If you want a simple an elegant hotel near the Hagia Sophia, it is a great option!
Pros:

Perfect staff. Very friendly and helpful. Great selection of simple do it yourself breakfast items. The room was very neat and tidy and the bed was one of the most luxurious and softest I have ever experienced! Amazing location for the price. And only a 3 minute walk from the Hagia Sophia, right in the heart of the old city! Would definitely come again!

Cons:

My room was on one of the top floors so I had to walk a few flights of stairs whenever I came back to the hotel, as there is no elevator. Also there is a student hostel and bar right beside the hotel, so it tended to be a bit noisy late at night. But as I remember after 11pm (or so) it all quieted down.

Nice hotel with super friendly staff, who introduced us lots of places to visit and also could provide help to make a re
Pros:

The hotel’s cat is adorable! Very good location, close to super famous touristic places, very nice and friendly staff! Especially the Azerbaijan lady, who’s cooking breakfast (sorry writing review a little late that’s why unfortunately forgot her name🙇🏻‍♀️). Also the hotel has terrace at the entrance where is very lovely have a cup of tea or coffee taming their cat

The room was a little bit smaller then we expected
