Mustafa bey is helpful and friendly. I enjoyed my stay in Istanbul. Thank you very much 😊.
Pros:

The breakfasts were on time and fresh. There were cucumbers, tomatoes, 2 kinds of cheese, hard boiled eggs, 2 kinds of juice, 2 kinds of olives, 1 kind of sausage, little packets of jam and honey, 1 kind of bread.

The location is superb! Short walks to all major sites and to a Migros.

Cons:

There seem to be a lot of smoking going on in the rooms and in the common areas. The fumes came from the bathroom vents from other rooms.

The hotel is old with old furniture and sheets and towels.

The TV and the refrigerator didn't work.

My room was not clean and was not cleaned even once during my week long stay.

Please don’t take this hotel!!!!!!
Pros:

Only one thing we like is view point on top floor for breakfast view , that was good, except that very bad experience

Cons:

bad breakfast, no cleanness, not comfort, small room, no space to move around, dryer is not working, bed light no working, there was a small fridge near to bed it was so smelly, bedding was so nasty, ac was not working properly, very small tv in room but no remote, very small lift can only fit for 2 kids( it’s very scary) . WiFi not having enough speed. Please please don’t take this hotel. It is near to city centre but you will not get proper sleep and comfort. Hamble request don’t choose this hotel.

Bad
Cons:

The owner was really nice, friendly ans helpful, but the old guy working in the reception was the worst ever, he was screaming at us, doesn’t understand anything and very disrespectful toward my family. This ruined our holiday.
And the rooms were not clean at all.

it was great.
Pros:

The room was clean and pleasant. Breakfast was also satisfying.
But the best feature is location, 5 min walk from all the main attractions.
Also a lot of restaurants and a shop in the area.
The staff was very friendly and helpful.

Cons:

I would not change anything. It was value for money paid.
