Cutest hotel in no so nice neighborhood

We loved the hotel. It was wonderful to have 2 separate rooms, a perfectly sized, clean kitchen area. The hotel was ev er so quiet and after walking 8 hours, this was bliss! I think we were on the ugliest street in Istanbul, but for the savings and general location - we would go there again!
