Honestly, it was disappointing. The room was extremely small, barely enough space for one double bed and a tiny wardrobe. The bed itself was broken, and the mattress was stiff, uneven, and very uncomfortable. To make things worse, the room was full of ants. There were no curtains, so the street lights kept the room bright all night. On the positive side, the receptionist was very kind, spoke perfect English, and tried her best to help us. The hotel was also located in a nice neighborhood in Sultanahmet, close to public transportation

The hotel was older with all the little quirks of an older establishment. Our room was clean and comfy with a seating area and a coffee table. The air condioner worked great after a long day walking around. The location was awesome. 3 minute walk your are in the heart of old Istanbul without all the noise. The staff were helpful and very friendly all the time.

Budget friendly, Perfect location!

I received a good service in terms of price-performance. Given how cheap it was, I should be fair about the quality and service, which is very important. They didn’t charge me for the six cups of coffee I had. It's budget-friendly and located very close to the heart of Istanbul, so I recommend it.

Paid for a king bed at the hotel, got a room with three smaller beds in a building behind the hotel. Came back on the third day to a guy in our room. The reception worker was nice, and the location was excellent. However, I also got mildly electrocuted in the shower.
