The hotel, to be clear, is wonderfully located if you want to visit the attractions of Sultanahmet or walk over to the Spice Bazaar. The tram line is a few blocks away, so that adds to the convenience. Now, to the hotel. First, few off members speak any English. One expects that in international travel. Secondly, the WIFIE in my room was next to non-existent. That was very disappointing. My sink had a small hole in it with cracks fanning out. The carpet was dingy at best. There are a dozen nicks, cuts, scraps and bald places on the walls. Below knee lever a paint job, some mudding and corner work was in order. Coffee on offer was Nescafe. Yuck. The milk was powered. Yuck, again. The windows leading to the street were leaky of both cold and the various and loud street noises. The bed was very comfortable. The room was very, very cramped. As for the TV, well, two remotes made for confusion, while all of th very many channels are Turkish, meaning no English channel, no French channels, nothing but Turkish. So, bottom line, it is not an international hotel, dingy, badly maintained with a staff that was exceptionally nice, but couldn't understand any of the more popular languages I knew.
