Pros:

Местоположение.Цена.Чистота.Горячая вода с хорошим напором.Небольшой отель в самом центре старого Стамбула.
Завтрака не было,внизу есть ресторан, но открывается не понятно восколько. Позавтракать возможно в соседнем отеле в формате шведского стола за ~10 € или в любой кафешке-забегаловке, коих там несчесть.

Cons:

Cons:

I really enjoyed my stay at this hotel. Its location in the heart of Istanbul is unbeatable—most major landmarks and attractions were within easy walking distance or a quick ride away. The room was clean, well-maintained, and comfortable throughout my stay. If you're looking for a place that combines convenience with cleanliness, this hotel is a solid choice.

Would not recommend. Room smelled of smoke and many things were broken in the bathroom
Pros:

Very close to the centre of town

Cons:

Shower head was broken, toilet seat was loose, sink was loose, pillows were hard and room, especially the curtains, smelled of cigarettes. Had no hand towels and no floor mat so when the broken shower sprayed it got the whole bathroom floor wet

Pros:

привет меня зовут Али,я бил там со своей семьёй, мне понравилось всё что там было и прекрасно, единственная проблема была в том что в доме нет интернета хотя на Букинге когда я забронировал отель было написано что есть интернет. Когда я говорил работнику отеля почему нет интернета он каждый день говорил завтра починит и без интернета в доме прошла наш прекрасный отпуск это был единственный минус отеля
