Номер был очень маленький, но это не испортило впечатление, так как приходили туда только поспать и в душ. Хороший завтрак. В целом понравилось.

Small room but well equipped with everything needed.
Excellent buffet breakfast is taken at a different hotel next door but one. This breakfast room is on the 6th floor with a good view of the sea. However there is no lift and access is via a spiral staircase which could be a problem for some.

Неоправданные отзывы
В отеле, очень маленьк ие номера, в душе грибок. За окнами проходит Ж/Д ветка, но поезда ходят не часто. Начиная с 3-го этажа открывается вид на Босфор. Расположение отеля отличное, до Голубой мечети 5 мин пешком.

Die Lage des Hotels ist super. Viele Sehenswürdigkeiten können zu Fuss erreicht werden. Der Frühstücksraum mit Blick aufs Meer ist ebensfalls sehr schön.
Die Zimmer sind sehr klein aber sauber. Das Personal war stehts sehr freundlich.

Die lage des Hostels war optimal, innerhalb von 5-10 Minuten war man direkt bei der blauen Moschee und bei der Haltestelle. Das Personal war siper freundlich und sehr hilfsbereit. Die Zimmer waren auch sehr sauber und wurden auch regelmäßig geputzt

Aan de buitenkant is het niet te zien dat het een hotel is, we hadden schimmel in onze kamer, dus elke keer als we de kamer in kwamen stonk het. Ik zou hier niet langer dan 2 dagen verblijf aanraden. De kamer die we hadden gekregen was heel klein nauwelijks beweegruimte. Over het personeels is er vrij weinig te zeggen wordt geen Engels gesproken na de manager na verder best vriendelijk.

I spent my short holidays in this hotel. The service desk personnel was helpfull, caring and very Professional. The multiple pick-up and drop-off to the Atatürk airport was always on time. The breakfast was great, quiet at night and central for all the important places to visit. Thank you for your kindness, my daughter and I will remember you!

It’s a very nice small hotel. Location is great. It’s a little bit hard to find as it is in the old city. The breakfast is served on the roof top there you have a wonderful view. Worth it!

Kwa prijs kwaliteit vergelijking redelijk goed hotel. Er zijn altijd wel minpunten maar over het algemeen heel tevreden. Personeel SUPER vriendelijk en behulpzaam. Aangeraden restaurant door personeel was echt super goed en 1 min. Van het hotel. Ik zou er zeker nog een keer naar toe gaan.
