Wonderful stay in convenient location

airport transportshort walkrestaurant recommendationprofessional staff
The staff helped with transportation from the airport, it worked very well. The location is fantastic. Galata Tower is only a short walk. The reception staff was professional and available all the time. They provided restaurant recommendations and tips for exploring the city.
The light switches were slightly confusing, as some lights would not work if certain switches were on. This caused some difficulty at night with the bathroom light.

i was a bit disappointed that the hotel photos showed a restaurant next door as if it was part of the hotel itself. this made me think breakfast would be available on site, but it was not. also, the towels in my room felt quite old, and the bed made a lot of noise whenever i moved. the shower panel in the bathroom also had cracks.
