We chose this hotel for its excellent location and value, and it exceeded our expectations! The check-in process was quick and seamless. The staff was incredibly welcoming, even walking us to our room, which was spacious, spotless, and delightfully cozy. What makes this place valuable is its unbeatable proximity to iconic landmarks like the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia, as well as a variety of fantastic restaurants—all just a short walk away. We wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again!

The apartment was spacious, clean and located next to many shops and restaurants. It was a short walk to the major historic sites. There is easy access to taxis that line up a short distance from the apartment. This was really convenient when we took trips to the Asian side. We really enjoyed our stay in the apartment and in Turkey.

We went into this property and were shocked that there is no elevator in the building our room is in. (They have a few buildings) So our luggage has to be carried on many flights of stairs. This was very hard. My dad has a knee problem so having to go up the stairs for a few days and go down was very challenging. There was one gentleman I think he was the manager he was very polite and helpful. Two other front desk agents I had a bad experience with. One of their name was Jacob, the others name I don’t remember. The hotels location is outstanding though. The room was pretty spacious. The toilet was very uncomfortable though

The property itself wasn’t a problem. Staff were good too. The boss was extremely helpful. Expedia is at fault as they didn’t put the correct information in the website. The Annex apartment was on a separate building which had 3 flights of circular stairs. My 74 year old mother was supposed to stay in the annex with me. Which she couldn’t as there was no way she could’ve climbed the steps. We were on the 3rd floor. When I spoke to the staff they said they couldn’t do anything. As it happened my sister booked a room which was in the main building which had a lift so my mother stayed with her. If my sis hadn’t booked a room in the main building, this holiday would have been a disaster. I would like Expedia to call me to discuss this further as I am very unhappy with the information that was provided.
