Staying at this hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The room I had faced the main road, making it very noisy at night, but it was very clean, and breakfast, although okay, could have provided more options for diabetic guests. The neighborhood street was nice to look at from the other side, even though the economy room I stayed in was understandably small.

The room faced the main road, resulting in significant noise at night. However, it was exceptionally clean, and the breakfast, although could be more accommodating for diabetic guests, was satisfactory. It overlooked a pleasant neighborhood street, typical of the economy room I occupied.

The location was good, being near historical places and very close to Sultanahmet square, making it convenient for exploring.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were clean and comfortable, offering nice views of Sultanahmet, but there were some issues with cleanliness and hot water availability. The staff was friendly and warm, providing good service throughout my stay. The location was excellent, putting me within walking distance of major attractions like the Blue Mosque, although the Wi-Fi was not suitable for much more than sending text messages.

My stay at the hotel was wonderful! The rooms were tidy and suited our needs perfectly. The staff was very friendly and helpful, making our experience even better. Although our room was small as expected for the economy category, it was clean and nicely furnished. The service was top-notch with wonderfully friendly and generous hosts who went the extra mile to ensure our comfort. The location was perfect for me, surrounded by stores, restaurants, bars, and close to all the old monuments. The dining experience was very good, especially with the amazing view it offered. Overall, great value for money and a truly enjoyable stay.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were quite adequate with a minibar and TV, but there were some cleanliness issues with blood stains on the bed covers and a very hard bed. The location was excellent, near top attractions in Istanbul, but the dining experience was below expectations. The service, however, deserves all praises for being nice, professional, and helpful.
