Pros:

Le personnel et la proximité des principales attractions

Cons:

La cuisine
Il faut ajouter 50 Euros/jours pour avoir droit à la vue Bosphore (Une vue sur 2 degré)
L'hôtel ne dispose pas d'un service de soin rapide (L'hôtel ne prend pas en charge les soins en cas de malaise)
J'ai eu un malaise sur place et l'hôtel m'a clairement demandé de payer l'équivalent de 16 000 L (320 euros) pour avoir droit à un médecin en urgence.
