I loved everything! The staff, location, food, cleaniness.
Pros:

- The breakfast was a mixture of Turkish Breakfast and other non-Turkish options. More than one items were switched up daily, so you don't eat exactly the same thing every day.
- The staff was friendly and always available, even did more than what their job required.
- The hotel was not far from the Bosphorus or Iskitlaar Street! I enjoyed my night walks there.
- Spacious, cosy and looked exactly as presented in the pictures
- Easy access to bus stops and taxis
- The terrace (also the breakfast area) had an amazing view.
- The place was clean.

Pros:

Sehr gut gelegen neben U-Bahn und Innenstadt. Alles zu Fuß oder mit der U-Bahn schnell zu erreichen. Sehr sauberes Zimmer, bequemes Bett. 

Cons:

Ich hatte ein Zimmer im ersten Stock bekommen, diese befindet sich an einer stark befahrenen Strasse die laut ist und den Schlaf stört. Unmöglich ohne Ohrstöpsel zu schlafen!

Bellissima vista sulla città a due passi dalla torre di Galata
Pros:

Posizione ottima per visitare il quartiere di Galata e comoda agli spostamenti (fermata metro e autobus vicinissime per raggiungere tutte le altre zone della città). Personale gentilissimo e super disponibile, stanze accoglienti e pulite. Letti comodissimi. Buona colazione all'ultimo piano con una bellissima vista sul Corno d'Oro.

Cons:

Un po' troppo alta la temperatura in stanza senza la possibilità di abbassarla (dopo un po' tornava l'aria molto calda). Lo staff comunque si è dimostrato gentile tentando di aiutarci.
