Great budget stay in the heart of Istanbul! The location and price ratio is probably the best you can imagine — just a 5-minute walk to the very heart of the city. The hotel is small, which is actually a big plus — cozy and quiet. Breakfast was included. It’s very simple and basic, but everything was fresh and tasty — exactly what you need to start the day. There was unlimited access to tea, coffee, and water, which was also a nice touch. The rooms are tiny, yes, but honestly — we weren’t there to sit in the room, we were out exploring the city! It’s perfect for a good night’s sleep after a busy day. If you're looking for a budget-friendly place in the city center, this is definitely the right spot. The staff was super friendly and helpful — they even lent me a phone charger for my entire 4-day stay. Thank you so much!
Almost everything was good, apart the smell of nicotine in the corridors

The breakfast was really great in the morning (a huge buffet with lots of options), the staff was very friendly and helpful, and the location was fantastic! Also water, coffee and tea were available for free all day and the shower was great!
The rooms were very small and the bed was not comfortable at all. You could feel the springs through the mattress, and a double bed was two twins put together so you could feel the space in between the mattresses.

Property was in an amazing location. There was a lift and breakfast was standard European style. The staff were amazing and were super accommodating and were able to provide early check in and couldn’t help enough with any questions I can. The shower has great pressure and water was so hot during the cold weather. The room was basic and whilst clean, could have done with a good scrub. The noise was standard for accommodation in a bustling city centre and didn’t stop the light sleeper I am from sleeping well. I highly recommend 😃

It massively exceeded my expectations. It was listed as a one star hotel but it was so so nice to stay here. The breakfast was a lovely touch I wasn't expecting and it was really tasty. The staff were really nice. The location was perfect and well within walking distance of everything. I had a great time
The wifi was a bit dodgy but it didn't impact my overall experience as I spent most of the time out exploring

Location is very cenral for sightseeing.You can see all the major sights on foot. The breakfast was surprisingly good. Lots of cheese, meat, eggs, variety of olives, salad, cereals, along with the standard bread, coffee and juice.
The room is VERY tiny. If you have big bags, you will have hardly any space to move around. If you are a light traveler and just want a place to crash for the night, this is perfect. If not, look elsewhere.

The location is 3 minutes away from Sultanahmed square where are the Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia and many other places. Everyone from reception desk was very polite and friendly, they welcomed me very well and helped me with some information and advice. They made everything possible to make me feel good! I definitely recommend.
Breakfast could be a little more various.

The location. There is a bakery near hotel where we got a chance to try local delicacies. We easily walk from Vezneciler metro to hotel for about 20 minutes at night 9pm. Tram T1 is close to hotel though. Breakfast is okay with various salad and jam and sauces, bread eggs sausage, etc, and chocolate cake (in the morning 😁). Strong water pressure with hot water, would be nice during winter.
The room really is small. Would be difficult to move around with large luggage, but if traveling light it shouldn't be too much problem. Only linen as a blanket, too thin for me but enough for my partner. Perhaps hotel didn't provide thick blanket because it's autumn?

The location is very close to Blue Mosque and the centre. The breakfast was very good with a lot to choose from. They were also helpful with local information or any special dietary requests. It was clean and the cleaning was done everyday with fresh towels provided. The room had AC which was appreciated as it was very hot in July! There is a lift which is helpful if you're on the top floor.
The size of the room, a little on the small side. Could be a bit noisy at times but this is expected if you're in the centre right at the heart of the Tourist area. No kettle in the room but there was a kitchen area where tea, coffee, hot n cold water was provided.
