Thing I liked:
1) The staff is the most valuable thing this hotel has.
2) The location to me was great but some taxies refuse to drive you back there because of the traffic so they will ask for extra money well usually most taxi drivers will ask for extra
3) Places very close to the hotel location: there are many coffee shops, supermarkets, pharmacies, restaurants and parks all around the place 3-7 min. Walk and the bosphorus is 7-10 min. Away also on foot.
the only two things I didn’t like are:
A. I really missed the microwave for fast heating
B. Some hotel guests were complaining about the cold so they changed the whole hotel AC system into heat (even if you have it on cold) which made me sweat all the time and I couldn’t sleep well in the last 4-5 nights plus the heat gave me headache and lack of sleep, my wife also told me that she felt the heat too although she feel cold easily.
The response of the staff was quick and very friendly but unfortunately they couldn’t help me on that, they suggested for me to open the windows but if i did there will be no privacy at all, the same scenario will happen if I close the curtains it will block the wind. On the other hand the number of guests wanted the heat cannot be ignored so I lived with the heat until the last (4-5) nights until my check-out.
This is how I see about the hotel and I really appreciate the hotel staff all of them were amazing, cooperative and, friendly never felt unsafe with my two years old daughter running
