Recomiendo mucho este hotel, limpio cómodo y buena arquitectura .
Pros:

Si estás buscando y no sabes dónde ?
Te voy a explicar las razones por la que debes dormir aquí :

1. Cerca de estación de tranvía , al frente .
2. Frente al mar , tiene una azotea que puedes disfrutar la vista
3. El cuarto que rente fue una matrimonial y muy limpio y ordenado
4. Te dan cafetera para hervir agua para el café en el mañana , tiene nevera también
5. Cerca de restaurantes , minimarket y sobre todo está en un buen lugar para hacer compras como ropa , a buenos precios , encontré nuevos jeans pantalones a 4 euros !!!
6. El sonido de la mezquita no llega a los cuartos , bueno al menos en el mío estaba en el 4 piso y no se escuchaba .

Cons:

Las almohadas son muy gruesas , así lo sentí yo .
Mi cuarto era en el 4 piso , entonces luego de un día largo de caminar , va ser deporte subir , pero está bien .
No tienen ascensor .

Okay-ish
Pros:

The location is about a 10-minute walk from the center, but part of the way is uphill, so be prepared. 😂 If you prefer to avoid the hill, it takes around 15 minutes. There are plenty of restaurants nearby, so finding food is not an issue. The bed is comfortable, and the bathroom looks nice at first glance. Slippers and clean towels were provided.

Cons:

However, cleanliness was a problem for me. I really dislike seeing a used toilet paper roll instead of a new one, and unfortunately that was the case here. I also found someone else’s hair stuck to the bathroom door upon arrival, which clearly hadn’t been cleaned properly. 😅 The shelf in the shower is rusty, and there is no proper place to put a toothbrush or toiletries, so I had to improvise. Even a simple plastic cup would make a big difference.

There was dust above the bed, the floors didn’t seem properly cleaned, and I didn’t notice any sign that the bathroom had been disinfected.

Also, just as a note for future guests: there is a mosque right across the hotel, so you will hear the early morning call to prayer around 5 AM every day.

Transports proposés par cet hôtel = arnaque !
Cons:

Notre arrivée a jeté un froid sur le reste du séjour. Via la messagerie, l’hôtel me propose un transport depuis l’aéroport à l’arrivée et lors du départ pour 95€ (à payer en cash évidemment). En regardant les prix sur internet, les transports tournent plutôt autour de 80€ , mais je décide quand même de prendre un transport via l’hôtel pour être sereine. À l’arrivée, j’explique que je peux payer en livres turc, la monnaie locale, et le réceptionniste de l’hôtel me réclame alors soudainement 5200 Lr (donc plutôt 100€). En même temps, je vois une affiche derrière lui qui propose un trajet aller pour l’aéroport à 2000 Lr !!!! Je demande donc pourquoi l’aller retour ne me coûte pas 4000 Lr au vu de ce qui est affiché, il me répond que ce qu’on a réservé c’est un transfert et pas un taxi (????) . Il parle très difficilement anglais donc la conversation est compliquée. N’ayant pas dormi de la nuit et ne voulant pas faire d’histoires, je décide de payer les 5200 réclamés. Au moment de lui donner les billets je lui dis que je ne suis pas sûre de la somme et que je veux recompter mais il le fait pour moi et me dit que c’est bon. À mon arrivée dans la chambre, je recompte mon argent et je me rends compte que je lui ai donné 5500 Lr, et qu’évidemment il s’est bien gardé de me rendre les 300 en trop. Bref, ce n’est pas notre seule arnaque vécue lors du séjour à Istanbul, mais quand on séjourne dans un établissement on s’attend au moins à être reçus correctement, surtout que je pensais bien faire en acceptant leur transport. Ne vous faites pas avoir, vous trouverez des transports pour l’aéroport bien moins chers. Pour le reste, l’hôtel est bien situé , la chambre confortable , l’insonorisation est néanmoins inexistante et la salle de bain est moyennement entretenue .

Great value and clean hotel
Pros:

Really good value, with lots of restaurants nearby in a little square area! The room was large and had enough space for luggage, getting ready etc. Shower was also really good! Free water on arrival and tea/coffee facilities!

Cons:

Bed was quite hard compared to UK standards & for main attractions it was a little far out - but complete manageable unless you have mobility issues!
