Facilities don't match the price of the rooms.
Pros:

Staff was helpful to solve the issues with our room. Nice view to the river.

Cons:

We booked a room with garden view, and got a basement room with view to a wall. We were told there were no more rooms available unless we paid extra, but then they had to move us because there was a terrible smell inside our room (to a similar room, that after all was available). The hotel is very overpriced for its facilities and location.

Pros:

The location and the view was superb.

Cons:

When we entered the room, the sink and the bathtub were not clean. And unfortunately, even though we selected the do not disturb option from the panel and then left with the key card, we realized that there was an attempt to clean the room, so don't forget to ask for a back up electronics card.

A location that could easily get 5/5 but due to some minor lazyness turns to be a 4/5
Pros:

the location is ideal, it provides a completely different picture of istanbul. having the ocean in front of the door was stunning beautiful. The room was beautiful decorated

Cons:

little things could have changed a lot. 2 days our room was not cleaned, even we left the room sometimes for 8h. By this fresh water was not provided. when we mentioned this at the reception cleaning staff came, but it's not what u expect from such a nice hotel. The breakfast room in the cellar was a classical 18°C room where u should wear long stuff on 36° summer days. when me as a men, used to cold winters, freezes at breakfast, it feels a bit weird. The technical panels to connect HDMI was a great idea, sadly it was broken and couldn't be used
