An inexpensive but wonderful hotel. It is located in the best location of the historical center. The view from the room was on the Bosphorus and the Topkapi wall, which is five meters from the hotel. Entrance to the topcaps, climb up a little -two to three minutes. There is also Ay Sofia, a square, a fountain, trams, a bus Top on top hof. Next to the hotel there is a street with all kinds of restaurants. The hotel's restaurant is on the roof, the restaurant offers a beautiful view of the Bosphorus. The breakfasts were not very pleasant, there was not much food, but the main thing is: tomatoes, cucumbers, lettuce, cheese, eggs, omelette, sausages, pancakes, coffee. The rooms are small but cozy, with a French balcony. The room has a safe, kettle, TV, toiletries. For our purposes, exploring the historical center and sightseeing is the best option.

Good location and helpful staff, reasonable breakfasts. That's where the advantages end. When booking, be sure to ask not to settle on the lower floor, rooms 101 and 102. There, half of the window is covered by a wall, because the floor is practically underground. Carbon dioxide accumulates and a headache in the morning. There was no hot water a couple of times. The rooms are small. At least the ones we lived in. On the 1st and 5th floor. There is an iron and ironing board, but you need to ask for them every time. Towels, soap and soap accessories - everything is there, but there are no bathrobes, take this into account. In general, it is acceptable if you do not live on the 1st floor
