Great place to stay in the Taksim Area { Tourist area } Kafes, Shops, Restaurants , easy walking.
The place was nice, but the noise from the surrounding pubs was too much, usually the music lasted until 5 AM.
Taksim is where its at - you must see it and the Rest of Istanbul at least once.
Staff working at the recepte are very nice but it is absolutely not hygienic in the room, we had to ask the staff to change the bed clothes and it was never done. They came into the rum to make the bed and leave water bottles, so we had to wash cups with only water for a whole week
There is no lift from ground level to first level and you should carry your luggage by yourself. Staff are not friendly.
the air conditioner was not working and the room is so dirty , I don’t recommend at all
Hotel was clean, location was central...One thing I have to mention is the noise from a nightclub close by that you can hear in the room up to 3 in the morning or so!!
Good location - gets a little noisy at night if you keep your windows open - shut them and turn on the A C if needed.
It was an excellent location but noise at evening till morning. Overall it was satisfactory stay
I stayed here for 2 night very friendly staff to deal with they was super nice to me i will stay there again for sure next time im in Istanbul
No problems here - you can shop on Iskatel st. or use the metro or take the underground train { in the metro stat. } to Kabatas and then get on the tram and view the Bosphorus strait- easily. Or if you are a hiker - head out and beat feet to the water views of the Bosphorus - 30 - 35 min - max. from Iskatel st. Check out the kafe's.
Easy access to everything from taxis, shopping , Kafe's, Meydan excursion points, banking, Camilla Mosque is nice to listen to in the background - soft, and Iskatel blvd is 3 minutes away.
Nice location.
Good staff especially reception guys very very good good service
Pleasant stay. Great location. Good price!
Nice
Staff was very helpful
Brilliant hotel just off istiklal. All staff very friendly and helpful especially Kader. Will definitely stay again
Very disappointed as the room had no hot water in the they told us you had to run it for half an hour but it didn't get hot a very nosie area and had to ask them to sort the door lock
The value for the money here was right on point. Very helpful owner and staff and perfectly adequate accommodations with all the basics you need. It is very loud at night but it also means you’re in a happening neighborhood! We had a lot of fun. Bring ear plugs, download white noise and get really good value for your money by staying here!
to much nois at night. it is understandeble because it is an outgoing area.
I liked the service, clean, and close by .
Convenient stay
Cheap and convenient for visit purposes.
Overall good experience. Central location and interesting architectural work.
The staff was really nice ! They really took care of us during our stay there. The room was clean and organized. We really loved our stay there
We stayed 4 nights but 48 hours of it heater and air-condition was not working. The staff refuse to give us small heater. Rooms with a lots of spiders.
Great location, clean, nice staff, the best place in Taksim, highly recommend it.
OK .Centre of Taksim Square Good for short stays.Bit old property old elevator . but clean and close to all. We stayed only for 9 hours.
Excellent location, wonderful English speaking staff. The Manager as well as the young gentlemen with Lebanese heritage. Far much better experience than my last stay in another place. I am certain it would be even better once repairs are completed.
The staff was so friendly
It is a small hotel , but comfortable and economic. easy access to everywhere near Taxim . Isteklal street is 1 minute walk , Taxim square is 5 minutes walk . Easy access to all transportation. The room was a bit small Or maybe my room was small . I stayed on 3rd floor . But the good thing is that the rooms are sound proof . And air-conditioned . I will definitely stay there again . Oh by way the for those who travel with car , this property don’t have car park nearby , but there are few paid car parkings about 5 minutes by walking distance.
Great building with high ceilings. Amir at reception was very helpful. Helped arrange airport transfer at a reasonable price.
Very noisy
The place not clean and the property is not as in the photo I leave the hotel in the second day
Centrally Located.
A nice hotel right in the centre of the party area. Shower was good. Bed was super-comfortable. Pillows need to be changed. They are stained. Staff friendly and helpful.
A huge effort must be made regarding cleaniness. I was mislead by pictures and comments, but it wasn't as expected. The good point about the hotel is the location that is in the middle of Istiklal street.
