Voor enkele dagen en nachten met toeristisch doel voldoet het. Helaas luidruchtige buren.
Pros:

De locatie is goed gelegen om lopend de bazaar en andere bezienswaardigheden te bezoeken. Moet je wel op steile wegen kunnen lopen. Personeel is vriendelijk, ontbijt prima.

Cons:

Kamer is behoorlijk gehorig. Bepaalde details zijn niet op orde zoals wel een waterkoker maar niet stopcontact er naast. En een spleet tussen bed en muur waarin je gemakkelijk iets kwijtraakt.

It was fine for our last 2 nights in Turkey, would stay again if we return to Istanbul.
Pros:

The location was okay. If you are are not arriving by car the property is on a steep cobblestoned street. Not too far from closest tram stop. The shower was the best shower we had in Turkey. Hot water, large shower cabinet and good water pressure. Excellent service from staff - especially the taxi service to the airport.

Cons:

Just the usual issue with rooms very small - challenging for suitcases and in general moving around in the room.

Très bon séjour !
Pros:

Un personnel tout simplement exceptionnel !
Le personnel de l’hôtel est prêt à tout pour le confort des clients. Dès l’arrivée, l’accueil est irréprochable : sourire, professionnalisme et une attention constante à toutes les demandes. La chambre était impeccable et parfaitement équipée et d’une propreté exemplaire.
L’hôtel est parfaitement situé (métro, tram, restaurants, …).

Un immense merci à toute l’équipe pour sa gentillesse et spécialement à Toprak pour son sens du service. Je recommande les yeux fermés. Une adresse à retenir absolument !

Pros:

Le personnel était sympathique et accueillant

Cons:

- Pas d’isolation dans les chambres (on étend facilement une discussion normale de l’autre chambre)
- Climatisation bruyante dans la chambre et empêche de dormir la nuit
- La propreté généralement était bien mais en regardant dans les détails, il y avait des cheveux sur le lit et l’oreiller
- L’emplacement est loin des sites touristiques. N’est pas du tout idéal pour les touristes car plein de commerçants grossistes à côté

Pros:

Bardzo miła i pomocna obsługa, pokoje w porządku, śniadanie smaczne, choć nie zawsze punktualne 🫣 Blisko na tramwaj, do sklepów, na Wielki Bazar. Do Hagia Sofia około 25 minut pieszo.
Polecam 👍

Cons:

Aby iść kierunku centrum, trzeba podejść pod górkę. Starsze osoby z mojej grupy miały problemy i z wejściem i z zejściem.

Pros:

Το ξενοδοχειο ειναι σε πολυ βολικη τοποθεσια. Γυρω απο το ξενοδοχειο εχει αρκετα μικρα καταστηματα καθως και οικονομικα κεπματζιδικα. Η περιοχη το βραδυ ειναι υσηχη. Το προγευμα του ηταν ικανοποιητικο. Το δωματιο μας το.οποιο ηταν budget room ηταν σχετικα μικρο αλλα καθαρο και το μπανιο ευρυχωρο. Το προσωπκκομηταν αρκετα εξυπηρετικο.

Cons:

Το μονο μειονεκτημα του ξενοδοχειου ειναι πρεπει να κατεβεις και α ανεβεις μιαν κατηφορα και ανηφορα καθε.φορα. που βγαινεις.απο το ξενοδοχειο

Pros:

skvělý personál, hotel sice není luxusní, ale i když je v prudkém kopci, je snadné dojít na metro tramvaj. Chodily jsme dost pěšky. snídaně velmi dobré, taxi od hotelu luxusní

Cons:

jsou slabe steny, ale měli jsme štěstí na slušné sousedy, tak nás nic nerušilo
