The hotel had a lot of character and it's best selling point is the location - tight opposite the blue mosque with a fantastic view. It is a little tired but it's not hugely noticable. The staff are really friendly and very helpful. The breakfast was varied and great that it was included. Drinks on the outside terrace were great and the birw is amazing, although alcohol is very expensive.

The location of the hotel was the best. If you want to stay in the old town near the main attractions, you can’t beat that. However, there are some things you should know. If you book the blue mosque view Rome, the bathroom is a Turkish style and very small and not convenient. The staff was very friendly and helpful, but they didn’t have any other options besides this type of room. They did move us the second day to a bigger room, but the bathroom had the same limitation. The breakfast is good and you can request them to cook your eggs and there’s a decent variety. It’s a good overall stay but for the price we expected a little more amenities and the room to be a little better.
