Paid for a king bed at the hotel, got a room with three smaller beds in a building behind the hotel. Came back on the third day to a guy in our room. The reception worker was nice, and the location was excellent. However, I also got mildly electrocuted in the shower.

The current state of property does not match photos on Expedia. It's in disrepair. The room I had was awful, AC was full of dust, sealant around bathtub was full of mould, pipe under bathroom sink was leaking, mattress was worn in the middle, I used my own blanket. WiFi just about worked when downstairs. Location is great for sightseeing but very noisy outside, you can hear everything, from people talking, to cars, to dogs marking. People are nice but it seems like they don't care much about the hotel or customers.

The hotel was older with all the little quirks of an older establishment. Our room was clean and comfy with a seating area and a coffee table. The air condioner worked great after a long day walking around. The location was awesome. 3 minute walk your are in the heart of old Istanbul without all the noise. The staff were helpful and very friendly all the time.

Unclean. Room was old, bits of furniture falling apart, visible of dirt and dust on tabletops and furnishings and the floors were visible of grubble and dirt. The hotel, room and bathroom smelt musty and unclean. Bathroom old, gross, MOULD present. Our room was located ground floor closest to the road and it was soooo very noise of vehicles driving pass, people chatting loudly in lobby/reception area, suitcases outside we can hear rolling along the uneven stone floor. Could not sleep at all. So would recommend to get room on higher floor or elsewhere. Price was cheaper than others, so you get what you pay for I guess

The location is great but that's about it! The property is very old and needs a lot of repairs. The lady at reception is VERY LOUD! They don't consider the time and when people are sleeping. She would be yelling at 1am . We asked several times for our rooms tvs to be fixed but that never happened. I really wish I had read the reviews before booking. I would pay a bit more and get a better hotel.

The hotel is located in a decent neighborhood, not too far from Sultanahmet and all the tourist places. Breakfast was less than exciting and there was no room cleaning service for the 4 days I stayed. Not sure if I had to explicitly ask them for it. Overall, not bad for the price.
