mucho de La Mezquita Azul. La habitación es pequeña, pero suficiente para una o dos noches. Muy limpia, y el baño también. Nos atendieron genial y nos gestionaron el transfer para el aeropuerto. Sin duda, un buen hotel para un par de dias en Estambul, es de las 3 b, bueno, bonito y barato
