Pros:

Завтрак в отеле был хороший и разнообразный. Главным преимуществом отеля является его отличное расположение - все находится рядом и в пешей доступности. Поблизости расположено множество кафе, ресторанов и магазинов. Также рядом находятся Galata Tower и площадь Taksim Square, что делает проживание очень удобным как для туристов, так и для деловых поездок. Район оживленный, интересный и комфортный для прогулок.

Cons:

Однако сам отель требует обновления и ремонта. В ванной комнате заметны следы износа, в некоторых местах в номерах отходят обои. Также хотелось бы отметить, что персонал на завтраке и некоторые уборщицы были не очень дружелюбны в общении, что немного испортило общее впечатление от проживания.

Pros:

Emplacement

Cons:

Les fenêtres ne se ferment pas complètement. Il y a un jeu de 2 cm lassant passer le bruit et l'air. Beaucoup de bruit...

La salle de bain n'est pas bien isolée. En prenant une douche l'eau se repend dans la chambre sous le lit.

Nous avons pris 3 chambres et c'était la même chose dans les 3.

It did the job. A few things stopped it being a hotel I would recommend or look to go back to
Pros:

Staff were friendly although had little interaction with them. WIFI was really good. The location of the hotel to what I needed was good. Air conditioning worked very well

Cons:

Bed was very uncomfortable. Inflated cost due to event in city meant not value for money. Fridge did not work. Breakfast was maybe a little simpler than expected
