I had a mixed experience at this hotel. While the location was fantastic, close to all the major attractions, the room was quite small and not very comfortable. The service was nice; the staff was friendly and accommodating. Dining was disappointing with limited options. Overall, I appreciated the value for money and the great location, but the room size and dining quality left a bit to be desired.

The hotel has an excellent location, just a ten-minute walk from major attractions in Istanbul, which I really appreciated. The rooms, while offering a lovely view of the sea, were a bit small and old, lacking cleanliness and storage space. The staff were friendly and helpful, making the service a plus. However, the overall experience was slightly marred by the dated facilities.

My stay at the hotel was quite enjoyable overall. The location was fantastic, being just a short walk to all the main attractions in Istanbul, and I loved the breakfast spread. However, I did encounter some issues with the room's lock, which was quite inconvenient since there was no lift to my floor. But the staff were exceptionally helpful throughout my stay.
