Confortável
Pros:

Fica pertinho de uma rua popular em que tem de tudo. Os recepcionistas foram todos muito simpáticos, tinha chá e café. Se precisarem de táxi podem pedir na recepção, que inclusive eu ia pedir o mais caro e me aconselharam a pegar outro e que saiu muito mais barato. Na frente tem um restaurante chamado Berat Lahmacun é muito barato e você se sente dentro da Turquia.

Cons:

Não

إقامة رائعة وتجربة ممتعة، لولا بعض التفاصيل التقنية البسيطة.
Pros:

• تجربة إقامة مميزة ومريحة، والمكان يستحق الزيارة مرة أخرى.

Cons:

• ملاحظة بخصوص المصعد: المصعد لا يبدأ من الدور الأرضي، بل يجب صعود طابق كامل على الدرج للوصول إليه من الدور الأول، لذا وجب التنويه لمن لديهم أحمال ثقيلة أو كبار سن.
• صيانة الحمام: يوجد تذبذب في حرارة المياه داخل الدش (تتغير تلقائياً بين الحار والبارد)، الأمر الذي يحتاج إلى فحص تقني لراحة النزلاء.

Pros:

This hotel has easily become our favorite stay so far. From start to finish, everything was perfect.
The hospitality was exceptional, the staff made us feel truly welcome and went out of their way to ensure we had a great experience. The room was incredibly comfortable, clean, and provided the perfect atmosphere to relax in after a long day of exploring. The location was also ideal, making it easy for us to navigate the city.
We couldn’t have asked for a better base for our time here. Highly recommended to anyone looking for a seamless and memorable stay in Istanbul!
Thanks to the whole staff!

Pros:

A cozy hotel in the very heart of Istanbul right next to Istiklal avenue. The room and bathroom were very clean and the bed big and comfortable.
The staff at the reception was kind and responsive especially the lady who was perfectly fluent in English and always with a smile on her face. I recommend this hotel if you want to enjoy Taksim square and Istiklal avenue and at the same time sleep calm in your bed.

Cons:

Nothing
