I recently stayed at this hotel and found it to be a decent option overall. The location is excellent, just a short walk to the Grand Bazaar and close to public transport. The rooms were clean and equipped with new furniture, but they felt a bit cramped, especially for my luggage. The service was friendly but lacked some additional amenities. I enjoyed the breakfast, though the variety could use some improvement. Overall, it’s good value for money, but not without its flaws.

I had a decent stay at this hotel, thanks to its fantastic location near major tourist attractions like Hagia Sophia and the Blue Mosque. The staff was friendly and welcoming, which made the experience enjoyable. However, the room was quite small and lacked air conditioning, making it uncomfortable at times. The dining options could also use some improvement, as they felt quite repetitive and leaned more towards local fare than international variety.
