When we arrived at 4pm the room was still not ready for another hour and a half. The room once given were not on the same floor as requested either. We were then told they will try again the next day. The room I was in had a leak coming from the ceiling in the bathroom and when we complained they said it was not a serious enough issue to change rooms. After being mg adamant they gave us 2 rooms on the same floor but the light switches didn’t work well and the room could have been cleaner. Overall the pool was great and the view was amazing. I guess you get what you paid for. The tall man at the reception was accommodating. Thank you

I have never stayed this kind terrible hotel before. The equipment, such as TV, electric pot, fridge and light is completely broken or very poor. As for cleanliness, they didn't seem to clean the room. The good points are the price and the location. We can access to many touristic spots easily.

It wasn’t good at all, the service was so bad and the room was dirty and also there was too much noise at night because the room isn’t isolated so we couldn’t sleep at all.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
I don’t know why the room was so poor. Maybe, we chose the lower price? The room was too dark to know whether it was clean or not. The fridge and TV were completely broken. (Why didn’t they remove them?) The good point is the accessibility: the hotel is close to T1(Tram), which goes to Sultanahmet and Eminönü, and M2(Metro), which goes to the Istanbul airport. The hotel staff are friendly, but I don't know whether they were well-knowledgeable about the access to touristic spots.

My baby’s cot bed wasn’t available the night we arrived even though it was clear from the booking we had a baby with us. On arrival, we were told we had to wait until the next morning to request a bed so ended up cosleeping with the baby, which isn’t safe, but had no choice. The next day a play pen arrived which was ok. The shower was dated and a bit of it kept falling off, but overall it was OK. Location was good for the sites we wanted to see. Breakfast was good - really good range of food, from bread, to fruits, meats and salads. We always had a lovely breakfast. Great for a city break.
