For the price we paid it was worth it. The property was very small in general. We stayed there in January the weather was very cold. So it was nice to come back to a clean warm rooms with plenty of hot water to shower with. The small breakfast buffet was enough for me. The only complaint I had was I wished they had filter coffee and not nasty Nescafé.

Great location but very shabby place sheets had stains and other hairs on. The towels were torn and had ink marks. Felt generally a little grimy. Nothing like the picture. The room was in the basement where there is a strong smell of disinfectant. Very overpowering. Staff were friendly enough. Breakfast was ok with a small selection of bread meat and eggs but had a great view of the city.

The aircon did not work on the first night we stayed, and the shower rose was broken. We reported it the next morning, and found both had beem fixed when we returned thr next evening - thanks yo the staff for their prompt attention. Only other problem we encountered was the dirty drinking glass in the bathroom.

Perfect budget hotel in the heart of Istanbul

A very nice budget hotel. Very few English channels but you are barely indoors as all the attractions are within walking distance. We stayed in the newly renovated room and they upgraded us without asking and we were more than pleased.

Very bad experience

The hotel does not have an elevator only steep spiral stair case, so if a traveler has heavy suitcases to carry, you will end up carrying them yourself, The staff will not help. The room we stayed in was dirty and had mosquito's that bit up my wife an I leaving many bumps. The cleaning lady is also the person who prepares the breakfast and I noticed she wiped several areas with a rag, pick-up trash, and took out the trashcan and after this handled the breakfast bread without washing her hands, she is also the one who cleans the rooms. The pictures on the website show clean and good rooms however when one steps into the rooms, it is not what is shown. I had booked three nights and I only stayed the first night, I took a loss, this is how bad I rate this hotel.

Disappointing & Uncomfortable Stay

I saw this hotel on ebookers when I was planning a trip for me & my wife, the pictures looked amazing and the reviews were average. On arrival I was extremely disappointed, upon booking I booked a double luxury room and paid €3 extra per night and mentioned that me and my wife will be staying but my wife will arrive later from another country. This hotel is situated in downtown Istanbul and build on 4 floors with no lift, the hotel is old and you can tell that no money has been spent on the wear and tear for a long time. On arrival my room weren’t ready but the receptionist a short guy whom spoke 3 languages was very pleasant and offered me another room on the second floor. There were two flight of stairs with metal railing on one side which I had to climb by holding on to the railing as there are sharp turnings on the stairs, Not reached the second floor I cut the palm of my hand on the sharp welded metal railing with blood pouring from my hand I arrived on 2nd floor. Opening the rooms door I was well disappointed, it looked nothing like the hotel advertised photos. The room was cold and over looked run down buildings which were being used as storage. I checked if the heating works but the radiator was switched off and no remote control for the air conditioning system. There was no tea or coffee facilities in the room and about 2 inches of dust on the tv installed on the wall. Turned on the lights and only one bulb out of three working. Shame I can complete my review due

More like a hostel than hotel

No toiletries provided. Toilet flush broken. Shower room wasn’t the best...floor leaked. Terrible breakfast served. No working WiFi unless you go to the lounge area. Bedsheets were not changed a single time we were there. Stained mattresses ! Hotel is located in a good place however it’s up on a very steep hill. Taxis don’t like to go there and walking was a workout everyday! Staff are nice and spoke English. Cheap but most definitely not cheerful.

Very close to Sultanahmet mosque and egyptian baza

Good location but a bit tiring on foot due to steep roads nevertheless a good workout after that fatty Döner, great breakfast, condition of the rooms is pleasant, cleanliness is excellent and hotel staff is helpful, hospitable, friendly and kind. I'd suggest inclusion of hot drinking water for making tea and coffee in the rooms which I and my dear wife missed so much. Will stay there next year too only if we can get this fixed and get the same or better prices. PS: We stayed there for 15 nights. PPS: sorry for bad English

Cheap and good location

The only good thing about this hotel is that it is close to the metro station and a 5-10 minute walk from the main touristic attractions. Otherwise, I wouldn't recommend.
