We can say it is one of the best hotels I visited in Türkiye. The place is very quiet, very hospitable, the staff are very distinguished, and a very sophisticated style is worth experiencing.
Walkable distance of many istambul iconic places. Proximity of a small local market. Nice area to enjoy and appreciate the life style of the local residents.

Disliked: Amenities
The rooms are nicely renovated with a modern feel, clean and the bed was reasonably comfortable. The room was small but suited our needs nicely. We were worried about the smell of cigarette smoke but we didn’t notice any.
However, the room looked nothing like the picture. The room also looks quite large in the picture but after seeing the building, I doubt there’s a room that large.
You have to walk up a narrow and steep curved staircase to get to the room so that may limit some guests physically
There’s a nice restaurant with good food and friendly staff right beside the hotel.
The hotel was hard to find in the dark because it’s just a hole in the wall but the staff from the neighboring restaurant were happy to help
We arrived later than expected and the staff were waiting for us, which was nice. Beyond that, we didn’t see them much.
If you have a car, parking is difficult all around the area. There’s free parking nearby after 9pm and until 9am.
The only real downside is that they haven’t installed p-traps so the smell of sewage in the bathroom is pretty bad.
It can't be called a hotel! It was just rooms in a building with no secure entrance! There was no information or reception! Or anything to protect the guests inside!! Its location is very dangerous and dirty from the inside. The cigarette butts are full and the smell is bad from the excessive smoking in the rooms!The rooms are full of insects ! In general, it is not suitable to be displayed in your location! To preserve your reputation! I also hope that you contact the Hotel Association in Turkey to inspect it and stop promoting it as a hotel?

Das Zimmer war an sich relativ ok sag ich mal. Aber das man nach allem fragen musste ob es Seife Klo Papier Handtücher oder das mal das Zimmer gereinigt wurde. Alles nicht von selber gemacht nur auf Nachfrage. Dann wird das Zimmer gereinigt mit Kissen die voller Flecken sind und über all schwarze Haare auf dem Bett und das Bad war die absolute Katastrophe Spiegelschrank kommt einem die halbe Tür entgegen Oberer Spiegel des Spiegelschranks komplett zerbrochen. Die Dusche war komplett schwarz und vergammelt. Das Wasser wurde nur mal kurz stoßweise warm. Die Dusche ist nicht abgelaufen so das nach jedem Duschen das ganze Bad Unterwasser stand. Rezeption so gut wie nicht vorhanden es wird die halbe Nacht an der Rezeption geredet Fußball geguckt und geraucht. Ich weis ja nicht ob sowas normal ist. Mann könnte viel aus dem Zimmern machen aber wenn man alles so verwahrlosen lässt wird es nichts. WLAN auch nicht vorhanden. Das Geländer im Treppenaufgang auch komplett locker wenn man da nicht aufpasst fliegt man noch die Treppe runter.
Tuvaletten berbat bir koku geliyor, odalar asla temizlenmemiş bir parmak toz var her yerde... konumu işime yakın olmasa asla tercih edilecek gibi değil.
Zimmer könnte sauberer sein. Badezimmer war nicht ganz sauber (Waschbecken und Toilette). Sehr Laut mit den Cafés unten. viele shops und Cafés in der nähe sind schnell erreichbar.
Uygun fiyata çok temiz yüksek kalitede ve gerçekten şık bir daire. Kaldığımız en iyi otellerden biriydi. Her şey tastamam ve kaliteliydi. Bu fiyata diğer otellerde dandik bir televizyondan ötesi bulunmazken burada internete bağlanan ve gerçekten işimizi gören bir televizyon vardı. Buna ek olarak balkonumuz da vardı. Kış ayı olduğu için değerlendiremedik ama kesinlikle sıcak bir zamanda tekrar gelmek istiyoruz. Tüm çalışanlara teşekkürler.
Jeg ved ikke hvor jeg skal starte fra . Men kan godt sige hvis du ikke tåler røg skal du ikke der. Røget trænger ind i værelset da døren har en lille åbning for neden . Er ikke egernet til høje mennesker over 170 . Da gangen er meget smal. Rengøringen er dårlig . Kort sagt det eneste godt ved hotellet er placering .
