Bardzo miły hotel, życzliwy i pomocny personel.
Pros:

Butikowy hotel ze śniadaniami. Bardzo miły, życzliwy personel, począwszy od przemiłych recepcjonistów i recepcjonistki,po Panie dbające o czystość w hotelu, śniadania. Cały personel bardzo pomocny, uśmiechnięty, zawsze doradzał, sprawdzał i polecał dostępne atrakcje. Dobre śniadania, kawa, herbata, słodkości. W pokojach czysto, codzienne sprzątanie, klimatyzacja, suszarka, kosmetyki. Zestaw do parzenia kawy i herbaty. Z hotelu blisko do Hagia Sophia, Błękitnego Meczetu i innych atrakcji turystycznych, religijnych, kulturalnych. W pobliżu hotelu restauracje, kawiarnie i małe sklepy z pamiątkami i spożywcze. Hotel posiada taras ale brak windy, natomiast schody nie powodują zmęczenia przy wchodzeniu
W hotelu zatrzymują się rodziny z małymi dziećmi. Jeszcze raz podkreślę fantastyczną atmosferę, tworzoną przez personel i właściciela hotelu, który osobiście dopilnowuje dobrego pobytu dla wszystkich gości.

Pros:

Всё было замечательно. Особенно персонал: дружественный и действительно заботливый.
Чистота и уборка без малейших претензий.
Хороший завтрак - правда любой завтрак в турецкой гостинице оказывается турецким (это хорошо).

Cons:

Расположение замечательное, но если у вас трудности с подъёмами в горку, то, возможно, лучше выбрать другой район. Хотя тренировка тоже не плохо. Это ни в коем случае не претензия к гостинице.
