Categories

Cleanliness
6
Mixed reports: several guests praised cleanliness (Arabic and Russian comments), but multiple reviews mention dirty rooms, broken/dirty showers, missed room cleaning for a week and worn sheets — overall below average cleanliness.
Service
9.2
Consistently praised staff: many guests thank Sait Bey and Sayed Asrar and describe staff as helpful, friendly and responsive; isolated reports of unfriendly or dishonest front-desk actions (early check-in/laundry charge) but overall service is a strong positive.
Location
8.8
Several guests note a very convenient, central location (close to metro, central Istanbul, near Şirinevler square) — location is a clear strength despite one mention of a crowded neighborhood.
Room Quality
6.6
Mixed room quality: positives include comfortable mattresses, spacious rooms and a nice terrace; negatives include broken lights, unpleasant bathroom smell, faulty shower and some old/worn linen — overall somewhat below average.
Amenities
6.8
Limited amenities noted: issues with hot water and inconsistent services, no on-site restaurant reported and advertised free breakfast appears unavailable — amenities are weaker than expected.
Value for Money
7.8
Guests describe the hotel as decent and reasonable for its price (one reviewer: 'rapport qualité prix correcte'); given the good service and location, value is above average despite facility shortcomings.
Food and Beverage
5.5
Negative comments about food/F&B: advertised free breakfast is inaccurate or discontinued and some guests note there is no restaurant — F&B is a clear downside.
Overall Experience
8.5

Pros:

Ich habe fast einen Monat in diesem Hotel verbracht. Ich möchte mich herzlich bei Sait Bey bedanken, der sehr hilfreich war. Auch bei der Ankunft meiner Mutter und meines Bruders gab es keinerlei Probleme.
Die Mitarbeiter waren sehr freundlich und herzlich, allerdings ist das Hotel selbst sehr alt und eigentlich in keinem bewohnbaren Zustand; es gibt dort viele Probleme. Insbesondere mit der Beleuchtung und der Wasserversorgung gab es Schwierigkeiten. Warmes Wasser gab es überhaupt nicht; man musste 10 bis 15 Minuten warten, bis es endlich floss. Dies habe ich auch bemängelt.
Ob ich noch einmal in diesem Hotel übernachten würde? Nein, das könnte ich nicht. Abgesehen vom Personal ist das Hotel leider nicht zu empfehlen. Ich möchte mich jedoch noch einmal ausdrücklich beim Personal für ihre Hilfsbereitschaft bedanken. Vielen Dank für alles

All in all, it’s a good stay for someone who doesn’t want the fancy thing, just an average stay and not that clean, stuf
Pros:

It’s decent, not the best, dirty and in a crowded neighborhood not the best

Cons:

It’s not clean and the stuff wasn’t friendly and they lie, I arrived early and ask them if I can check in early they said the property is full and there is no available room to check in, but then another guy was offering a room with extra fees.. I told them you guys just said no room available they answered if you pay for another night we can check you in, I did bc I had a long flight, the problem the room was not that good, the shower was broken and dirty, also when I asked about the laundry the guy at the desk told me a price to wash my cloths, but when they are done washing them they rise the piece and ask more money.. I had to pay anyways
