Our stay was quite enjoyable overall, with the hotel's location being a major highlight as we were just minutes away from top attractions like the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia. The staff was welcoming, especially Kerem, who made us feel at home, but we did have some unpleasant encounters with another staff member. Though the rooms were clean and comfortable, street noise was an issue, making sleep challenging at times. The breakfast left much to be desired with limited options and quality.

The hotel is centrally located, making it easy to explore Istanbul's main attractions. The rooms are generally clean and comfortable, though some may find them a bit small. The breakfast could definitely use some improvement in terms of variety. While the staff are mostly friendly and helpful, my overall experience was marred by noticeable cleanliness issues, particularly concerning bed bugs during my stay.

Our stay at the hotel was quite pleasant, particularly due to its excellent location, which allowed us easy access to major attractions. The rooms were a bit small but clean and comfortable. The service varied, with one staff member being quite rude, while another shone with kindness and hospitality. The breakfast left a lot to be desired, lacking variety and quality, but overall, it provided good value for money given the central location.
