I was pleasantly surprised by this budget-friendly hotel in Istanbul. The staff was incredibly welcoming and helpful, even arranging a seamless airport drop-off. The room was no-frills but impeccably clean and had all the basic amenities, including A/C. The location is perfect—it's centrally located and within easy walking distance to major attractions, restaurants, and shopping in a safe area.

This is the second time I've stayed here and i specifically chose this hotel because of the service, convenience, staff and area. The ocean is within walking distance but, while i did take some walks along the ocean front last time, i decided to explore other areas thia time. I can't say enough about the staff! Every single member treats you like a friend or family member. For me, 5 stars is not enough. Plus, it's in walking distance of the major sites.

This small hotel is in a good location, shops and attractions e.g. Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia were short walk away. Bus stops are also close by. Tram stop was about 10mins walk away Please note Breakfast was not served in the hotel, it was in a nearby hotel which was not very convenient. If you don't mind this it's not a bad option. I wish they were more upfront about this as I only found out after booking. Staff was nice and helpful. Our family room was cleaned daily only on request. Bathroom had shower gel, shampoo and soap for handwash provided. A kettle and Undercounter fridge was also provided in the room. Beds were comfortable.
