No parking in the area, Police will not allow the cars to come in front of the hotel even though we had a paper from the hotel to allowing us. Everyone is rude, WiFi is very slow and works only 2 hours a day. I don’t recommend this place at all.

Disliked: Cleanliness
The staff were very nice and tried hard to fix some of the issues. The room looked great and the bed was comfortable but it was dirty. I had dropped something on the floor and realized under the bed was never swept. Like 2-3 inches of yuck. The bathroom was nice but the shower was dangerous. The shower floor was slippery and had a crack in it and would bleed out black stuff. I ended up putting a towel down so I wouldn't fall. The aircon was not cold. It was like 80-85' in my rm and only cooled off after sun went down. Finally, the wifi was very spotty. Most times had to go to lobby to do computer work. However, I was offered another room but I did not like the location and it was smaller and no difference in rm temp. On the plus side: I could wash my shirts and they would dry by the time I returned for the day. A small grocery across street offered toiletries, fruit, drinks and candy. Hotel walking distance (10-15min walk) to Bizarre and sites, tram station very close and it was safe with a descent breakfast buffet/omelet in am. The gym and lobby area were clean and actually cooler then my room.

Good service and comfortable beds. We didn’t choose to pay for breakfast so I don’t know about the food. Wonderful view but only for short periods because we had to close curtains for privacy. It’s quite a distances and uphill from public transport.

Our stay was for 6 nights. All of the staff were courteous, friendly & most helpful. Breakfast was a highlight with a very diverse & healthy selection.Our room was very quiet & comfortable, with the hotel in close proximity to restaurants, the light rail, which connects to major attractions in 6-7 minutes, 9-10 minutes for the Bosphorus. The manager was very generous with his time organising tours & taxi cabs, etc. We were very pleased with our hotel selection.
