Pros:

It is value for money, very spacious room

Cons:

The room we got was on the -1 floor, there was a lot of noise from the bar as well as the AC unit outside our room. Generally the area is noisy, but you are better off with a room on a higher floor

Es war alles zu unserer vollsten Zufriedenheit!
Pros:

Das Personal war sehr freundlich besonders hervorzuheben und Danken möchte ich Herrn Atinc Atakan, er hat immer gute Tipps und ein Lächeln und freundlich Worte für uns. Das Zimmer war groß und wir auf den Bildern. Insgesamt war die Lage und die Umgebung wirklich sehr schön, es gibt mehre Cafés und Restaurants fußläufig. Der Marktplatz von Beksiktas ist gut zu Fuß zu erreichen. Uns hat es insgesamt sehr gut gefallen und wir werden bei unseren nächsten Istanbul Aufenthalt wieder dort buchen.

Cons:

Es gab keine negativen Punkte.

Sehr zentral gelegen, freundlicher Service, moderne Zimmer.
Pros:

Tolle Lage mit vielen Restaurants und Frühstücksmöglichkeiten in der Nähe, sehr netter Service, unser Zimmer war geräumig und sauber. Heizung mit AC.

Cons:

Es war ziemlich kalt im Januar - da wäre eine wärmere Bettdecke wünschenswert gewesen.

It’s nice but I wouldn’t go there again unfortunately
Pros:

I liked the location it’s close to everywhere like Beşiktaş, Ortaköy

Cons:

The staff were not very helpful or welcoming. My partner and I woke up late, around 4pm, and by that time the cleaner had already finished our floor, so our room wasn’t cleaned. When we went downstairs to explain this to reception, the staff member said, “Well, look at the time, they won’t be here now.” I explained that they were still in the building, just on a different floor, and that I didn’t need a full clean — just fresh towels and the essentials. Unfortunately, he wasn’t helpful at all.

When we first checked in, there was no one at the reception desk and we had to wait about 10 minutes. When someone finally came out, he wasn’t polite and didn’t apologise for the wait. If you’re someone who values good customer service, I wouldn’t recommend this place. Other than that, the stay was okay.

Also, the bed was very uncomfortable. The duvet kept coming undone, which made it difficult to sleep.

Pros:

GöKSEL IS THE BEST RECEPTIONIST EVER! i rarely leave feedbacks but this is BEST EXPERIENCE. Please increase salary for this guy. First he hold securely our staff while we were in the city and then he ordered cheap taxi for our flight back home. Always was gentle and responsive with our questions. Literaly saved us money and a lot of nerves.

Cons:

everything was good
