Guest Ratings & Reviews
My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms were cleaned daily, but they were very small with barely enough space to move around, and my particular room was located in the basement across a noisy storage closet which disrupted my sleep. The staff, especially Mohamed and Bahaeddine, were extremely friendly and cooperative, even offering a complimentary upgrade when budget rooms were full. The location was excellent, within walking distance of major tourist spots like the Blue Mosque and Aya Sophia. Although the dining options were varied, they felt a bit repetitive after several days.
The hotel offers a comfortable and clean stay with a fully equipped kitchen for solo travelers. The service is very friendly and accommodating, making it an affordable and pleasant place. The location is superb for sightseeing with stunning views of the Bosphorus and the Blue Mosque. The dining options are adequate with a nice taste. The facilities meet basic needs and are satisfactory for a moderate price.
The hotel's location is excellent, overlooking the Marmara Sea and within walking distance to the Blue Mosque, providing a traditional and enjoyable stay. The rooms, while small, were clean and resembled the pictures on the website. The service was friendly and accommodating, with only a minor issue regarding a Turkish Hamam booking. The dining experience was diverse and satisfying, catering well to vegetarians. Overall, a great value for money with a fantastic view and helpful staff.
