Sirkeci.... perfekt für einen kurzen Aufenthalt
Pros:

Die Lage ist schlicht weg perfekt. Kiosk und Restaurant um die Ecke und ein paar Minuten zu Fuß zur Tram... schlichtweg mittendrin. Ich liebe diese Ecke. Zum Shoppen ist es OK aber anderswo preiswerter.
Zum Frühstück kann ich nichts sagen....

Cons:

Mir fällt nichts Negatives ein

Pros:

Ottima posizione, staff un po’ assente, le ragazze lavorano tanto ma i maschi stanno tutto il giorno seduti con il telefonino e a volte non alzano neppure lo sguardo per salutare. Colazione non sublime ma la signora del breakfast gentilissima e cordiale. Letto comodo, stanza abbastanza ampia, bagno comodo. Per fortuna che ero al primo piano: scala a chiocciola e niente ascensore. Ma il rapporto qualità prezzo è davvero molto buono.

location perfetta, camere 'Economy' da evitare perchè per nulla insonorizzate
Pros:

posizione

Cons:

camera a fianco della reception senza alcuna insonorizzazione quindi molto rumorosa, tra staff e ospiti.
bagno molto piccolo e poco funzionale.

We liked our stay for 10days . Location brilliant but breakfast disappointing .
Pros:

We had a deluxe room with balcony … liked the balcony as view of Hagia Sophia. Room clean, light, spacious , but not deluxe and in a separate bland building to main in photo. Breakfast also in another building .. breakfast variety mainly not geared to Western taste. Staff excellent, friendly.

Cons:

Our room was not really deluxe and in a building with no character. The breakfast was varied but not really choices for a western market .

Location, location, location !!!
Pros:

Location was excellent. Very close to attractions and tram line.

Cons:

The property has no lifts, restaurant or soundproof rooms. The bedding was very uncomfortable and room was very dated. Daily cleaning did take place but no bedding was ever changed in the 5 night stay, however towels were changed. Staff were not friendly and never greeted us when we would leave or arrive back numerous times a day. A couple of times during the night we were woken by other guests being very loud, drunk, running, stomping and moving furniture above us and next door to us. When we went to reception at 2am to complain and ask for them to do something about it the staff member nodded and carried on watching football on his phone.
