the hotel was nice. the staff was helpful, a little too serious but that is ok. the hotel was discounted on expedia, around 50 bucks per night so, i cannot complain. couple friendly. the breakfast was tasty, although the buffet did not have too many options. not too many dining options near the hotel. basically, if you need to be in besiktas, in a 3 star quality hotel, and if the hotel is discounted to less than 100 dollars per night, then you should go for it, you will get a good deal.
