Initially at our arrival, the rooms offered were in a 4th floor with no elevators, the escalators were very uncomfortable. Then we were moved to a room on a 3rd floor that was awful too. Finally, the offered us a room on a 2nd floor in a terrible conditions and they charged us $100.00 extra

This is a small hotel (probably a converted family home), that is a little run down. That being said is that its location is fantastic. It is literally 1 5 minute walk from the entrance to Hagia Sofia. The staff is also very friendly. So if you are looking for a reasonably priced place to lay your head, it is ideal, if you are looking for a hotel to hang out in, then maybe this isn't the best place

Don't stay here
Stayed earlier this year. Gave us the incorrect room, it was the loft which neither of us (both fairly short) couldn't even stand in. Bathroom flooded. Bed was most uncomfortable in a 7 month trip. Very loud noise of construction all night. Management didn't care until we told them we were reporting them then moved us to a room right by reception. Next morning told we had to move again. Other rooms were slightly better, we could at least stand up. Breakfast was down the road and inedible. Worst hotel ever

I'd give it a perfect score but I don't believe anything is perfect perfect. What makes this place great is the attention of the front desk. They were very nice and told us everything we needed for a great stay. Shuttle arranged, restaurant was amazing.. etc.

Very bad and it ruined my holiday. A disaster
Very bad. Small rooms. Dirty broken smelly furniture and dirty sheets and pillow cases. Kitchen without cooker or microwave or a kettle even no spoons or knifes or forkes. Poor breakfast with flys on food. No air condition in dinning room very worm and uncomfotable. Dinning tables and chairs not suitable for adults but for kids. No botles of water supply as promised. The entrance to the apartment is very dirty and lots of people work in front of the entrance with boxes of corns at the entrance make you feels very uncomfortable. Internet is very poor and disconnected most of the time with no connection in the abatement. Air conditions autmatically go off around 5 am and you wake up sweating key of rooms were not available twice and I have to wait for my keys and staff brings them from outside the hotel?!!!!!. Occasionaly breakfast run out before time one day I asked for bread and the girl in the kitchen said bread has finished and it was 10 am (breakfast finishes at 10:30) breakfast start late 08:30 which very unsuitable. Also no enough cutlery in dinning room no enough cups and in several occasions I brought my spoons with me for breakfast. This hotel is a disaster by all means and I will not recommend it for any body even for free.

Perfect Location
I choose this hotel because of his perfect location, in the old part of Istanbul, near to sultan Ahmed and topkapi palace, i liked the fact that it`s 5min walking from the tram stop,and the area was safe, with plenty of tourists.

Dishonest staff, incorrect information.
We booked a 2 bedroom apartment, with space for up to 8 people. We were a family of 5 looking forward to spending time together. When we got there they gave us 2 rooms, one for 3 people, one for 2 people. One of the rooms had a cot that barely fit in the room. The floors were not cleaned, and teh windows were a huge danger. When we discussed with the manager he simply said that the apartment wasn't ready, so this was the better option. We also were told we would be able to have an early breakfast since 2 of us had to leave before the breakfast start time. When we arrived, the man said he didn't know about it, and nothing was ready. When he finally started to get food out, he said "I'm a man, only the woman can make breakfast", which upset my wife immensely. He also then went on a 15 minute rant about the other staff and how poorly run the hotel was. Not a good sign. Do not stay here, there are hundreds of better options.

Superb location for seeing the sights
Perfectly placed for easy walking access to Agia Sofia, Blue Mosque, Topkapi Palace and Basilica Cistern. Also to the terminus for the hop-on hop-off bus. There are plenty of restaurants nearby, including at least a couple of roof-top ones with great views. The Grand Bazaar is only a 15-minute walk. The facilities are basic but our rooms were clean and comfortable, and the en-suite freshly decorated. The staff were welcoming and friendly. The breakfast was not fancy, but generous. Overall the hotel was great value for money and I would go there again.

Cosy and Comfy in a great location
The hotel was a lovely quirky old building, the service was excellent, lovely breakfast, the staff were friendly and helpful. The views weren't great and the rooms were small, but our visit was about seeing the sights of Istanbul not staying in our rooms. The location of the hotel was ideal as it was close enough to walk to most of the points of interest and for the others the tram was just around the corner. I would recommend this hotel and I would stay there again.
