Need a lesson in Hospitality

We checkin in very late at night. The night receptionist was very nice but there was a mix up with our room and at first they put us in a basement. We took a walk, got back and he apologetically asked us to move rooms. ugh .. ok. The next morning the very senior manager demanded that we change rooms, when I informed him that we were inconvenienced the night before he literally got in my face ( ? ) angry and said ... " So what ? " .. we ended up leaving.... The owners shouldn't be running a touristic hotel. Its more like a car repair shop.

Good budget hotel

The location is good, however far from the main historical places such as the Bazaar, Blue Mosque and others and taxis are a bit difficult and they want to charge too much. The hotel is comfortable, breakfast is plentiful and fresh, the staff specially Firat and Alli are true gentlemen, I felt safe and very comfortable. I did find Cuneyt the receptionist too pushy to try to sell us tours and book our taxi, it was a bit too much and made us uncomfortable. It is a budget hotel, close to the plaza, shops and easy to get around, I would stay there again.

En general es un hotel económico y bien ubicado pero no sé si es política del hotel, de las personas que trabajan o del propio país, pero no me dejaron subir a la habitación con una persona adulta como yo y conocida. Me dió la impresión que se me discriminaba porque la persona era de mi mismo sexo. Esto nunca me había pasado en ningún hospedaje de los que he visitado, por lo que nunca mas volveré ni recomendaré este local

Uzak durmanız gereken bir otel

Maxwell otel diye aldığım tek gecelik hizmeti muhtemelen otelde yer olmadığı için başka bir otele aktardılar ve diğer gittiğim otelde de temizlik ve gürültü problemi yaşadım. Bir de akşam dışarı çıkacakken otelin kapısı kitliydi ve 40 dk görevlinin gelmesini bekledim dışarı çıkmak için. Kesinlikle önermiyorum.

The best thing in this hotel is the receptionist Mr Abdullah he is so kind and helpful person. The area is not to good for families. The hotel is near Taksim square and bars, nightclub so couldn’t slept during my 6 days stay in this hotel because of drunks people shouting,fighting at 3 am 4 am. And to many scammers in this area so take care. Room and and bathroom was too small. The bedsheets was old and was not so clean. They should buy new bedsheets really needed.

Awesome service, but the place is to be renovated

Happy about the location and splendid service in terms of literally feeling the hospitality if the hotel's team. The drawback would be that the rooms are literally tine, even the delux option, we opted for this time. Besides a little renovation is overdue.
