Overall the stay was fine other than the cleaners coming way too early or not cleaning at all. The breakfast was ok not much of a range for a turkish hotel. The location is very busy at times and there are plenty of food places.

It would have been more appropriate if the hotel was rated as 2 or 3-star hotel instead of 4-start on the Orbitz website. there were broken/cracked furniture, bathroom sink, rusted door frames around the building. The bar area was used as storage filled with boxes and bags and old furniture. The breakfast was very good though and the location appeared to be safe but in a very busy and crowded part of the city. the staff were mostly friendly and helpful. The rooms were kept clean daily.

There is no way this hotel ever had 4 stars, it is a no-star budget hotel in a noisy street, the room had a kettle but no glasses or coffee or anything to use with the kettle. Half the furniture was falling apart. The rooms are cramped and old. The continental breakfast is basic but adequate, their soup was quite good. It's fine if you need nothing more than a place to sleep.
