Pros:

Nagyon jó helyen van a szállás. Minden patyolat tiszta és illatos. A szállásadó kedves, segítőkész.
Ha legközelebb Isztambulba járunk 100% , hogy újra itt szállunk meg.

Pros:

Atrašanās vieta tuvu pilsētas vēsturiskām vietām, tirgiem, kafejnīcām, restorāniem un krastmalas promenādei, ērts istabas iekārtojums, interesants telpu interjers. Labs Wi-fi pārklājums. Ļoti labs un pilnvērtīgs informatīvais atbalsts no viesnīcas administrācijas puses - kā atbraukt, kā ērtāk iepazīt pilsētu. Tiek piedāvāts transfērs no lidostas un uz lidostu.

Cons:

Man gan tas netraucēja ļoti, bet ar to ir jārēķinās - blakus viesnīcai ir mošeja, tas nozīmē, ka ap sešiem rīta tiksiet aicināti uz ikdienas pirmo lūgšanu, it īpaši labi var dzirdēt, ja logs ir atvērts vēdināšanas režīmā.

Pros:

The hotel is very pretty, it is located at a 20 minutes walk from main attractions such as the Grand Bazaar or the Blue Mosque. Nearby you can find a lot of restaurants, some for the locals, with very good prices. The staff was extremely kind and helpful. The room was a bit little but very cozy.

Cons:

I think it would be a great idea to add a mini fridge to the room, in case people want to keep some snacks close to them.

Kostenfalle, nicht möglich zu schlafen
Cons:

Es wurden im Nachhinein Zahlungsanforderungen gestellt: Kissenbezug 5€, Bettbezug 10€, Fön 10€, Handtücher 15€
Das Bett ist federndurchzogen sodass schlafen praktisch unmöglich ist
Bitte auf keinen Fall buchen
Oder an das Personal: ändern!

Beautiful sea view and amazing hospitality
Pros:

The owner, Abdullah, was extremely helpful even before I arrived in Istanbul. He guided me, gave me useful advice and helped me with directions and practical information before my stay. The room was also very beautiful, comfortable, and had a lovely sea view. Abdullah’s hospitality and support made my stay even better.

Cons:

Nothing important. Overall, I had a very pleasant stay.

Koszos
Pros:

Jó környéken volt

Cons:

Az ablakot nem lehetett rendesen becsukni, nagyon sötét és kicsi volt a szoba, egyáltalán nem hasonlított a képekre, és koszos volt az ágynemű (voltak rajta hajszálak és barna foltok).
