The kitchen where breakfast is prepaired is full of dirt, ingredients are kept on the floor, they use dirty knifes to cut !!!!!
Bottled water they put on table for breakfast , is on the floor, in boxes where you can see bugs!!!. .

Budget hotel close to Sutanahmet. We travelled to the hotel from the airport by metro and tram. This hotel was ideal being 5 min walk from the Cemberlitas tube station. Sultanahmet Square with it's Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia are 15 min walk away. There are many restaurants nearby making this a perfect location. The hotel itself is in a quiet road that is approached by quite a steep hill down from Cemberlitas. The rooms and complimentary breakfast are quite basic but for price and location this is an excellent choice. .

Nice comfortable stay. We, a family of four ( including kids aged 12 and 9) visited Istanbul between 11-14th april from London and we decided to stay at Dedem Boutique hotel through Booking.com.
The hotel is clean, got friendly staff and location is very good but services like variety in breakfast/ option for room service/ facility of tea coffee in room / 24hrs hot water - these are the few things can make this hotel a lot better.. .

Amazing price/quality rate...stay there, you will love it.. Dedem Boutique Hotel is such a great place to stay, staff is really helpful and kind. The rooms are spacious and clean, almost no noise.
The location is good too, you can reach blue mosque and Haya Sofia by walking 10 minutes. Connected by tram to the other side of Bosphorus and most of the main tourist attractions. Is surrounded by several stores and just around 5 minutes away from grand bazaar.
This is definitely a must, the staff helped me out with taxis, airport transfer and reservations for boat tour. Free coffee and tea at the reception and you can leave your luggage with them if you are coming back to the hotel after a few days.
Very recommended, I will go again and again!!!
Cheers!!!. .

Appalling:(. We stayed here for a week in 301 for one week in September.
Breakfast area was very dated, not much of a view, damp patches on ceiling, dirty table covers. The Breakfast was very very basic & consisted of hard bread; very dry pink watermelon, (sometimes hard boiled eggs) tomatoes cucumbers 2 types of cheese; salami, selection of jams, juice; machine coffee, turkish coffee olives & 2 types of cereal. The cleanliness was a lot to be desired of, & none of the food was covered either which put me off.
Our room was a quad room, wardrobe, mirrors & window overlooking some sort of metalwork establishment (there were men using soldering equipment opposite) we had an old unit air con in the room; but after 2 days i ended up with a sore throat; & severe cough & i wasnt sure if it was dust/germs blowing out of the air con? & opening the window resulted in the poluted air making me cough badly & both of us eventually ended up with a really bad chest & i unable to sleep. It was 2 warm not 2 have any air in the room & i ended up being bitten by mosquitoes. In the end i decided 2 leave early & book anotha room as i was exhausted with not sleeping & being bitten.
I spoke 2 our receptionist Yohan about my concerns who was really really nice about it & he did offer to look in the room etc 2 see if he could sort something; but i told him i couldnt stay anotha day.
Bathroom - seriously needs redoing. There was sealant evident everywhere that was loose; & a black/brown colour. The toilet sealant was so disgusting, when you sat on the loo you could feel it move & im hardly obese! There was a funny damp smell in there too!
Cleaning - sheets were supposedly meant to be changed every 2 days, however i noticed this didnt happen & even resorted to stripping the bed myself & left a note when i came out in red lumps. I also found a few dead mosquitoes behind 1 of the beds. The miniature shower gels etc were topped up for 2 days but not after that.
This hotel is in a great location close to the blue mosque; ayah sophia, bazaars & lots of decent eateries. There is wifi on every floor a shame this hotel wasnt upto the standard i expected. I took ages booking a hotel 4 my trip & i neva read any bad reviews prior to my stay which is why i had booked it & its dissapointing 2 be writing this.
There were only few channels working on the tv too.
Little touches would make this place great, fruits & yoghurts etc are inexpensive & would have been great 4 breakfast, i only went 2 times & literally had a coffee which wasnt great either. New bedding; towels are also needed in this hotel.
Yohan & Erdan (receptionists) were really helpful & courteous during our visit.
I personally wouldnt stay here again as i ended up with a severe chest infection & on antibiotics & what was meant to be a relaxing holiday made me ill.
Please be wary if you have young kids or travelling with elderly, i did mention to Yorhan that the room needed looking in2, as there was obviously a harmful pollution issue going on. The walls are paper thin & i did hear the lady next door coughing violently2 one night.. .

Avoid avoid. Have stayed at many hotels in Istanbul in my last few years. This has been the worst one. Though it is cheap and very close to all historic places but staying here is more of a health and safety issue. Wires hanging from the walls, toilet and basin sink is moving, water dripping from the sink pipes, wall papers are pealing off and dirty bed sheets
Outside street is very noisy and even inside the hotel can hear everything which is going on outside the room.
Better to spend few extra quids and be safe specially with the kids its a big no no. .
