The hotel is conveniently located within walking distance of major tourist attractions, perfect for exploring the old town of Istanbul. The staff is friendly and helpful, making for a pleasant stay. However, the rooms are a bit narrow without windows to the outside, something to consider if you prefer spacious accommodations.

The rooms, although a bit narrow and lacking an exterior window, were adequate for our needs. Perhaps the size was due to booking through a third-party site, but overall, the room was acceptable.

The hotel exudes a touch of authentic Turkish glamour until 11th of March with clean and spacious rooms, but the morning rush hour detracts from the exceptional location. The staff's impressive and helpful service shines through, but the dining could have been improved with more indulgent pastries.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were small but comfortable and kept tidy, although a bit cramped for larger luggage. The heat was noticeable, and noise from neighboring rooms could be a slight annoyance. The service ranged from grumpy to kind, with a questionable extra charge for airport drop-off. On the bright side, the hotel is ideally located for exploring the old town, within walking distance of major attractions.
