ottimo rapporto qualità/prezzo e posizione eccezionale
Pros:

Ottimo rapporto qualità/prezzo. La stanza, pur essendo piccola, era pulita e ben tenuta. Il letto confortevole e grande. Il bagno pulito e funzionale con una bella cabina doccia. Colazione, servita al roof dove si gode di una vista impagabile, buona e ogni giorno veniva offerto qualcosa di diverso. La posizione è perfetta in quanto si è a 50 metri dalla torre di Galata, a una passeggiata da piazza Taksim e direttamente sulla stazione della metro verde di Sishane. Personale gentile e premuroso

Cons:

La camera interna ha una finestra inutilizzabile in quanto affaccia su un cavedio interno buio e angusto.

Wonderful stay in the heart of Beyoglu
Pros:

Chose the hotel for its location ( proximity to metro station ) and modern design. The staff was very nice ( Firat at the reception and all his collegues ), the breakfast area is located at the top floor which gives superb views over the Golden Horn and Galata Tower and offers a wide variety of choices. And let's not forget the hotel cat- Cicek ( i hope i spelled it correctly from Turkish). The surrounding area is lively animated, full of restaurants, cafes and shops but that doesn't affect the guests' sleep.

Cons:

Couldn't fault them with anything

Eine wirklich sehr angenehme und gute Zeit im Hotel, sehr empfehlenswert!
Pros:

Die Zimmer wurden wirklich täglich geputzt, es war sehr sauber. Zudem war das Frühstück auch sehr gut. Ich kann es nur weiterempfehlen.

Das Zimmer ist etwas klein, war aber nicht so wichtig, da wir nur abends zum schlafen dort waren.

Hotel top, chambre trop petite
Pros:

Emplacement idéal, près du métro et des rues de Beyoglu, et à 15min à pied environ du pont Galata pour prendre le bateau vers d'autres destinations.
Personnel très accueillant.
Le petit déjeuner avec vue incroyable ! Nous sommes restés plusieurs jours, et chaque fois c'était différent.

Cons:

Chambre très petite où l'on ne voyait même pas la lumière du jour, un peu frustrant le matin au réveil.
La salle de bain avait une mauvaise odeur également, malgré la porte fermée et la VMC enclenchée.

Pros:

Super Lage. Frühstück mit genialem Ausblick auf die Altstadt und täglich wechselndem Angebot.

Cons:

Ein paar kleine Macken an dem Zimmer (eine Lampe war defekt, die Temperatur von der Dusche hat von kalt auf warm hin und her gewechselt)
Aber nix Wildes 😁
