Convenient location in the Sultanhamet

It classifies itself as a "special category" but we felt that it fell to just above a 3 star. It is conveniently placed for all the usual sights and the rooftop restaurant had a spectacular views over the Blue Mosque and the Hagia Sophia. The staff were extremely helpful - ranging from the reception staff to the cleaning ladies. The brekfast sets you up for the day.

The building is run-down, and the pictures are not representative of the actual property. Our room, despite being one of the suites, was near the elevator, which makes a jet engine noise day and night. The balcony had broken furniture, dying plants, and was covered in bird droppings. To access the "spa" area, you have to cross a dark laundry area, which is rather disconcerting. Considering the price of the room, this was a tremendous disappointment. The only positive point was the very friendly and helpful staff.
