Average, could have been better
Booked a triple room. Room was spacious, beds were comfortable. Smoking area just below it so smoke entered the room via vents. To try and avoid this we couldn't use the air con or open the window. Asked for an iron but did not have access to one even though it was mentioned in the hotel description as available upon request. Breakfast was nice, wide range. Staff not very friendly. Room cleaned daily. Area was very good, next to underground metro M2 to taksim and tram line T1 to sultanahmet.

Хорошее расположение
Расположение отеля просто отличное! Станция метро Laleli Universitet просто в 2 минутах ходьбы, сама улица хоть и торговая, но тихая и приличная. Рядом много кафе, закусочных, продуктовых магазинчиков. Отель чистый, уборка и смена полотенец каждый день. Для семейного расположения нам с двумя детьми было тесновато, так как сами номера совсем небольшие. Но если без детей, было бы вполне комфортно. Очень хороший и приветливый персонал.

Хороший отель за свои деньги.
Нормальный отель за свои деньги,на торговой улице,но не шумно.Мне понравилось.Небольшой хол,но он и не нужен,есть Камера хранения,можно оставить чемоданы.На рецепшен очень любезны,наливают хороший турецкий чай бесплатно.В номере чисто и хорошая душевая кабина.Убирали каждый день( молодцы)Небольшой ресторанчик на последним этаже,но на удивление разная еда( надо учитывать что это завтрак).У меня номер был небольшой ,две кровати.Может вдвоём и мало место,но я приезжала не в номере сидеть.Обязательно остановлюсь,с учётом цены конечно.Бесплатный вай фай с отличным сигналом.

I really liked the hotel. The staff is very kind and helpful. You can at any time ask for water, tea or coffee for free in the room . The room is very clean, the bedding and the towel are pleasant and fresh, the breakfasts are delicious and satisfying. The hotel is inexpensive, but better than 3 star hotels. Convenient location, 2 metro nearby. I will come back here, I am pleasantly surprised

Obsługa bardzo dobra ,bez proszenia chętnie pomaga i doradza.Posiłki bardzo smaczne.Cena pokoju trochę za wysoka jak na ten standard.Pokojówki bardzo dyskretnie dbają o czystość i porządek w pokoju.Hotel położony blisko centrum ,w miejscu bardzo dogodnym do zwiedzania i kupowania.

Good experience
The hotel is clean and tidy, there is a lobby you can sit in and a terrace where you can sit and spend some time. The location is clean and close to the tram. They offer you tea for free in the lobby and they respected the price they gave on expedia. The staff is friendly and the breakfast is very good and varied. The only thing that they have to be more careful about is the room service. They need door signals to be hanged on the door handle to show a don't disturb time and more comfortable cussions.They also need to let the towls smell nicer. Thanks to them.

Berbat polanin otel
Otelin konumu itibariyle insanı tedirgin ediyor. Otele girer girmez tuhaf tuhaf insanlarla karşılaşıyorsunuz. Resepsiyonun ilgisi berbat. Saat 13.00 de otele giriş yaptık, rezerve olan oda pisti,onun yerine gösterdikleri 2 oda da pisti, en son biz eşyaları bıraktık, akşam gelince odaya yerleşebildik. Yaşanan sıkıntıdan dolayı ekstra oda göstermeyi resepsiyon lütufta bulunduklarını kabul ediyordu. Böyle bir otelin bu sitede yer alması bile utanç sebebi. Asla ailenizle gidebileceğiniz bir otel değil. Çalışanlar da lakayit davranıyor. Berbat bir tecrübeydi asla kalmayı düşünmüyorum
