Pros:

La proximité des sites touristiques, l'accueil et la disponibilité ( avec une mention spéciale pour Ali , réceptionniste, et la variété du petit déjeuner.

Cons:

La chambre était un peu étroite, pas de chaîne française dans la panoplie des menus télévisés (mais une belle part en russe!)
Un problème de voisins bruyants un soir dans le couloir n'a pas donné lieu à l'intervention du veilleur !

Brilliant location with friendly staff
Pros:

The location was central to most of the iconic sites of the Sultanahmet area. The terrace was a calm oasis for breakfast and an afternoon tea.

Cons:

The door to our room moved with the vacum of other doors opening on the floor, we wedged a free slipper in and it did the trick. The AC was a little noisy but again not a big issue for us and slept really well.

Pros:

Расположение супер! Все рядом, при этом на улице в общем-то тихо.

Cons:

1. Самое слабое место это завтрак. Выбор очень скромный, сами продукты среднего качества и минимум ротации, НО, придя к началу завтрака мы обнаружили что многое (типа сыра или нарезки арбузов) может храниться со вчерашнего дня. 🙈

Pros:

Doskonała lokalizacja. W pokojach były pewne niedociągnięcia np. kran zamontowany tak że woda leci poza umywalkę, ale cena za nocleg nie była wysoka. Na śniadaniu spory wybór produktów.

Pros:

Locația hotelului este foarte bună, central, aproape de multe obiective de vizitat din Istanbul, aproape de stație de tramvai. M-as întoarce cu plăcere la acest hotel, având în vedere mai ales prețul.

Cons:

Spațiul e puțin cam mic pt camera cu 3 paturi. Ferestrele camerei au dat spre un zid, dar având în vedere ca timpul petrecut în camera era doar noaptea când dormeam nu ne-a deranjat.
