I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were quite small, and there was an issue with the shower head during my stay leading to water splashing everywhere. Additionally, there was a power outage. On the positive side, the hotel is conveniently located near famous attractions like the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia.

The hotel offers a cozy stay in Istanbul, making me feel at home when I return to this beautiful city. The rooms are a bit small, and during shower time, there was an issue with the shower head causing water to splash everywhere. Additionally, we experienced a power outage, which was inconvenient. However, I appreciated the location at the upper floor before booking, offering a unique perspective of the surroundings.
