Sehr nettes, zuvorkommendes und herzliches Personal. Die Lage des Hotels ist sehr Zentral und liegt direkt 3 min laufen zu Sultan Ahmet Moschee und zu Tram. Es ist sehr schön und ruhig gelegen. Das Bett ist sehr gemütlich ( Zimmer mit 2X Doppelbett). Das Zimmer würde täglich gesäubert und es gab jeden Tag frische Handtücher.

Highly recommend!

Pleasantly surprised with our lovely room. Fantastic views from our fourth floor room. Very comfortable bed! Perfect location for exploring the Blue Mosque, Hangia Sofia etc. Only thing to note is that the stairwell echoes quite a lot so it's very audible when other guests arrives late at night. But overall extremely pleased with our stay here. Would absolutely recommend!
