The hotel waa nice, staff very friendly
The room was ok but the mattress was not fit for a hotel, the coils had given up in one side of the mattress and the body was getting into a hole , therefore very unconfortable.
I booked this room to be in Sultanahmet because I only had a one day layover in Istanbul. I wasn't expecting much for the price but was pleasantly surprised. Yes, the room was small, but it was clean and looked newly redone. The bed was decently comfy, the bathroom was great with strong hot water and there is even a view of the Hagia Sophia and Blue Mosque from the roof at breakfast. The guys working there were very nice and had a cheap shuttle to the airport. Overall, a great little place in the middle of everything if you're ok with a smallish space.
The staffs at the hotel are very friendly and helpful.
Pleased with the location which is near to many great historical sights.
The breakfast is good to get one going for the day.
The only DOWNSIDE is that the room is very very small. There is literally no place to open our luggage. We have to sort our luggage on the bed or on the floor.
There is water dispenser and coffee/tea making facility at the front reception which is very handy.
Overall, I am happy with my stay for the price I am paying per nite.
The staff were very friendly and helpful. They give discounts on activities you book and helpful with directions as well. The location is awesome, 5-min walk from blue mosque, sophia Hagia, Topkapi palace and grand bazaar. Also close to the tram.
It was a very nice hotel, but it was quite small. Everyone was very nice though and we're always willing to answer questions. Our room had a little draft but it wasn't anyrhing we couldn't handle. Nice room for a nice price. We couldn't beat it!
