Hotel v centru evropské části Istanbulu, všude je kousek
Pros:

Hotel je přímo na pěší zóně evropské části Istanbulu. Restaurace na střeše s výhledem na moře a je tady i bazén v ceně hotelu

Cons:

Přes okna je všechno slyšet z ulice, bylo by potřeba je opravit a uklidit by mohl být taky trochu lepší

Room to improve
Pros:

Breakfast was good also the location

Cons:

Staff too pushy, they didnt clean my room in one day, not a free bottle of water, one day i found a blood spot in one sheet and it wasnt mine. You can hardly communicate in english with reception. They have a mini bar with a clear door and a bright bulb, i had to unplug the minibar to be able to sleep, reception didnt help

Pros:

La colazione è abbondante x gli ospiti mediorientale, quella continentale scarsa.
La location perfetta x chi vuole fare 2 passi e raggiungere le attrazioni principali, ma i tramway sono a 50 mt e portano dappertutto.

Cons:

Le camere non grandissime in compenso la tv ultra large.

Room keycards would sometimes stop working but the staff promptly fixed that every time. It was mildly inconvenient after a long day.
