I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The location was absolutely fantastic, just a short walk from Istiklal street, adding great convenience for exploring. The staff was friendly and very helpful throughout my stay. However, the room left much to be desired as it had a strong bad smell, was noisy due to the rooftop air conditioners, and was not as clean as I would have hoped. The dining options were quite poor, and I wouldn't recommend dining there.

The hotel had a great location, very close to Taksim and İstiklal street, making it super convenient to explore Istanbul. The rooms were clean and comfortable, although the view from my window was quite overlooked by a wall, which made them feel a bit dark. The staff was friendly and helpful, but I noticed they primarily spoke German, which might be a challenge for English-only speakers. Overall, it offered decent value for money, though the dining options could definitely improve.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The location was fantastic, just a couple of minutes from İstiklal Street, which made exploring the area easy and enjoyable. The staff was friendly and very accommodating, but the rooms were on the smaller side, which was a bit tight for three people. Dining was not ideal, and I found it better to eat out nearby instead. Overall, it has great potential but could use some improvements in room size and dining options.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. On the upside, the staff was incredibly friendly and the location couldn't have been better, just a short stroll from Istiklal street. However, the rooms were a bit too dark for my liking and there was quite a bit of noise from the rooftop air conditioning units. Overall, it was decent but not ideal.
