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.

Acceptable for the price

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.

This hotel is breathtaking and very beautiful. From the time you enter, OkTay welcomes you with open arms, provides you with such a relaxing, calm and professional manner. Helps you take your luggage to your room after you relax and ready for his assistance. The room is extremely clean and has all the amenities you need. The hotel feels like a cozy cabin and is very beautiful. Stores, shopping malls are all within walking distance and tons of eateries. If I am able to give this hotel a 10/10 I would. Hotel staff is so wonderful and very respectful. Stellar service at any time of the day. On the day of my check out, which was raining hard, OkTay called Taxi service for me and hand carry my 2 luggage down the walkway approx 10 minutes and helped me in the taxi. Thank you OkTay for going above and beyond. You made this stay so pleasant for me. Your hotel definitely deserves a full recognition for outstanding service from the heart. I definitely will be back and hope everyone gives this hotel the recognition it deserves. Happy holidays to all and thank you again OkTay!!

Bu ikinci gidişimizdi, işimiz gereği erkek arkadaşımla bu bölgeye gelip eve dönmek istemediğimizde şans eseri bulup diğer seyahatlerimizde de tercih edeceğimiz yer kesinlikle. İlgileri, güleryüzleri, oda temizliği harikaydı. Gerçek bir fiyat performans yeri. Eğlence mekanlarına yakın olmasına rağmen kesinlikle rahatsız edici ses yoktu. Bizim kaldığımız oda 103 numaralı odaydı ve en alt kattaydı eğer yağmur da yağıyorsa inanılmaz bir görsel şölen diyebilirim tabii benim için bu böyle. Jurnal hotel ailesine teşekkür ederiz.
