GREAT BREAKFAST AND STAFF! Such a good location for tourists as it's in the heart of a bunch of attractions and steps away from the train to go to further locations. The staff were amazing, went out of their way to make sure our stay was great. Would definitely go back to the same hotel next time.

Really pretty bad. We had reasonable expectations but this was disgusting. I don't know for sure but I think they may have been overbooked and put us in a room under construction. The bathroom was repulsive. Black mold everywhere. We slept there the first night and when we went to shower the water was pouring directly out on the floor. We called the front desk and they said they would give us a new room later. But we wanted to shower before heading out. They found a room someone had checked out of and we stayed there for the next night. It was an updated room but far from luxury. A little cleaner but I would NOT stay there again.

Location is great - walking distance to main attractions. The hotel itself is incredibly dated and is in serious need of being renovated. Anyone with asthma or a dust allergy would struggle. The hotel staff are nice and helpful- no complaints there. It's a shame, as location and staff were great. However based on the hotel itself i would not recommend.

Pros- nice location, room was clean, breakfast was decent, stuff helpful. Cons- hotel itself is very outdated. Big part of the Lobby room is dark and filled with stuff. Hotel has an access to the roof with an incredible view, but it is not in use for anything. Needed an iron, got it only on the second day. Water in the shower was not draining. And it is on the street with restaurants, so every night it was very laud from outside till 1-2am. I probably won’t stay here again unless there will be some renovations.

The hotel is very central and within walking distance to the tram, shopping and restaurants. The front desk is extremely helpful and friendly. Breakfast was also good. Hotel, though, needs an upgrade with new carpets and room decor as well as reception area. Else a wonderful stay at the hotel.

Under average for 50€ per night
Absolutely terrible experience. The room was full of mold and musty wooden smell. It triggered my Asthma. Very small and congested room. The bathroom was not so clean. Had trouble with hot and cold shower. The breakfast was below average for the price. The only positive thing is that it's 7 minutes walk from Sirkeci Marmaray station. I stayed there for only one night
