Pros:

Location - close to Taksim Square

Cons:

They use a central AC and it was blowing heat when turned on in April. So no AC, room was extremely stuffy with no ventilation. Only has 1 window which can’t be fully opened, required staff to unlock fully with the key. Furniture seems run down.

Will never stay there again.
Pros:

The location was decent and Mr Duray was an excellent manager.

Cons:

Breakfast staff were extremely unfriendly. Like they are doing us a favor by serving us. Also breakfast selection was highly limited.
Room was extremely dated with a dirty carpet. The worst thing was that the central heating stayed on the entire night and was extremely hot and stuffy.

Pros:

De kamers waren erg schoon

Cons:

Er was geen werkende airco. Doordat de ramen ivm geluid dicht moesten was het erg warm op de kamers. Het ontbijt was niet altijd even vers.

Worst Stay Ever – No AC, No Water, No Support
Pros:

Nothing

Cons:

Extremely disappointing experience. I reported issues on the second day but received no response until after I checked out. No proper air conditioning for 4 days—my kids couldn’t sleep and were constantly distressed. The property was poorly cleaned, especially the toilets, and there was even no water available one night at midnight.

très bon séjour !! Et super personnel !!
Pros:

20/20 pour le personnel qui était super !! Nous avons eu un super accueil !! L’hôtel était propre et le petit déjeuner très sympathique. L’emplacement était parfait .

Cons:

C’est juste dommage qu’il n’y est pas une lumière plus puissante dans la chambre , le soir on ne voit pas grand chose. Et dommage que la piscine soit trop froide pour pouvoir se baigner!!

Cons:

Konaklamamızdan oldukça memnun kaldık. Otel genel olarak temiz ve düzenliydi. Konumu çok avantajlı; hem Taksim’e hem de havalimanı ulaşım araçlarına oldukça yakın. Personel son derece ilgili ve yardımcıydı. Özellikle kahvaltı saatini kaçırmamıza rağmen bize kahvaltı yapma imkânı sunmaları büyük bir incelikti. Misafir memnuniyetine gerçekten önem veriyorlar. Tekrar tercih edebileceğimiz bir otel.
