Worst Experience and worst hotel in Istanbul

Th hotel was absolutely disgusting and very bad quality. I had 5 members of my family who were stranded overnight with no heating, no clean bedsheets, and a rude receptionist. The place does not reflect what is written on hotel.com reveiw and the picture are certainly not real either. Please be careful when you book this place.

It was not what we expected

The apartment is on the steep, small street in the middle of nowhere... It is on the street of shoe workshops and the whole street smells of glue.. the apartment itself is clean and the staff, who met us is very helpful. He even did not accept the tip, we offered, but the location is bad and it is on the third floor with the most steep and narrow stairs. We moved out after the first night due to the above reasons. Also, the cost was way high comparing to what they offered.

Our stay at Ekim Apartments

We had a great stay, everything clean and all the kitchen utensils available. there was a safe inside to keep our valuables, nice neighborhood quiet and felt very safe. Locked outside door to the building that only residents with a key could enter. Many things nearby to do and restaraunts. Everything we needed was there. I would recomend Ekim apartments to anyone.

Very nice room in walking distance to Sultanahmet

I stayed 2 nights in the Santa Apartment. The room itself was very nice and clean. It was in a very good area where you can find a great choice of cafes, restaurants and get to city center easily. I walked to Sultanahmet square, Hagia Sofia, Topkapi palace which took me around 10 to 15 minutes. The staff was really friendly although he is not in 24 hours in. But you can call or text him anytime and he is ready to rush for assistance. The only problem I had was that there was no microwave in the room although it had electric kettle, fridge and sink. Overall I liked my stay and would recommend it confidently.

We had booked an apartment for a family of 7. After reading reviews I realised the larger apartments were at the bottom of a steep hill. As the booking was nonrefundable they wouldn't cancel but offered 2 smaller apartments closer to the blue mosque. The ground floor apartment was fine only problem was smell in the bathroom and no view from the bedroom. Bed was uncomfortable. The semi basement apartment had mould in the bedroom,sitting room and kitchen. The whole flat smelt damp. The bed moved when you changed sides. We required an extra matress which was also filthy. Pros -good wifi, 3 min walk to blue mosque, many places to eat nearby. Daily cleaner. Clean towels daily. Cons -mould and smell of damp in semibase Hygiene of matress and duvets was poor/ average Apart from CNN and BBC news no English channels. My kids were ill during the holiday so I ended up spending a lot of time in the apartment. I would never recommend the semi basement. Glad to be back home !

Very good place to stay

Our stay at Ekim was very pleasent. There was a bit of misunderstanding about the number of bedroom in the begining and we were given a 1 bedroom apt inspite of email confirmation that it was a 2 bedroom place but they found us a bigger apt in a different building. Tried to charge us extra fee but honoured their original price due to the email confirmation they had sent us.Very clean, daily cleaning. Great neighbourhood and safe. Close to all major attractions.
