Great location, great value

Once one knows, it's just 200m from the Metro, and which exit, how to get there, best location ever. Super friendly, Istanbul hospitality. One core factor to make this the core return place. Immediately prolonged my stay.

If I’m honest, I wouldn’t stay here again. Staff were friendly and helpful but the building was quite run down, dingy and dark. There were hairs and stains on the bed and towels and the room just felt very oppressive. I don’t think the advertised photos give a true representation of the hotel.

The hotel is in a cute alley with a few bars around the corner. It can get fairly noisy at night but nothing out of the usual for being near an extremely busy pedestrian street. The hotel is cute and clean. The staff are helpful and kind. Would recommend especially with the location, price and quality

Second stay at this nice (2023 and 2024), small hotel in the center of Istanbul. Rooms are small but convinient with shower and A/C. Bring ear plugs as very lively area at night. Now elevator installed. No breakfast but cafes just 2 min away. Staff very nice and arranged and helped us with taxi to airport In heavy rain. Will come back.

Nice and central hotel for the price, rooms are very small suitable for one person. The staff is not service minded at all, they wouldn’t even help me taking my suitcase down from the stairs when I asked for help.

Receptionists were really nice and helpful, unfortunately cleanliness of the hotel is really bad. Looked like they didn’t mop the floor in the room for so long and there was so much dust. Location is really good and price that we paid was okay but they need to improve their cleanliness. We did request for housekeeper to come but she only changed our towels.
