Pros:

Şimdiye kadar yaptığımız en keyifli konaklamalardan biriydi ve her detayıyla mükemmel bir deneyimdi. İlk andan itibaren güler yüzle karşılandık ve tüm ihtiyaçlarımızla özenle ilgilenildi. Otelin konumu çok avantajlı, odalar son derece temiz ve konforluydu. Otelin atmosferi, hizmet kalitesi ve çalışanların yaklaşımı gerçekten üst seviyedeydi. En çok etkilendiğimiz nokta ise çalışanların samimi, ilgili ve profesyonel yaklaşımı oldu. Her ayrıntının düşünülmüş olması bizi çok memnun etti. Rahat, temiz ve kaliteli bir konaklama arayan herkese kesinlikle öneriyoruz.

Die Suite ist schön
Pros:

Wir haben ein kostenloses Upgrade bekommen. Die Suite war dann sehr groß und schön. Im Gegensatz zu anderen Zimmern war auch alles funktionsfähig. Die Lage grundsätzlich gut. Vieles zu Fuß erreichbar.

Cons:

Die Lautstärke vom Pub gegenüber.

Sehr laut und heruntergekommen.
Pros:

Die Lage ist gut. Sehr zentral. Vieles fußläufig erreichbar. Das Personal tut viel, um den Aufenthalt angenehmer zu machen.

Cons:

Durch die zentrale Lage ist es sehr laut. Direkt gegenüber ist ein Pub, der bis tief in die Nacht Musik spielt. Wenn dann noch ein Europapokalspiel mit englischen Fußballfans in der Stadt ist, geht dort die Party mit Trommeln und Trompeten bis um 4 Uhr in der Früh. Wir konnten dann ein Zimmer nach hinten heraus und ohne Fenster bekommen. Das war allerdings sehr klein und ohne jeglichen Komfort. Generell war in den Zimmern viel kaputt (Safe, Fön, Schrank, Duschkopf, Steckdosenleiste und mehr). Zwar wurde es nach der Beschwerde schnell repariert, aber das wäre besser im Vorfeld geschehen.

ليلة صاخبة لم يكن النوم فيها سوى ساعة
Pros:

للأسف كانت تجربة سيئة

Cons:

‏ مبنى الفندق قديم جدا
‏شارع ضيق جدا
‏شارع فيه إزعاج عالي في الليل خاصة السبت ليلة الأحد
‏الغرف ضيقة 14 متر فقط بما في الحمام ومطبخ تحضيري
‏إزعاج في الليل مراقص وبارات
الاسياب ضيقة جدا
المصعد صغير جدا
لا انصح بالفندق للخليجيين وخصوصا العائلات
فندق يصلح أستودع الله دينكم وأمانتكم، وخواتيم عملكم. زوَّدك الله التقوى، وغفر ذْنبكم ويسَّر لكم الخير حيث ما كنت. الاقتصادي الذي يبحث عن التوفير والصخب ويكون ملاصقا لشارع الاستقلال
طبعا الوضع أسواء إذا كان شخصين

Pros:

Hotel je u blizini jednog od najvećih trgova, kao i u blizini najvećeg šetališta. Velika je pogodnost što su sve stanice javnog prevoza veoma blizu. Soba se čisti svaki drugi dan, prilikom čege se menja i posteljina koja je fenomenalna.

Cons:

Ono što se nama nije svidelo je udobnost sofe koja je veoma kratka i nije za spavanje, kao i to što je soba gledala na ulicu u kojoj je svake noći velika gužva i po celu noć je veoma bučno, pa je bilo vrlo teško spavati.

вид с терассы супер
Pros:

брали люкс с терассой, вид супер! ну до люкса ему далеко)) но все чистенько, локация тоже супер! истикляль 2 мин ходьбы, в стамбуле мы раз 20… все здесь знаем, в отель на такси а обратно на метро в аэропорт истамбул-удобно 1 пересадка и без пробок

Cons:

по вечерам очень плохой интернет, почти не работал.. на терассе нет сиденьев.. были только 2 мини табуретки и 1 министолик в номере, посуда есть вся, но не оставили ни средство мыть посуду ни даже губку..

Очень удачное расположение!
Pros:

Нам все очень понравилось!
Номер соответствует фото, все оформлено в едином стиле. Номер очень компактный, но в то же время все продумано, тесноты не ощущается.
Отдельно хочется отметить наличие зеркала в полный рост на входной двери. 👍🏻
Горячая вода без перепадов, напор хороший.
В номере тепло.
Вайфай стабильный.
Минимальный набор посуды есть, чайник, плита, микроволновка и холодильник- исправно работали. Постели и полотенца чистые.
Расположение просто шикарное - 3 минуты неспешного шага от метро и площади Таксим.
Благодарим команду отеля за гостеприимство! ❤️

Cons:

Так как мы целыми днями гуляли по Стамбулу и в отель приходили только спать, незначительные мелочи, такие как легкая усталость интерьера и небольшая группка муравьев в районе кухни, нас никак не тревожили.
Все отлично! 👍🏻

Pros:

I appreciate they accepted an early check in. I arrived to Istanbul early in the morning, so it was a life saver.

Cons:

When the property was new, for sure it was way nicer than now. Now it's so worn out and seriously need some maintenance. Little sofa was quite dirty, same as the microwave and kitchen stuff, rusty tap in the kitchennette, shower door broken.
The place is SUPER loud since it's located right at the little street full of bars and pubs, and the windows are facing one of the pubs.
