I loved the location. It was a short walk to the galata tower! the room was very clean and spacious, something i always appreciate. the staff was also very helpful and friendly. They were always ready to assist with any questions i had. the morning tea provided was a good extra perk!
the walk back to the hotel is uphill, so it can be a bit challenging after a long day of exploring.
