helpful staff breakfast buffet central location street noise bathroom odor no elevator
The hotel staff offered excellent assistance with directions. The breakfast buffet featured a variety of Turkish cheeses and olives. The location is close to major historical sites. Hagia Sophia is only a short walk away. The air conditioning in my room worked very well.
The street noise was quite loud, even late at night. The bathroom had a slight odor, and it was persistent. My room lacked an elevator, and carrying luggage upstairs was difficult.

the staff were so kind i must say! i asked for an early check-in because of my early flight and they granted it for me. the breakfast buffet was really typical for the region with many options i could pick from. the rooms were very clean too i appreciated that a lot.
there was a little too much noise from the street it made it hard to rest well during the night but it was still manageable.

Central Location, Decent Hotel

central location fine view comfortable space
The hotel enjoys an unbeatable location near main attractions. I found Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia a short walk. The terrace offers great views. Rooms were clean.
I did notice a sewage smell in the bathroom. This made the room uncomfortable sometimes. The windy staircase wasnt easy to traverse.
