İğrenç koku

Personel gayet kibar ve hoştu ancak otel kaldığım en kötü 2. Oteldi. Otelde aşırı Ağır bi rutubet kokusu vardı ve perdelere kadar acı acı sinmiş pis bir koku vardı. Dede evi gibi. Burnumun alışması için bayagı bir zaman geçti. Saç kurutma makinası yoktu. Nevresimleri de temiz bulmadım. Yastık kılıfları dahi yoktu. Yeri ise önceki yorumlar gibi sanki kötü işlerin döndüğü bir semt gibiydi. Aşırı rahatsız edici. Ama personel kibardı. Ama personel malesef otelin iğrençliğini kapatmıo. İstanbul un göbeğinde yok yoksul gibi otel işletiyorsunuz. Ben kimseye tavsiye etmiyorum.

Ok if your on a budget

Hotel is a bit old fashioned. Rooms and bathrooms are quite old and desperately to be furnished. Our room was pretty small for 4 people. I was hoping the room would be a little bigger. Staff was generally friendly however one guy at the reception was very rude. He’d argue with customers everyday. One day I heard him scream at a customer, which woke me up from my sleep. Language is a big problem not just in the hotel but in the whole of Istanbul. Free tea and coffee was served all day long which was nice. Hotel is close to the main tourist attractions. It’s also close to tram and bus stop. Many peoples to eat close by.
