Staff was very welcoming and nice. My room said city view but i didn’t get a city view. Water from the faucets came out brown and dirty for the first day. Breakfast was ok and room was clean.
We had a great stay here, the staff were very helpful and professional. The hotel itself was situated near a train station and had an ocean view during breakfast (which was also delicious!). We stayed for 8 nights and would highly recommend here!

Rooms are clean and clean regularly, but the tap water is dirty and the water pressure in the shower was poor. Also the breakfast meanus are very minimal. Hotel staffs are friendly and fantastic spot to commute and lots of restaurants close by.

We stayed in the triple room.
The room is clean and cozy, but the sink need to be repair since its working as it should ( the water get stuck in the sink). Near to restaurants and Fateh, Grand bazaar area.

Pros: staff were helpful, most hotel places were clean. Breakfast just was ok.
Cons: Annoying noise was generated by bathroom fan while turning on the light. No enough outlet in convenient area for electric kettle. So, I had to use bathroom outlet. Bed was not even and comfortable. So that, the head side was lower than feet side and used to make backache. Safe box had problem to opening/locking. Therefore, I called receptionist to come for fixing two times. This hotel was a pricey hotel in the area.
Great area amongst dining and shops. Walkable to Grand Bazaar and Hagia Sofia. Breakfast good. Staff helpful. If you are coming from the airport use the hotel to organise a shuttle as taxi drivers can be a bit hesitant when they get to the narrow streets. Don’t want to be walking and dragging luggage.
A major plus is a train station one minute walk from the hotel where a train can take you in one stop to the main touristic attractions and in two to the main rail station.
Really loved my stay at this charming hotel stayed for 4 nights, I felt very welcomed and the room was very practical, great staff and great breakfast for the price of the stay 10/10
