I am writing a review with pleasure. I feel free to give a 5 rating for the excellent location. For tourist purposes, it couldn't be better. One of the many budget hotels in the heart of the historic center. In a few minutes there is a bazaar, a tram, a shoe paradise (wholesale shoe stores - it happened by chance), a pharmacy, a supermarket and well, where to eat. The rooms may be tired, but the plumbing is working, the elevator is working, the breakfast (buffet) is good with a view of the Marmara Sea, the hotel owner speaks Russian (not everywhere like this). Famous mosques are a 10-minute walk away. Not far from the departure point of the excursion boats (ferries). I booked on Yandex Travel.
The hotel is excellent, very beautiful. The breakfast is gorgeous (Swedish line) very tasty. Cleaning every day with a change of towels. The location of the hotel is within walking distance of all attractions: Grand Bazaar, Cysteine Basilica, Theodosius Cistern, Hagia Sophia, Blue Mosque and Topkapi Palace. You can walk to the Galician Tower, you can walk to the Galician Bridge and walk to the Maiden Tower...
