Single room had upgrades, it was decent sized and fashionable. The bathroom was clean, with a hairdryer, a walk-in shower, and bath sheets. The breakfast was large, the check in was early. The location of this hotel adjacent to a popular tourist area surrounded by restaurants, restaurants and all the major attractions, and the very centre of Istanbul was absolutely perfect and exceptionally nice. Also, an Emigration gallery was 2 km away.

The breakfast was free with a remarkable view, a juicy watermelon and cheese, the restaurant was nice. The room I booked was a decent size and compact with heater, a super view from the window to the Bosporus and smelled like cigarette as expected. The location was excellent and stunning, a 10-15 minute walking distance from an Ottoman - era Friday mosque.
