Excellent Location. Mehmet is a great host
Pros:

Mehmet made my stay with his guidance in Istanbul. Mehmet is an incredible host that can give you alot of advice on Istanbul. The location is excellent to navigate your stay in Istanbul. Karakoy is flat and easy to walk. The tramline is just infront of the hotel (about 30 metres) and its very easy to commute to the old city but much better to stay this side for the evenings. Getting a taxi or uber is also very easy from Opet Garage just infront of the hotel (this is very important in Istanbul). Galataport is a few minutes walk away. I recommend you try food at Siftah Antep Kebap (just near the hotel at the corner), Mahal Antep for baklava and kebab, Fasuli for local beans; rice and meat, Kikirik for Mante (Turkish Ravioli), Karakoy Gulluoglu for baklava.

Cons:

I'd love a coffee machine in the hotel

Excellent stay in a well located boutique hotel with friendly and helpful staff that never missed a beat. Would definite
Pros:

The property is well located, well maintained and has nice period features. The property was kept spotlessly clean throughout our stay and the staff was always prepared to go the extra mile

Cons:

The closets may be a bit on the small side, as well as the side tables; this is primary as a result of the period furniture that’s used throughout the property

Excellent!
Pros:

The location was perfect and the staff went above and beyond to help me with my stay. I overslept for my taxi upon departure, and the manager was kind enough to wake me up. Could not be happier with my stay!

Great location and staff
Pros:

Unbeatable location. So many restaurants, bars, cafes within a 5 min walk. The guy working on the front desk was super nice and was always nice to be greeted by his smiling face each time I returned to the hotel

Cons:

For the price, there isn’t much you can complain about
