Advertised roof terrace was closed for construction. In spite of choosing to stay on first floor to limit hearing rooftop construction this was still quite loud during the day. Requested non-smoking room but there was a smell of stale cigarettes that made me feel sick. Services shaft was the view out of the rear 'window' to the room. which is not fire safe! Grille had falled off bathroom ventilation riser...which is hardly suprising given it was stuck on with double sided sticky tape! Wire for lighting sticking out of wall with no light on. Missing / non-functioning bulbs in several of the lights in the room. Felt so uncomfortable we ended up going elsewhere and were glad we did, in spite of the expense, as I ended up dreading returning to the hotel.

More or less, but in a nice location.

Just plain old normal. The hotel is between good quality and dilapidated. The location is great, the staff is nice, the hotel has seen better days. It is a bit expensive but I get the feeling that, in Istanbul at the moment, if you do not pay a decent amount, you will get very low quality.

The WORST hotel experience, the room was terrible! We booked a room for four nights in July 2022, but my wife and I could stay there only for one night! We trusted the pictures and reviews, but the room was really small, with no space for two luggage! The room was not well serviced; it had very, very dirty carpets, small pieces of toilet paper on the carpets, the bathroom trash can was broken, the shower water faucet hook was broken, and the shower drain was clogged! No breakfast and dining service! We found another hotel in the same neighborhood with much better value and service!

The price did not match the quality. Pros: safe area staff are helpful. Cons :the building is very old, The rooms are tiny tiny spaces you barely can sleep and 3 steps to the door and thats it, they have bigger rooms but they the ones in pictures. Cleanliness: the carpet is very dirty sheets were alright Bathroom was not big literally i cant spread my arms or i will touch both walls. As I discovered the area filled with better quality hotel same rating and much cheaper but for some reason they dont show on expedia, try booking dottcom. The staff were nice and helpful I guess the place can be better If they spend more money on the building like more lights in the Stairwell and fix the broken stairs ( be careful when using th3m) It was good for short stay two days.

The hotel is situated very close to many of the landmarks in the area, while still being a relatively quiet place. The hotel is also very reachable using almost all forms of transport. The only disadvantages were that some of the finishings in the hotel were less than expected (minor leaks from pipes, loose nails and screws), and that the hotel is almost impossible to access for those on a wheelchair.
