Very nice Location and Really good Service!

central locationhelpful staffconvenient access

I found the location excellent. I was less than 10 minutes from attractions such as Sultanahmet and Hagia Sophia. Access to trams and trains connecting to the city center was so convenient. The staff were helpful, guiding me with passion. The room had a fridge, which I used for my food and drinks.

The locking mechanism for the front door seemed to stick when I tried to open it.
