Non so se ci tornerei Se
Pros:

La posizione è eccezionale, al centro tra i quartieri Kadiköy e Moda. Il prezzo della camera è tra i più convenienti nella zona.

Cons:

Personale gentile ma inefficiente. Ogni giorno un problema, phon non funzionava, riscaldamento ha smesso di funzionare, abbiamo comunicato al personale i disservizi ma nonostante la loro gentilezza non sono seguiti i fatti, 2 GG per avere un phon, un giorno e diversi solleciti per avere una camera con riscaldamento funzionante (peccato che aveva due letti singoli) e per finire l'ultima notte l'ascensore ha cominciato a fare un rumore fortissimo tutta la notte e non siamo riusciti a dormire.

Pros:

La localización me gustó, en una calle principal y muy cerca de cualquier cosa que necesites. La ducha tenía agua caliente. La cama era muy cómoda. Estaba limpio. Tiene ascensor

Cons:

Me tocó una habitación sin ventana, aunque no pasé demasiado tiempo dentro de la habitación, una habitación sin ventana siempre parece un zulo más que una habitación. La habitación estaba justo en frente del ascensor el cual a su paso por los pisos 4 y 5, en muchas ocasiones hacía un ruido muy fuerte, como si rozara con algo. Las paredes de las habitaciones son finas y se oye todo. Este ruido del ascensor se escuchaba tanto que no pude dormir bien ya que hubo gente usándolo durante la noche.

La habitación además estaba sin terminar, o eso parecía.

En mi opinión el precio del alojamiento es carísimo para lo que obtienes, además no incluye desayuno

Lage super Klima kaputt
Pros:

Die Lage war super
Das Zimmer sauber
Preis-Leistung ist gut

Cons:

Wir waren im Winter hier und die Klimaanlage funktionierte nicht. Am ersten Tag froren wir und obwohl wir das Personal darauf aufmerksam machten, gaben sie uns lediglich eine weitere Decke (die Außentemperatur betrug 3 Grad Celsius und kalte Luft strömte aus der Klimaanlage). Sie sagten, der Techniker würde kommen. Am nächsten Abend war es wieder kalt und nachdem ich mich erneut beschwert hatte, brachten sie einen Heizstrahler. Glücklicherweise war diese gut und hat das Zimmer schön warm gemacht...

Pros:

Well, it is in walkable distance to ferries and near all kinds of shops.

Cons:

The receptionist was not very nice. The room is small, no windows, not very clean. The area around the hotel was super dirty. I would not stay a second time and would not recommend it.
