Good location, lots of eateries around.
Pros:

After checking in and exploring the area, it was actually very close to the main shopping area. The interior of the hotel was also very tastefully designed. We only stayed night as we have been to Turkey before but it was a very comfortable stay.

Cons:

The van drop off area made me a little nervous and it was a short uphill distance to the hotel. It was quite a hassle with heavy luggage.
It was a little noisy at night.
