Loved the warmth and cleanliness. It’s just a 4 instead of 5 because the walls are thin so you can hear your neighbours. But the staff really made up to any shortcomings, they were amazing. I loved how it is near to everything especially Hagia Sophia and the sultanahmet area. And the heater is really warm during winter it helps.
