Great neighborhood, clean and neat, the staff are kind and helpful. However the room was much smaller than advertised and the room that we got was not like the pictures on the site. On the site I booked 210 square feet room but it was almost 100 square feet room. There are two Grand Unal hotels side by side; 8 and 7 stories. We were admitted to the 8 story hotel and I think the room pictures are related to the 7 story hotel.

No spa, no manners,no way

This hotel markets itself as having a spa with sauna and Turkish bath. Not true. During our two days first it was closed because it was Monday, then just because... only the cold and miniscule pool was open. When i raised this with the manager he repeatedly called me a bad person and said that because I am so rich (??) I should not complain. The rooms are stuffy, with wall-to-wall carpets that have not been cleaned for ages and the check-in confusing with us being herded back and forth between their different buildings. The location is great but there are many hotels in the area where you get what is marketed and won't be called names.

We have stayed at this hotel several times through booking. We haven't had any problems. The last time I was in Istanbul, I needed an extra night and decided to go straight to the reception in the morning. both receptions were middle aged men and not friendly. They asked us for more money than usual. One gentleman didn't even bother to look that I was handing him the money and continued looking at his phone. Then I booked in hotels.com. The other receptionis - was elderly made gentleman us wait after 2pm. even though the hotel was half empty. He didn't stop talking on the phone and dropped us the room keys. The bathroom was not cleaned well. II've been visiting Istanbul for 30 years, but I've never been treated like this by the staff

Je demande un lit double on me donne 2 lits simples ! Un des réceptionnistes est horrible, ne répond pas au bonjour, ne daigne meme pas vous regarder, tire la tronche a chaque fois ! Le menage loool la femme de ménage fait juste le lit et encore meme la cest pas top ! Isolation deguelasse ! On entend tout de chez le voisin meme quand il branche son chargeur ! Dernier jour a 3h du mat une famille qui est rentré du reveillon qui a fait un carnage et m'a réveiller quand jai taper sur le mur ils ont retapé plus fort en rigolant ! Ils mont mis au 6eme etage, au dessus cest le dernier etage des cuisines petir dejeuner a 7h on entend les tables et les chaises qui frottent le sol des 6h30, obliger de m'endormir avec mes écouteurs pour ne pas être réveillé ! Les mouettes qui clc de bon matin aussi ! Meme pas de terrasse pour profiter ! Ah Horrible Horrible le pire séjour de ma vie !
