A good option in this price range. Parking/driving is a challenge.
Pros:

The location. It's close to everything. For this price range, it is an excellent option. Rooms are small but clean, sufficiently modern, and well-equipped. Breakfast is very good,

Cons:

If you rent a car (as I did), keep in mind that paid parking (otopark) may be 500-700 m away. Walking with suitcases might be a little bit troublesome. And yes, driving there in downtown is a challenge.

Pros:

Завтраки. Приветливый и отзывчивый персонал

Cons:

Ванная комната требует обновления сантехники как минимум. Сам номер уже старенький, постоянно отваливалась ручка шкафа. Телевизор там для декораций, потому что ни в одном номере не работал

Hotel czysty, obsługa miła, blisko do atrakcji turystycznych. Dobry stosunek jakości do ceny.
Pros:

Hotel jest nieduży, kameralny. Pokój przestronny, łóżka wygodne, klimatyzacja. Śniadania dobre (z widokiem na morze). Jest nowoczesna winda. Blisko do najważniejszych zabytków. Do głównej ulicy w tym rejonie i tramwaju T1 jest piechotą ok. 15 min., kawałek pod górkę. Tuż obok jest linia tramwajowa T6 dojeżdżająca do metra. W okolicy jest zagłębie restauracji i mniejszych knajpek, ale hałasu z nich nie słychać. Gdybym miała znów pojechać do Stambułu nie wahałabym się wybrać ten hotel.

Cons:

Niestety czuje się trochę zapachów kuchennych nawet na 4 piętrze. Jednego dnia z powodu awarii nie było ciepłej wody, ale szybko włączyli.

Excellent value, clean, modern, friendly, convenient.
Pros:

This hotel is spotlessly clean, the staff are friendly and helpful, and the location is great. There are multiple cafes and restaurants nearby. It is a good location from which to see the main attractions of Istanbul, and convenient for the public transit system. The breakfast is very good. The staff arranged for me to be picked up at the airport, and also arranged taxis when I needed them. I would definitely stay at this hotel again if I return to Istanbul. I consider it to be an excellent value.

Goede prijskwaliteit, prima locatie en op 20 minuten lopen van Sulthanamet. Ik geef het een 7, maar met iets meer vriend
Pros:

Locatie in zeer toeristisch gedeelte (Kumkapi), veel restaurantjes, winkeltjes en “bedrijvigheid” op straat. Als je een rustige plek zoekt dan is dit geen geschikte plek.
Eenvoudige kamer maar wel met airco, koelkastje en waterkoker + thee / koffie 👍

Cons:

Jonge receptionist was vriendelijk maar oudere man zei niks. Ook viel er niet te praten over het feit dat ik alleen kwam ipv 2. Dus niet bijzonder flexibel of klantvriendelijk. Ontbijt was ok maar veel van hetzelfde. Geen yoghurt bijv. Of ander fruit dan watermeloen. Roerei, koffie en cake was top!

干净卫生早餐好，城铁两分钟内。
Pros:

酒店式的管理，很干净，每天都打扫整理房间，床品好，舒适，空调好，热水好，早餐好，每天基本一样的种类。供电系统好，遇到片区停电自动就转成发电了，一秒就恢复供电。楼下多家餐馆方便。交通要利用酒店2分钟内的最近的粉色线，可以联通到主要景点的其他线路。

Cons:

对连续多天住宿的人来说，早餐能变换种类更好。
