Istanbul stay

Our stay was good; the room was clean, as was the rest of the hotel. We stored our luggage for the day so we could take a tour before boarding the ship. It seemed to be a pretty quiet day.

Excellent petit hôtel idéalement situé. Personnel vraiment accueillant et aimable. Seul bémol, prévoir les boules quies car l'isolation phonique avec la rue laisse à désirer.
