Good location. Affordable. Good breakfast. Clean. Safe was not working, power shower was disabled

The location is fabulous.

Excellent location and attentive and helpful staff. The room and building were very clean.

Staff was very kind to give the room for my daughter who arrived 6hours earlier than me. It was also good to have access to the Tram as well as the nearby place to see. I will go to this hotel again!

The best thing about this hotel is by far the location. All the main attractions (mosques, Topkapi etc) are within walking distance (~15 mins) and there's a tram stop around the corner for further ventures (e.g. Kadakoy, Galata etc) The hotel itself however is not a 4* as advertised. It's very basic. I visited with 8 other guests and we were all of the same opinion. It definitely has everything you need to get by, but is not particularly comfortable. The breakfast has more Turkish options than continental (think salads/cheeses) but again has just enough choice for a decent eat - e.g. there isn't an omelette station but boiled and scrambled eggs are available. The rooms were clean and any time housekeeping was requested, it was prompt. The staff were on the whole really friendly - we did however have 1 quite pushy front desk person who repeatedly tried to sell us a boat tour (completely fine for this to happen once on arrival as information but it started to become uncomfortable as it was constant everytime i walked through the lobby after I had explained we had a booking we were already happy with). Across the 9 of us there were varied opinions on the comfort of the beds. In summary, we wouldn't be likely to stay again - however in all fairness, Istanbul is an older city so the options in such a convenient location would be limited, especially for so many people travelling together.
