Average, could have been better
Booked a triple room. Room was spacious, beds were comfortable. Smoking area just below it so smoke entered the room via vents. To try and avoid this we couldn't use the air con or open the window. Asked for an iron but did not have access to one even though it was mentioned in the hotel description as available upon request. Breakfast was nice, wide range. Staff not very friendly. Room cleaned daily. Area was very good, next to underground metro M2 to taksim and tram line T1 to sultanahmet.

Хорошее расположение
Расположение отеля просто отличное! Станция метро Laleli Universitet просто в 2 минутах ходьбы, сама улица хоть и торговая, но тихая и приличная. Рядом много кафе, закусочных, продуктовых магазинчиков. Отель чистый, уборка и смена полотенец каждый день. Для семейного расположения нам с двумя детьми было тесновато, так как сами номера совсем небольшие. Но если без детей, было бы вполне комфортно. Очень хороший и приветливый персонал.

Хороший отель за свои деньги.
Нормальный отель за свои деньги,на торговой улице,но не шумно.Мне понравилось.Небольшой хол,но он и не нужен,есть Камера хранения,можно оставить чемоданы.На рецепшен очень любезны,наливают хороший турецкий чай бесплатно.В номере чисто и хорошая душевая кабина.Убирали каждый день( молодцы)Небольшой ресторанчик на последним этаже,но на удивление разная еда( надо учитывать что это завтрак).У меня номер был небольшой ,две кровати.Может вдвоём и мало место,но я приезжала не в номере сидеть.Обязательно остановлюсь,с учётом цены конечно.Бесплатный вай фай с отличным сигналом.
