Negatieve Bewertung für dieses Hotel
​Verschwenden Sie Ihre Zeit, Ihre Nerven und Ihr Geld nicht in diesem Hotel!
​Der Service und das Verhalten des Personals waren wirklich schlecht. Es war überhaupt nicht sauber. Das Zimmer war winzig, und der Flur war so eng, dass man kaum durchgehen konnte – es wirkte wie eine Höhle. Sauberkeit war ein Fremdwort.
​Ich bin für eine Zahnimplantat-Behandlung eingereist. In einer Nacht blutete es während des Schlafens, und obwohl ich extra ein Handtuch über das Kissen gelegt hatte, ist etwas Blut durch das Handtuch auf den Kissenbezug gelangt. Das Personal hat sehr unangemessen und unfreundlich reagiert, Fotos gemacht und verlangt, dass ich 1.500 TL Schadenersatz zahle!
​Ich habe das verweigert. Nach Rücksprache mit dem Manager haben sie mir schließlich 500 TL abverlangt.
​Der Preis war dieses Hotel absolut nicht wert, und es ohne Frühstück zu buchen, war ein absoluter Fehler.

Pros:

距离独立大街很近,步行两百米。
酒店有电梯,但限两人,有可能需要根据重量分开乘坐。
我们住了两晚,每天都会提供瓶装水

Cons:

离塔克西姆广场有点距离,建议打车或者坐地铁。附近酒吧比较多,女生还是要注意结伴出行。
用谷歌地图导航酒店名易混淆,需要注意区分,别走错。

Pros:

Комната не такая маленькая как писали, свободно передвигались вдоем. Раковина в комнате была намного удобнее чем в ванной. С 7 этажа открывался красивый вид.

Great and galant greetings near Galata!
Pros:

Location literally right at the foot of Galata is marvelous! Right next to the metro station as well. Really wonderful choice for food and nightlife. Staff was also very polite. Great stay if you're just there for a solo journey.

Cons:

In the future, I know it can be difficult with all the requirements, but maybe keep patron's numbers and/or WhatsApp/WeiXin account to let them know about police activity and protests. I know that is not the hotel's fault, but it was jarring.
