Posizionata nelle immediate vicinanze dei luoghi di maggior interesse e comunque vicino ai mezzi pubblici di trasporto che servono le altre zone della città. Personale cortese e totalmente disponibile nel fornire indicazioni e nella cura del cliente, farlo sentire a suo agio. Pulizia attenta, camera adatta alle esigenze di una coppia con un letto molto comodo. Nel complesso a mio giudizio merita l'eccellenza.

Hôtel à 3mn de la place Sultanahmet, c'est un petit hôtel très accueillant, le petit déjeuner complet, le personnel toujours souriant et souciant du confort de leurs clients, tout le personnel est amical et que je remercie beaucoup y compris les 2 dames du petit déjeuner. J'ai eu la chambre 103, la chambre était grande et propre juste le matelas manque un peu de confort mais ça n'empêche pas de bien dormir.. merci à toute l'équipe pour ce beau séjour. C'est un hôtel qui mérite 5 étoiles malgré sa simplicité mais grâce à son équipe. Je reviendrai avec plaisir à cet hôtel. Toute mon amitié à l'équipe y compris les dames du petit déjeuner. Zohra.
