Bien
Pros:

L’emplacement
Le personnel

Cons:

Séjour globalement correct, mais je tiens à préciser que les photos présentées sur le site ne correspondaient pas vraiment à la chambre que j’ai eue sur place. La réalité était différente de ce qui était annoncé, ce qui a été un peu décevant.

Cozy and quiet hotel :)
Pros:

Great value for money! I was a bit hesitant at first due to some reviews, but I’m glad I stayed here. The hotel is very clean, and the neighborhood is quiet and safe with no trash smell on the street. The location is great, very close to the center, and the street is quite manageable (just a typical Istanbul road, not overly steep like many others). The staff was lovely and even let us stay a bit past check-out for free. I would recommend this cozy hotel.

Cons:

Just a small tip: there was a bit of a strange noise at night (most probably coming from the elevator) that might need checking. We were in the 4th floor with no elevator and could still hear it when you're resting in the bed.
