. It is centrally located which is great, two blocks from blue mosque, Hagia Sofia and basilica cisterns. Lots of restaurants. Simple no frills but good place to stay. Staff were great. Right next to tram line which is convenient but sometimes noisy. Highly recommend and reasonable prices.. .

birds eye view of Istanbul. The location was fantastic with travel links on the doorstep, the information was very informative and the receptionist :Sheila : was fantastic nothing too much trouble. Breakfast was very good ,looking out onto the rooftops of Istanbul ,breathtaking. the hotel was very basic ,with no shelves ,it could be improved with shelving,and more storage . The room was clean and tidy, but could be improved with better air conditioning. The ladies who looked after the kitchen and the cleaning worked very hard , its a big old fashioned hotel with a sprawling staircase and no lift, not for disabled persons. after the initial shock it was a very good stay. Iwould stay here again now i know what to expect .. .

Transit trip via Istanbul!. Nice multistoried reasonably clean place at a very affordable price. The view from the rooftop restaurant is to die for… just the perfect view of Istanbul landmarks…. Sitting and sipping coffee is an experience to add to one’s travel memories! Perfect place for a low budget holiday in Istanbul!. .

. Described as a budget hotel but really basic On- suite very small Water leak on second day caused wet carpet and led to a change of room which was better but only had a window looking out onto a fire escape Staff did their best in difficult circumstances. .

. The location is terrific, less than 5 minute walk to the Hippodrome. The staff were all vey helpful especially the day manager who gave us plenty of helpful info. However, the tram goes right by the hotel so it was a little nosier than expected. And the beds were hard and the linens were not great. . .

Not a good first impression. The first impression of my room was not good. It was tiny and only really had room for one despite being sold as a double room. Dismayed find broken furniture and very limited storage and certainly not enough for two. However I managed to make it work. The hotel has no real public areas and there is a small area on the roof where breakfast is served. This is a typical Turkish buffet with a daily egg dish which is prepared to order. Rooms are serviced daily including fresh towels. The bathroom is a bit of a tight cubbyhole that includes the sink and toilet but not separate shower. There is good air conditioning which is just as well as the maid tends to leave the window open but you have to close it to shut out the noise from the tramway outside. Sleep quality is good. The hotel in general could do with a general cosmetic update. Furniture looks tired and some areas could do with a fresh lick of paint. Some fittings are a little on the loose side. There is no lift and no space to install one so you have to lug luggage up a fairly steep staircase to reach upper floors. Location wise it is next to Sultanhemet Square with many key sites on its doorstep. The restaurants surrounding it are best avoided as their menu prices match that in Western Europe with mediocre food which is not authentic. Follow the tramline to Constantine's column and the watch the prices drop to the local average.. .
