Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
The street noise in front of the hotel is excessive; frequent cars lay on their horns all night long. The hotel windows do very little to mitigate this. Almost no sleep was had for two nights. The mini fridge would not stay on and the TV had no signal. Plus, the heavy glass shower door is stuck on the concrete sill at the bottom and makes a terrible noise if moved. No showers were taken over two days. The good things that can be said: close to metro and Galata tower, friendly staff, nice breakfast room with decent breakfast.

They told us that the AC was not working because it is October. True it was in the 60’s outside but in the was very warm in the room. Opening the window was no help and it was very noisy outside.

This place was really loud at night. Also there are no screens so there were bugs biting us that were coming in the open window that is was the only ventilation because there was no AC. The location was very central and great for walking and wandering the tourist shops and restaurants.

Friendly Staff!

Check in was easy and the location is great! Shower door in our room didn’t really close and the first night the AC went out, however; that issues was quickly resolved. The breakfast was a pretty great way to start off day, which getting anywhere from here was very easy due to the close public transportation. I’d recommend the hotel if you don’t mind some minor issues.

The hotel is perfectly placed for all tourist attractions. Tha afternoon receptionist was just lazy and quite frankly shouldn't be in hospitality. The morning guy was very helpfully, polite and friendly. Overall great location and good price.

Amazing affordable hotel in the best area

Would definitely recommend this hotel if staying in Istanbul The value for money here is insane - for such an affordable hotel, the rooms were clean, modern, spacious, great mirrors & lighting, many plug sockets & storage options. Fresh water bottles are brought to your room everyday too Breakfast is included which was great The location was our favourite thing for sure though - just below the Galata Tower, the street has some beautiful buildings and cafes as you walk down. Just a stones throw is the beautiful main cobbled walkway down from the tower which has so many food options too The main road could be noisy but honestly once the windows were closed we had no trouble sleeping at all, the beds were so comfy which certainly helped too! Great hotel would 100% stay again
