Good location, walking distance to many landmarks. Modern, new hotel/facilities. Great corner room. Tasty, fresh breakfast. Friendly staff. Comfortable and welcoming! The only con was the corner street garbage disposal (very displeasing look and noisy garbage pickup truck at night).

A real Gem of a hotel. Walking distance to all the major attractions and the tramline. The staff is amazing and very friendly. The included breakfast is superb, be sure to ask for their Turkish coffee. Rooms are super clean and bottled water is provided. The preselected tours they provide at reception are discounted and won’t disappoint! Highly recommend their Bosphorus night dinner boat cruise and a day at the beach on the Black Sea. Special thanks to Shidokht at reception for making the stay amazing! Thanks and keep up the fine work!

The hotel was very welcoming. Modern facilities, including air conditioning. The staff was very helpful. Breakfast was very good and included in price. We had a corner room on 5th floor for 5 nights. It had two small balconies, one with a small table and two chairs, which was nice. It is on a small street that is a hill. There is a supermarket as well as a convenience close by. Walkable to many of the major sites. I would stay there again.

As it is still being remodeled notice the lobby doesn’t have area to chat or just chill. The entrance is on an incline caution when rains

The manager and staff are wonderful, the room was comfortable with a balcony on the 5th floor. The breakfast variety was good. The only downside is the location. While it is a short walk to the tram, the streets are EXTREMELY steep and difficult for this old lady in both directions! While there were nice restaurants within a couple of blocks in one direction, it is surrounded by warehouses and manufacturing businesses and during the day the very narrow streets are filled with trucks and motorcycles and the narrow sidewalks are crowded with boxes and workers. But if I were younger, I would certainly return!
