I had a mixed experience at this hotel. On the plus side, the location was great, very close to public transport, making it easy to explore the city. The staff were friendly and helpful, which made my stay more pleasant. Unfortunately, the room I received was quite small and wasn't very comfortable. Additionally, the dining experience left a lot to be desired, as the food options were lacking. Overall, it had its positives but definitely areas that could use improvement.

The hotel is ideally located, close to both metro and tram stations, making it easy to get around the city. The rooms are rather small, and I struggled with space during my stay. The service was polite and helpful, but there were moments of language barrier. On the dining front, my experience wasn't great, as the food quality fell short of expectations. Overall, it’s good value for money when considering its location, but the limited room size and dining options could be improvements.

The hotel is impressively located right near the Grand Bazaar, with the metro and tram station just a short walk away, making it super convenient. The rooms, however, were a bit too small for my liking, and there was an issue with water leaking in the bathroom. The staff was friendly, but I found communication a bit difficult at times. Overall, it had its ups and downs, especially with the dining options that could really use improvement.

The hotel is in a great location right by Istanbul University, making it super convenient for getting around. The rooms are spacious and cleaned daily, though I did have an issue with a leaky bath. The service left a lot to be desired; the staff hardly spoke English and I overheard them talking about me in Russian. On the dining front, breakfast was quite poor and could definitely use improvement. Overall, it's decent for the price, but not ideal.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. On one hand, the location was fantastic, being very close to the metro and tram stations, making it easy to get around the city. The staff were friendly and helpful, which made my stay more comfortable. However, the rooms were quite small and I did encounter some issues with a leaking bathroom. The dining options were also disappointing, with a very poor breakfast selection. Overall, it was decent value for money if all you need is a place to sleep.
