Its location was magnificent, right by the Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia, Topkapi Palace and the Grand Bazaar, museums, mosques, Grand bazaar, shops and restaurants and the major tourist attractions. Visited a public square, located at a medium distance from the venue. The bedroom was neat and new-fashioned. A roll-in shower, a hairdryer, and dressing gowns were very handy.
