Pros:

The rooms are small, but suffice if you spend most of the time outside. We only had one sunny day and the garden was an added bonus.

Cons:

The doors could be better, there was about half a centimeter gap in between the doors to the room and the door frame; the doors to the bathroom were incredibly hard to close properly.

Everything was great, I would definitely recommend this place.
Pros:

I had a great stay at this hotel. The location is excellent, with easy access to shops and restaurants nearby. The area feels very safe, which made the experience even more comfortable.

The staff member, Mr. Mahsun, was extremely friendly and helpful and was always available and easy to communicate with.

The room was warm and cozy, and the heating worked perfectly, which was very important.

最高!また泊まりたい!
Pros:

立地がとてもよかったです。ハギアソフィアなどの主要観光地は徒歩20分くらいでいけるし、ホテルの近くのレストランは比較的安くてとても美味しかったです。スーパーも近くにあります。スタッフは英語があまり話せませんが、フレンドリーで優しくて、問題ありませんでした😁👍
とても快適に過ごせました!
ここのホテルに限らず、坂がすごいので、大きなスーツケースがある時は大変そうです。
ローカルハマムもとても近く、よい経験でした!

Cons:

一番上の15号室に泊まりましたが、Wi-Fiのつながりがあまりよくありませんでした。

Pros:

Świetny kontakt z włąścicielem. Niezła lokalizacja - 20 minut piechotą do Błękitnego Meczetu - niestety, pod górę. 10 minut do kolejki, 20 minut do tramwaju.
