Good location.
Location was great, walkable to the main mosques and others sightseeing. Many shopping options nearby. Breakfast was ok. The downside was that in our room the window was high, which we could not see outside, making the room dark.

Don't stay here
First, there are no elevators and we stay on the 3rd floor. A/C does not work, no safe, room is too small, no space for 2 suite cases, breakfast was a joke. The surroundings are terrible even though it is near Sultanahmet.

Property was on a busy street filled with restaurants, close to blue mosque and transport so good location. Entrance was through the restaurant below, breakfast was small and limited despite being a buffet and options repeated every morning. The windows are small and very high up so there’s no view to be seen from the room and feels a little like a prison. Staff are friendly and cleaner was good.
