A cozy hotel ın the center of Istanbul. Nıce stuff, speak Russian. One of receptıonıst even helped us wıth leading us to tram statıon. WI fı ıs fast, defınately recommend you to stay
Positive:
- convenient location, there are many attractions within walking distance of the hotel:
- Russian-speaking staff;
- the hotel has Wi-Fi with good internet speed;
- breakfast is served according to the buffet system (although the range of food there is quite meager, and the food itself is not very tasty, but in general it will do for breakfast);
- we got a large enough room with a balcony, it had everything we needed for a comfortable stay (air conditioning, hairdryer, TV, safe).
Minuses:
- if you look into the details, you can notice a lot of flaws in the room (worn walls and ceiling, broken top bar above the front door and a bunch of other small joints);
- of the two outlets in the room, one did not work;
- the toilet seat mount was broken:
- there are no blankets or any warm capes in the hotel, they offer to hide only with ordinary duvet covers.
Bottom line: in general, this hotel is quite suitable for the first visit to Istanbul in the warmer months. But you should not expect any great level of service and maintenance from him
The hotel is not new, very compact. Good breakfasts, they are modest, but everything is delicious. The hotel has 4 floors, there is an elevator. The standard rooms are very small, there is a passage of 30-40 cm between the beds, soap, gel and shampoo are put on for three days, because cleaning is carried out every three days. There are rooms where the window looks into the wall of the neighboring building.
I advise you to take a room with a balcony on the upper floors.
There is a Russian-speaking girl at the reception, very responsive, our heating did not work and we were moved to a nice room on the 4th floor with a balcony.
The hotel has a great location: many historical sites are within walking distance, a 15-minute walk to the tram stop, 10 minutes to the embankment, shops and cafes right under the window
I recommend it to non-demanding tourists who come to the room only to spend the night
