This is an A class hotel, I love it, I booked originally at a nearby hotel, but as a common thing in low key Istanbul hotels, that was a scam, so I had to book a nearby hotel, AND LUCKY US, we booked at this one, Avenue was nothing but great, great staff, daily room cleaning, beautiful lobby and wonderful rooms with boutique vibe, less than 10 minutes walk from Taksim square and the metro station which is vital in Turkey , and 5 minutes to Istiklal street, this place is awesome and I highly recommend it for sure, hopefully will come back soon, Whatever we asked for they did for us, we asked for iron, they provided which is rare in Turkey BTW, we even asked for a scale to measure the luggage weight and they had, we asked for umbrella and they provided and all was with no charge, go there avoid the scams around
