We stayed at this hotel for 10 days and were very satisfied. Excellent location in the Karakoy area: just a 10-minute walk from Galata Tower and 5 minutes from Galata Port. Galata Port with its cafes, restaurants and shops is an ideal place for walking and enjoying the views of the Bosphorus.
The rooms are cozy, clean, and comfortably furnished. Cleaning is carried out every two days, bed linen, towels and water are updated. The service is at the highest level – the staff is always ready to help, polite and attentive. I would especially like to thank Yusuf, who was very hospitable and always helped with any questions.
The breakfast is varied, with the possibility to choose from five items, including specialty sandwiches from simita or omelette with olives and cheese – everything is fresh and delicious.
Despite the three stars, the hotel offers excellent service that meets higher standards. We felt at home! I recommend this hotel to anyone who is looking for comfort, good location and excellent value for money.

What you liked:
It is very convenient that the hotel is managed by both Russian- and English-speaking staff. Yusuf was very endearing to himself, he told us about the hotel, the city and about excursions, in particular, along the Bosphorus by boat. 3 out of 7 days we had breakfast in hotels at a discount for residents! very tasty and pleasant. The hotel is very convenient from the point of view of logistics. There is a bus, tram and metro within a 10-minute distance. Both Sultanahmet Square and Dolmabahce Palace can be easily and quickly reached by motor transport. We will recommend it to friends and colleagues)
What didn't you like:
Of the minor disadvantages, we can note the noise outside the window. That could have prevented us only in the early days. You can also take earplugs with you, for those who are comfortable.
The room is small, clean, everything you need is there: air conditioning, hairdryer, refrigerator, kettle, tea, sugar, cups, hangers. There is always a shower cabin, hot water. Everything for a comfortable stay. The staff is friendly. We really liked it. It's noisy outside, yes, but it didn't hurt to sleep. After walking for many kilometers, you pass out instantly))) The mattress and pillow are comfortable.