hair dryer wasn't working and i ask to be chakecked , they didnt care
Big mistake reserving in this hotel, I had a reservation for two nights but I move the next day, besides is not refundable!, first of all if you are only single and if you plan to party all night long and also this is the place for you, otherwise run away. The stairs and the rooms smell so much like cigarettes, the noise is so bad you are not gonna be able to sleep even with earplugs because the bars are just downstairs. the beds are so hard! I ended up with back and pain shoulder, and the pillows need to be replaced. The elevator was not working and my key was not working either every time I needed to use my room the staff had to open it for me. among other problems.
Rooms are too old, and small unlike the photos! the facility needs a lot of repiars! elevator is always not working
I couldn’t find the hotel . Taxi couldn’t get me there. No one in the area knows the hotel. Tried to contact the hotel and no response
Very disappointing. Checking in was difficult and hotel staff was rigid in resolving an unexpected issue. We had reserved a room for 2 people with 2 beds. Description of room on Expedia site was not consistent with what the hotel staff’s understanding. And we were given a room with one bed only instead, despite our specific reservation and our willingness to pay extra if necessary. Additionally a large window in the room did not have curtains to block sun light and to allow for privacy. Thanks to a good person on staff (Mr Salih), a window cover was provided. The following day, we were moved to a different room still with one bed only instead of two as expected. The room was very noisy. Poorly maintained and poorly inspected. Among others things, the windows covers were missing hooks and not holding properly. The hotel’s standing could improve under a competent management with customer focused staff.
Hotel is in a right location and everything is nearby ..that’s what I like the most ..It’s all walkable distance and it’s so convenient.The hotel staff are really helpful if you need any help and they are friendly.
Very disappointed. Poor attention to customer needs. One exception: Mr. Salih (a worker there) was helpful. Expedia site appeared to show incorrect room information. That created a problem upon our checking in. Hotel staff / checking staff was rigid. Noisy site. Hotel has good potential if management is serious and focused to improve, to satisfy the clients.
This is a very economy hotel, Inn I should say. I was happy with my stay ffor the $50/night.
It’s only good for singles to stay over there,, but definitely not for families with kids ,,, it’s good spot to get anything and everything,, if u know what a mean
The property is conveniently close to great restaurants, clubs, bars, coffee shops, and various clothing and shoe stores.
You should remove this very bad place from your app, Dirty room and hotel
The only good about that hotel is the receptionist Mr.khdeer he was so nice and helpful otherwise everything not at the standard
Fair place
Nice location, clean, fully equipped bathroom ..
Stay away from this hotel, it’s very dirty, the bathroom is disgusting, so as the bed, I had to sleep on my own jacket because the sheets and pillows were still unwashed and smelled really bad. seems to have been used forever. Pillows need to be replaced with new ones asap. Now talking about staff, the staff at the reception refused to check me in hour before. I asked for toilet paper and ironing and never got that. Don’t let the pictures fool you
Nice location
was too good big thanks for all staff specially barsh at front disk
Dirty,bed very small,service very slow

It was a nice and cozy place to stay overnights. I was going there only nights to sleep, it was quiet and clean however the towel was not white but they were washed and clean. In general, it was excellent and I will go there again

Lovely stay but ....
Hotel was clean and neat, very close to Istiklal street however the only part that was dissapointing is the lift starts on the first floor not on the ground floor so we had to do some heavy lifting to the first floor.
The room I paid is totally not worthy.
loved the beautiful rooms but did not enjoy the breakfast

We suppose to check in at 14 but we had to wait until 3.30 for the room wasn't ready to check in. Elevator didn't work either but it was easy to take stairs. Location was really great, near to everything.

Staff are fantastic. We had fun chatting with them. There are many sounds in this city and it’s up to you whether you enjoy them or not. The area is vibrant with people culture foods and music. Loved it all. We will be back.
