It was the worst hotel I've ever been to; there were even spiders, the restaurant chairs were disgusting, the breakfast was inedible ,the door locks didn't lock, I felt unsafe, and Expedia was irresponsible. I asked for a refund because I had to change hotels, and they still haven't resolved the issue.

The place is due for renovation. Lift lobby is sensor lighting which will turn off within couple of second if no moving, and the lobby became black out. External noise from the night life nearby might disrupt the sleep. Breakfast is average. Convenient location to Taksim Square and direct bus (in front of Point Hotel) to Istanbul airport.
