IIraidkaOverall, I had a positive experience at the hotel.
Pros:
- Location: It's in the heart of the historic district, right next to the Sirkeci metro station. You can easily walk to Sultanahmet, the Grand Bazaar, and the Spice Bazaar.
- Great rooftop restaurant with a fantastic view.
- Delicious breakfast.
- Very friendly staff: I especially want to commend the housekeeper, who was incredibly helpful and quick to respond to requests for water, clean towels, and an iron, which was brought to my room instantly.
Cons:
- There was a sewage smell in the hallway.
- The air conditioning/climate control was not adjustable. It was either too hot (27-28°C) or freezing cold (16°C). You couldn't set a comfortable temperature; you had to call reception, and then the temperature would change for the entire hotel. We couldn't quite figure out how it worked.
- No window in the room: It was advertised as having a city view, but in reality, it looked out onto the wall of the neighboring building.
