"EVERYTHING at the Istanbul airport is expensive, an overnight stay at the Yotel sleep cabin included. However, if you have an overnight layover at IST, it’s definitely worth it to have the quiet, privacy and security the sleep cabin provides. I was able to substantially reduce jet lag on my very long trip to Kurdistan, get a reasonably good night’s sleep, take a shower, and put on fresh clothes. The cabin was clean, spacious enough, and very comfortable. In a similar circumstance, I’d absolutely stay there again."

"Rooms need a little touch, nothing major example. Glass for toothbrushes. Robes, hangers only has 2 , better quality bath towels ,breakfast staff should be more attentive to customers rather then clearing tables, probably more choice of hot food at breakfast. Grill restaurant staff should wait until you finish your starters before serving dinner. Other than that all good."
