Overall, a Mostly Positive Experience - Would Recommend with a Caveat...
Pros:

Overall, a mostly pleasant experience. Taksim Story Residence is just 5 minutes away from Taksim Square. It's "quite literally" just off of Taksim Square, but in an area worked by prostitutes come early afternoon. That is certainly not Taksim Story's responsibility, but it may be a concern. The immediate neighborhood itself is charming, with eateries and grocery stores. My wife and I found the people nice, and the neighborhood seems to be revitalizing into a worthwhile and legitimate alternative for backpackers and budget-minded travelers. The room was just as depicted in photos. The staff was very helpful and a plus!

Cons:

The room felt dirty. Additionally, the bathroom wasn't cleaned prior to our arrival. We knew this by a small collection of empty body gel bottles in the shower that hadn't been disposed of and the lack of toilet paper available. "Cleanliness is next to Godliness," they say, and less than sparkling clean can feel off-putting if not very disappointing.

Хорошо для своей цены
Pros:

Номер чистый и теплый, в отеле есть лифт, работает ресепшен. Персонал приветливый - мне прислали письмо с рекомендациями, как найти отель. Выбрала отель, т. к. он близко к остановке автобуса HavaIst, удобно добираться в аэропорт. Будет несколько крутой спуск в одном переулке или вы можете пройти по ступенькам.

Cons:

При бронировании не было указано, что номер находится в цокольном этаже. Мне не повезло, что окно было над кроватью (номер 601). В номере напротив кровать была расположена удобнее.

Pros:

Biz 12 gün kaldık ve dairenin büyüklüğü özellikle uzun konaklamalar için mükemmel. Dairede tüm olanaklar mümkün tv rahat koltuklar rahat yatak temiz çarşaflar temiz havlular istediğiniz zaman yenilerini temin ediyorlar. Sadece daire biraz daha temiz olabilir ama yine de iyiydi. Taksim meydanına ve metroya çok yakındı. Resepsiyondakiler Muhammed ve özellikle Raşid her istediğimizi anında temin ettiler çok içten ve samimiydiler kendimizi evimizde hissettik hatta çıkacağımız gün uçağımız akşam olduğu için istediğimiz kadar kalabilirsiniz dediler . Herşey için çok teşekkür ederiz.

Cons:

Tek olumsuzluk daireden caddeye çıkılan yokuştu ama o da çok uzun bir mesafe olmadığı için idare edilebilir.

Pros:

Отличное месторасположение. Прям рядом с площадью Таксим, если нужен вариант переночевать и двигаться дальше - идеально.
Имейти ввиду, если вы с тяжёлыми чемоданами, будет тяжеловато катить их к отелю, довольно большой уклон. За свою цену отличное место.

Pros:

Расположение отеля недалеко от площади Таксим, рядом есть недорогие ресторанчики, где можно перекусить и до метро недолго идти

Cons:

У моего номера окна выходили во внутренний двор, где всю ночь включались какие то насосы, вентиляция, кондиционеры, было невозможно спать из за этого шума. Номер тесный, изголовье кровати упирается в окно и её не сдвинешь никуда. Ванная комната тоже очень маленькая, везде не развернуться
