لما بدنا نرجع لاسطنبول رح نرجع لنفس الفندق ♥️
Pros:

Everything was great and nice, and most importantly, it's very close to the Aksaray tram station.

كل الشكر والتقدير لإدارة الفندق وطاقم العمل على مستوى النظافة العالي، وحسن المعاملة، والاهتمام براحة الزبائن.
كما نخصّ بالشكر SERKAN و CEREN على استقبالهم الراقي، وأسلوبهم اللطيف، وابتسامتهم الدائمة التي تضيف شعورًا بالراحة والترحيب.
كانت تجربة مميزة وتعكس احترافية عالية واهتمامًا حقيقيًا 👍👍

Pros:

Great location. Many shops around although most of it close pretty early. We got a room with the mosque view which is lovely. Metro tramway is right infront of the hotel. Bus to the IST airport is also nearby. Love the breakfast! Lots of options. The staffs at the hotel were all friendly too.

Cons:

The toilet had a weird sewage smell. Room felt a little stuffy but not an issue as we can open the big window anytime.

Satisfăcător daca ai toleranta!
Pros:

Localizare bună!

Cons:

Apropierea de inelul de circulație, motivul principal pentru care nu puteai să deschizi geamul pentru că erau multe gaze de eșapament, la etajele inferioare și zgomotul infernal al traficului. Nu funcționa bazinul dela SPA. Mic dejun saracacios si nediversificat. Curățenie superficială. Camera era aglomerată cu 3 paturi in contiile in care rezervarea a fost făcută și specificată pentru 2 persoane si selectia a fost pentru etajul superior. Unii angajați draguti, barbati, insa doamnele cu mai putina disponibilitate catre curtoazie.

Wundervoller Aufenthalt bei tollem Personal
Pros:

Das freundliche und jederzeit hilfsbereite Personal. Der Obstkorb zum Empfang sowie der angebotene Shuttle-Service zum Flughafen.

Cons:

Einige Lampen über dem Bett gingen leider nicht. Das Frühstück war für uns geschmacklich etwas ungewöhnlich, so dass wir es nur einmal probiert haben.

Séjour très agréable
Pros:

Un grand merci à tout le personnel, leur service fut remarquable notamment avec notre bébé. Plein de petites attentions notamment les macarons et les bouteilles d'eau tous les jours, ainsi que l'assiette de fruits à notre arrivée. De bons conseils pour les transports ainsi que les cartes SIM.
Merci à Onur et Tolga pour leur aide à notre départ nocturne, pour avoir appelé notre taxi.

Cons:

Petite fenêtre opaque en hauteur, nous n'avions pas de vue depuis cette fenêtre
