I had a wonderful stay at this hotel in the heart of Sultanahmet area. The staff was amazing, making us feel like friends. The location was superb, just minutes away from the Blue Mosque and other main attractions. However, there was an issue with the water in the shower causing a bit of a mess, and our room wasn't cleaned for two nights during our week-long stay.

My stay at the hotel was fantastic! The rooms were quite large and home-y, making them so comfortable. The mattress was definitely a 10 out of 10, but it did get a bit hot due to the weather. The private bathroom was a great touch, and most of the necessary commodities were provided. However, the room was a bit loud with noise from neighboring rooms and the street.
