10/10 Excellent
"Great location and extremely convenient for exploring Istanbul. The highlight for me was definitely the breakfast buffet honestly, some of the most delicious food I had during my stay. There was a great variety, everything tasted fresh, and breakfast was included with the stay at no extra cost. I would definitely stay here again."
