I Wouldn't Not Sleep Here Again

The property is in a mix-use zone in the electrical industrial district behind Galata. Although the location is okay it lends itself to disappointment, there are derelict warehouses adjacent the hotel that were used for all-night raves so the noise & sound of BASS thumping all night. The following night there was no water in the hotel with no communication from staff even though they knew about this prior to the water supply being cut.

Solo trip

Very nice hotel, wonderful people on reception. I didn’t mind walking to Karakoy and beyond, but some people could be put off by the location. It was fine, but after the shutters come down on neighbouring electrical stores then the street does not look welcoming. I would stay again however, I enjoyed the warm welcome
