My room had a stocked fridge, a safe, and a blanket. The drinking water was replenished each day. It was so thoughtful! The location offered easy access to the Grand Bazaar and the Blue Mosque. I found the reception area spacious and the lift convenient.
The room was a bit small and lacked a view. The pool felt quite tiny. The spa had an unpleasant odor. It made it difficult to relax.

Excellent Location and Friendly Service
convenient location free water helpful staff
The hotel's location was fantastic for seeing local attractions, all within a short walk. Tram and metro stations were conveniently close (less than 5 minutes away). I appreciated the complimentary water provided with dinner and in the room.
The swimming pool felt a bit small, more like a fish tank. It was located in a basement with dim lighting, seem not so inviting.
