The hotel is located in a very strategic area, making it easy to access key attractions, and the breakfast was fresh and tasty. However, the rooms need significant repairs, particularly with the noisy air conditioning and some plumbing issues. The service experience was a mixed bag, with some staff being helpful while others were less welcoming.

The rooms were clean, but they really need some repairs. The toilet had a sewage smell, and the air conditioning was quite noisy. They gave me a room on the fifth floor, which could've been better, with the glass wall separating the shower and toilet being broken.

I had a nice stay at this hotel, which is centrally located yet avoids the overwhelming noise of Taksim. The rooms were nice and clean, and I appreciated the friendly staff who offered great value for money. However, the air conditioning was disappointingly cold despite having two units, and the dining experience could use some improvements.

The hotel is situated in a great location, close to the main areas of old Istanbul and near public transport. However, the rooms left a lot to be desired; they were cold and not very clean. The staff was friendly and helpful, but there were some communication barriers. Overall, the value for money is not ideal due to the poor condition of the rooms and dining options.

My stay at the hotel was quite a mixed experience. The location was great, close to various attractions and easily accessible, but I faced several issues with my room.
