Pros:

Posizione della struttura a pochi passi da Santa Sofia
Arredamento tipico di una casa turca degli anni 60/70 davvero particolare
Camere nn grandissime ma funzionali
Doccia grande, non scontata
Colazione sia dolce che salata in terrazza panoramica

Cons:

L’unica cosa che davvero mi ha dato da fare erano le due signore che si occupano delle pulizie che, durante la colazione, appoggiano abiti e scarpe alla rinfusa nei divanetti e attendono la fine del servizio fumando ad uno dei tavoli esterni. Ci è capitato di fare colazione in tavoli separati e l’odore del fumo anche no.

Bardzo dobry Hotel
Pros:

Hotel znajduje się w spokojnej okolicy, a jednocześnie bardzo blisko najważniejszych atrakcji Stambułu. Bardzo uprzejmy i pomocny personel. Śniadanie serwowane jest na tarasie, z którego roztacza się wspaniały widok na Morze Marmara. Nasz pokój był czysty i miał wygodne łóżko. Ogromne podziękowania dla personelu hotelu, który był niezwykle gościnny, a szczególnie za to że bez problemu mogliśmy zostawić bagaże przed zameldowaniem jak i po wymeldowaniu, Jeżeli będziemy jeszcze w Stambule, na pewno wrócimy następnym razem! Polecamy ten Hotel z całego serca!!

Cons:

Wszystko nam się podobało i nie ma na co narzekać.

Pros:

Locatie este apropiata de obiectivele principale din Istanbul. Este langa sectia de Politie, deci o zona sigura, 4 locuri de parcare gratuita in fata cazarii. O terasa frumoasa cu vedere catre mare. Personalul foarte atent si dispus sa ajute. Problema cu frigiderul din camera s-a rezolvat folosind un alt frigider de pe terasa. Am putut parca masina inainte de ora de check-in si dupa ora de check-out astfel incat sa poti vizita cat mai multe. Micul dejun pentru toate gusturile cu accente vegetariene/vegane.

Cons:

In camera 16, unde am stat, frigiderul nu functiona, TV-ul se deschidea singur in timpul noptii. Baia avea un miros uneori deranjant la pornirea ventilatiei -> necesita aerisire naturala. Cu masina e cam greu sa iesi la plimbare in zona, strazile sunt inguste si traficul intens.

Hôtel très agréable dans une rue très calme.
Pros:

Petit-déjeuner copieux, très agréable en terrasse.

Cons:

Nous aurions apprécié une bouilloire, le matériel de la salle commune n'étant utilisé que pour le petit-déjeuner.
