Barato
Pros:

Queda en una zona relativamente turística, a 5 min de mezquita azul y 10 de santa sofia, a 20 min del gran bazar, todo caminando.

Para el precio, está bien.

Cons:

Nos tocó en el piso 3 y en las escaleras siempre había útiles de limpieza, bolsas de basura, el desayuno era siempre lo mismo, el baño tenía mala la tapa del WC, podría tener mejor limpieza. Sábanas con pelusas. Podría mejorar la limpieza y el desayuno.

Pros:

Osoblje je bilo divno. Bili su jako ljubazni i gostoprimivi. Doručak je bio isti svakog dana, ali je svakako bio prelep. Lokacija je super, sve je blizu. Iako ima nekih malih nedostataka, svakako preporučujem.

Cons:

Soba je jako mala i u wc-u nema gde da se odlože stvari, plus se wc šolja malo pomera

Good value for money
Pros:

This hotel was good value for money. It was affordable and a good location. It was close to the Blue Mosque area but not too close that it was loud or busy. The facilities and breakfast were basic but sufficient. Staff were friendly and moved our room as the window was broken.

Cons:

It was not necessarily clean. It was a basic property with some renovation flaws but the cleanliness definitely needed to be a bit more.
