My stay at the hotel was quite mixed. The room was newly decorated and had a lovely view of the sea and traditional roofs, but it was uncomfortably noisy being located beside the reception area. The service was helpful and friendly, but unfortunately, we were robbed and left to find our way to the hotel ourselves. The location was perfect for exploring the main tourist attractions and offered a quiet retreat despite being in the center of the old town. The dining experience was inconsistent, with some delicious dishes but also some disappointments. The facilities were decent overall.

The service was a bit lacking as the staff were too busy to help, although they were extremely hospitable and attended to our needs. The location was very close to everything I needed to see in town without even using a taxi, but the walk to Hippodrome square was terrible due to the outside appearance of the street. The dining experience was simple but had everything needed for a morning meal. The facilities were satisfactory with some room for improvement.

My stay at the hotel was delightful! The rooms were clean and the bed was super comfy, with a spectacular sea view that was worth every penny. Although the 'balcony' was not exactly as expected, the sea-view room surpassed my expectations. The service was very friendly and helpful, with a promise to update the website for clarity. The hotel's location was a perfect base for exploring historical sites and attractions. Dining was a delicious experience with a wide selection of fresh food. Overall, a great value for money!

I couldn't get enough of the breathtaking sea view from my room balcony! The rooms were spotless and cozy, but the lack of clear sea views as advertised left me a tad disappointed. However, the staff acknowledged the issue and promised corrective actions. The modest breakfast repetition was a bit of a letdown, plus the absence of basic amenities like towels and toilet paper. Overall, I enjoyed learning about the city from the incredibly friendly staff.

The hotel had a great view of the sea and traditional roofs, but the room needed some touching up and felt moist, making it hard to keep warm. The 2nd-floor room was cleaned daily and quiet, but the walls were thin, allowing noise from neighbors at times.

The hotel on the 2nd floor was extremely comfortable and very clean, ensuring our stay was pleasant and worry-free. The staff was welcoming and nice, though a heads-up before entering for cleaning would have been appreciated. The location in Fatih of Istanbul provided easy access to all main attractions and a good view from the terrace.
