A little gem in the heart of Sultanahmet!
Pros:

The location was perfect, right in the heart of Sultanahmet, across a quiet road from the Haghia Sophia. It was easy to find your way back to and very safe to go out in the evening because the area around the Mosques was well lit and busy with families out strolling about, although that may have been partly because I was there during Ramadan. The restaurant had lovely views of the city and breakfast was good. The staff were lovely and very friendly. There was no separate bar but there was no difficulty in having a drink in the restaurant in the evening.

Cons:

Nothing. I was very happy with my stay at this lovely hotel.

Pros:

Mir hat besonders gefallen, dass die Unterkunft sehr sauber war und eine super zentrale Lage hatte. Außerdem war alles Wichtige in der Nähe und gut erreichbar.

Cons:

Die Mitarbeiter haben zwar zugesagt, sich um ein Problem in der Dusche (ein Loch) zu kümmern, allerdings wurde dies während meines Aufenthalts nicht behoben. Das Frühstück war leider sehr monoton und bot wenig Abwechslung. Zudem waren die Zimmer nicht gut schallisoliert, sodass man Geräusche von draußen deutlich hören konnte.
