Für jemanden der gut und günstig wohnen möchte ideal. Preis - Leistung 100 % Alles in die Jahre gekommen, aber O.K. Sehr zentral, wir waren nur zu Fuß unterwegs. Jede Menge Geschäfte in der Nähe und auch Sehenswürdigkeiten. Alle sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Wenn wir wieder nach Istanbul reisen, dann werden wir wieder dort übernachten.

At first, when we arrived at the hotel, we thought it might not be a good place. However, after speaking with the reception staff, they were extremely helpful and provided us with a very nice room. Their kindness and professionalism made it a truly positive experience.

The door only locks if you remove your hotel key from the slot. This means your lights, chargers, AC - all electricity must be off if you want to sleep with a locked door. This is ridiculous. They don't even have proper manners or even a bottle of water on them.

Terrible motel like hotel. Do not go if you are expecting a smoke fee room. It smells like a dirty old motel. And the hallways and stairs are extremely dangerous- no light until you are half way down the dangerous no railed twirled stairs
