Pleasant, problem-free and good value for money stay
Pros:

Gul Otel is a great value for your money. The room was very clean, we had everyday cleaning and changing of towels. Toiletries were of nice quality and the free water boiler with free tea and cofee was an extra positive surprise. Breakfast was very decent quality with quite a variety. The owners are extremely kind and always there to help with everything. They were so kind to give us the room earlier than official check-in time, and keep our luggage for a few hours after check out because of our late night flight. Distance to Metro Yenikapi is around 5 minutes walk, so very convenient. Overall, we had a pleasant and problem-free stay without breaking the buck.

Cons:

We would like the room to have a chair and a stool, so that we could sit or place our suitcase. The water pressure, when hotel was very busy, seemed to have a bit of a struggle.

Главные достоинства — доброжелательный персонал, чистота и комфорт.
Pros:

Пусть вас не пугает местоположение и дорога до отеля. Рядом станция метро, 15 мин до трамвая. В пешей доступности площадь Султанахмет. Чувствуется, что хозяева заинтересованы в том, чтобы ваш отдых прошел отлично и вы не отвлекались на мелочи. Вкусный сытный завтрак, уборка каждый день. Спасибо, обязательно буду рекомендовать вас друзьям

Cons:

Если вы чутко спите, просите комнату подальше от лифта. В остальном только плюсы

Really good value for money.
Pros:

Honest property, good value for money. The owner helped me with parking so i didn't pay anything.
You have to walk a bit to reach all the important areas but i didn't go there to sit all day in my room. Breakfast was enough for us and good. Thank God the bathroom was big enough, not like other hotels i visited before in Istanbul.
Cleaning was done daily. I'm satisfied with my choice.

Excelentes Funcionarios, boa relacão qualidade preço
Pros:

O melhor desta estadia foram os funcionários muito simpáticos e prestáveis! Boa relação qualidade preço. Boa Localização central apesar de estar numa rua um pouco caótica e suja.

Cons:

O quarto parecia mais agradável e confortavel nas fotos. Algumas coisas poderiam estar em melhor estado, como as portas e mobilia no geral.
