10/10 Exceptional

This is exactly as advertised! Hosts were very kind, offering tea and coffee all day as well as the complimentary breakfast. Perfect location for getting to all major attractions in the city as well as lots of dining options nearby. Would definitely recommend as an affordable stay in Istanbul!

They charged me 30 pounds extra as commission and tax which was unjustified. AC was not working. Breakfast was good.

Location is great but hygiene, furniture, service, room size, are poor. No elevators and very narrow stairways. Hygiene is on the downside, Always a weird smell.
Jean-Pierre, 5-night trip

2/10 Poor

Dirty, not maintained, poor condition and service.

Dirty, bad service, hot, no AC. It’s a hostel so no amenities, no cleaning items, nothing. The terrace shown in the picture is not available for that use. There are few tables, not cleaned, no light available, not clean….

Temizlik her gün söylememize rağmen yapılacağı söylenip asla yapılmadı. Kesinlikle temizlik beklemeyin. Klimalı diye yazarken 3 odanın sadece 1inde klima vardı

4/10 Fair

Très bien placé, personnels sympathiques et belle vue depuis la terrasse, mais c’est les seuls points positifs. La propreté laisse à désirer (toilette pas propre, coton tige sale sur le sol de la salle de bain…), tout est cassé, … pas génial.
Camille, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

The bathroom never was cleaned. Our bedroom wasn’t ready. We had to move to other bedroom. Nobody was there when we arrived. The stairs are very poorly built, if you go with the elderly it will be very difficult for them to climb. If you go with heavy suitcases you will suffer a lot there. There is no elevator.

Das Hotel ist eine Katastrophe Sauberkeit überhaupt nicht gegeben Personal hat keinen Zeit um die Zimmer zu reinigen Ein Beispiel Toiletten Papier war alle mußten selbst welches organisieren aus dem Marktladen von schräg gegenüber Wer nur Schlafen möchte und sich frisch machen möchte ist in dem Hostel gut aufgehoben Das Frühstück ist auch eine einzige Katastrophe Sind immer außerhalb Frühstück len gegangen!

Buena ubicación pero es muy básico

Es un hostal muy básico, igualmente el desayuno, entre las cosas buenas esta la ubicación. El servicio de recepción no trabaja 24/7 para que lo tomen en cuenta. Es un lugar prácticamente para ir a dormir solamente.

Det var et ok sted ifht til prisen. Men rengøringen kunne have været lidt bedre på badeværelset.

Memnuniyetimiz hakkında

Otelde 18 kişi konakladık. Otel hizmetlerini ve otel çalışanları tutumunu çok beğendik. İstanbul maratonu için istanbul daydık ve koşu öncesi söz verdirdiği gibi kahvaltıyı 06:00-06:30 arası hazırladı ve problem yaşamadan maraton transfer otobüslerine yetiştik. Bundan sonraki koşularda ilk tercihimiz bu otel olacak. İlgi ve hassasiyet için teşekkürler

Comfy bed and good breakfast but the location is not the greatest,the toilet was broken and unclean, facilities need to improve the room i got was totally messy and unclean, finally the rooftop "the trace" has great view.

8/10 Very good

Gets the job done, but nothing special.

It's a very basic hostel, it's not much but you get what you paid for. Pros: Nearby to sights. Easy to get to airport via bus. Great views from roof. Friendly staff. Cons: Bathrooms are not clean and smell horrible. Rooms are cramped and stuffy.

Buen hotel para viajeros

El personal increíble, muy amables y te ayudan, cambie 1 de las habitaciones en mi entrada ya q las 2 habitaciones q reservé no tenían baño privado y pague por ello 50€ de más, las escaleras no son muy cómodas para personas mayores ya q son altas, estrechas y en espiral, en toda la semana en las 2 habitaciones no entraron a limpiar y nosotros cambiábamos las sábanas y toallas, salvo esto las vistas de las terrazas espectaculares de la ciudad y Sultanahmet, la mejor zona de todo el centro ya todo esta muy muy cerca, en una semana solo cogimos el transporte 1 vez, gestionaron el transporte del aeropuerto al hotel y la vuelta y muy cómodo, el desayuno me gustó mucho, aunque algún dulce faltaría pero igualmente muy bueno, el personal lo mejor, muy amables, simpáticos y atentos.

10/10 Exceptional

Bastante bueno!

El hotel es bastante lindo, tiene su propio restaurante y una terraza increíble, me quede en una habitación privada con baño y estuvo vatsante bien, cómoda y limpia, el acceso a las habitaciones no es muy cómodo ya que son grandes escalones en un pasillo muy estrello, así que no lo recomiendo para personas de edad o personas con discapacidad. Por todo lo demás estuvo muy bien la estadía, la ubicación es estupenda, a solo unos pasos de el bazar y a unas cuantas cuadras de la mesquita! Todo estaba limpio y la atención fue buena, sin embargo el desayuno podría mejorar, tiene poca variedad, unas cuantas verduras, pan y cereal! No obstante volvería a hospedarme ahí, muy buena relación precio/ beneficio
