Overall disappointing, in an industrial area but walkable to the old town
Pros:

Whilst the hotel is reasonably presented in a post industrial fit out, exposed conduit ( electrical tube for the US readers), probably to blend in to its immediate surroundings, which is definitely industrial. We opted for a larger room than initially allocated, it was too small for a 4 day stay with luggage. Unfortunately the “upgrade” cost an additional €60 per night!
However, as we arrived after midnight we had little choice.
It is located about 300m from the bridge which takes you over to the old side of Istanbul, so once you have navigated the electrical, mechanical, pumps and wheels shops you can stroll out or catch the frequent trams, ( after purchasing your pre paid card). Back to the hotel. No restaurant , no bar and no food. They do offer a “Deliveroo” style delivery service for a price! Our room had a semi transparent
glass partition between the bedroom and the toilet/ shower. So be warned nothing is sacred! Room clean and lift worked but did not reach the top
Floor! So overall ok, but I’m sure you can find better less expensive hotel.

Pros:

Great affordable hotel in a good location, a few km from Taksim Square. Located in a workshop area but it's it a problem, a few meters down to street there are restaurants, shops etc.
Everything is fine with the hotel and the room. Any problem (in my case a small faulty fridge) immediately fixed.
Staff super nice and helpful.
I choose this hotel after a bad experience with a hotel nearby not long ago and will certainly return on my frequent Istanbul trips.

Pros:

Sehr geehrte Damen und Herren ,

Ich war überrascht von dem Unterkunft . Ich habe vor der Anreise gute sowohl auch schlechte Bewertung gelesen aber im Gegenteil waren wir insgesamt positiv überrascht. Ich fange von außen Bereich an. Es ist in einer Gasse da braucht man nicht viel erwarten . Das Hotel sind ordentlich aus. Personal waren wir zufrieden sehr nett und die Reinigungskraft hat immer auf uns gehört es fehlte nichts alles war sauber . Für den Preis ist es eine ordentliche mit gutem Gewissen empfehlenswerte Hotel . Ich meine ordentlich , sauber , klimatisiert genügend definitiv . Klima war top hat funktioniert einizige kleine Sache entweder haben wir es nicht hin bekommen oder hatten Probleme mit dem Kühlschrank . Insgesamt 4 Personen 2 getrennte Zimmer war ausreichend und top ich muss wircklich sagen nochmals Sauber! Alles lag wircklich sehr nah . Ich muss aber sagen als Frau alleine würde ich da nicht gerne rum laufen mit Begleitung ist es im Ordnung .
Ich bedanke mich an das ganze Team . Gerne nochmal ☺️
