Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is conveniently located in the business heart of Istanbul, near many restaurants and a big mall. The rooms are very decent with comfy beds and nice lighting, though the heating needed improvement. The service was very courteous, with excellent breakfast options served fresh. The property's fantastic location is bustling, yet near popular tourist areas like Taksim.
The hotel offers clean rooms with a nice view, though they are small and lack soundproofing. The service is attentive and professional, with accommodating staff. The location is convenient for mall access but may be noisy due to constant movement. Dining is good but somewhat limited. Overall, there are positives like the friendly staff and good service but negatives like room size and noise.
The hotel has neat and clean rooms, cozy enough for one person, and with good room service prices. However, the lack of soundproofing and delayed cleaning can be inconvenient, and the small room area doesn't match the photos. The closure of the fitness facility was disappointing as well.
My stay at the hotel was a bit disappointing overall. The rooms smelled of smoke, were too warm to sleep comfortably, and lacked privacy due to poor soundproofing. Cleaning was slow, and essential items were not replenished. The fitness facility was closed, and the room felt small with worn-out furniture. On a positive note, the service was kind and of good humor. The location was convenient near public transportation but lacked certain amenities nearby. Dining options were decent but could be improved.
