Our stay was not satisfying overall. The breakfast was very poor with no variety, and the hotel clearly lacks maintenance — the shower leaked water outside the cabin. The only positive aspect is the location, which is very close to the taksim square.

We recommend everybody to stay at this hotel in Istanbul.

Perfect location if you are in a transit and need to be close to the airport buses and also in the center of the city. Walking distance to shops and restaurants in Taksim. A Better property than the cheap $20 locations further down.

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.

Staff were very nice, friendly and helpful. Breakfast was great. Hotel was walking distance from metro, bust station, Taksim Square and Istiqlal street. What I did not like was the elevator, it was too small and sometimes we had to wait a long time to get on it. But overall it was an enjoyable stay, and I would consider it for my next trip to Istanbul.
