Perfect Location
The best part of my stay was the hotel staff, in particular Gökhan. Warm and friendly they made me feel like I was “coming home” when I go back to the hotel. Excellent location.
Hotel itself was ok and nicely situated near Taksim Square. Staff were friendly, and even though we got up late most days the staff always cleaned room once we asked. Room was small but was cosy. Wifi didnt work. Biggest issue we had was lack of sleep due to the many clubs around from which you could hear loud music until around 4am every morning. Then you could hear the clean up truck cleaning the streets.. Big problem for many hotels of this stretch.
I particularly like the cleanliness and friendly staff. Special thanks to the staff at the reception who speaks English, he's very kind . Do not let the reception fool you. The rooms are squeaky clean
The location of the hotel is excellent. The room was clean, comfortable and equipped perfectly. The staff were too friendly and helpful. I would highly recommend this hotel

I booked the economy double room and I had ensured that my room would have city view. BUT when I arrived and see my room I was shocked.It was a dark room! They said that none of the rooms have city view.I changed my room but I had to pay more.
I don't suggest this hotel to those one who can't stand the noisy place.
The breakfast is not that I expected. It was so simple and routine.
The refrigerator was empty and there is not any tea bag, coffee and chocolate in room.
The staff were amazing, specially the young gentleman at the reception! Can’t thank him enough for being so kind and so sweet and always helping us with everything from room service to weighing our bags to also helping us get around Istanbul! Overall great experience at this hotel however, they could do better with the cleaning and making sure all facilities in the room work eg. fridge, tv etc.
we went to the hotel that we booked in advance
at 9 am one of the staff told us that the room is not ready yet come back at 12 we went there at 12 other staff sad come back after 14:00 we ask is there a room
they sad yess don’t worry your room will be ready after 14:00 after 16:00we went there again they sad they don’t have a room in this hotel send us to different ona which wasn’t located where we wanted and room was wery bad condition. after that they showed a single or
cancel booking at 17:00 o’clock in taksim with 2 luggage no accommodation there is no number
to call no one to speak no thanks for your services no more hotels com big disappointment
Location is great.
However, you dont get basic things like water or tea bags for free. Rooms are extremely small.

OK budget hotel.
The hotel staff were very helpful and pleasant, and the breakfast was very good.it is very close to taksim square and public transport. Single bedroom was cramped, but a big bathroom and full sized shower. Overall a reasonable hotel for the money.
the worst experience I ever had. never ever saw this much bad service and disrespectful staff. first of all, after we booked our rooms which were two deluxe balcony rooms we did ring them 3 times to confirm and they said definetly yes. we arrived there and they gave us one balcony bedroom which was really small and the other room was with no balcony. when we said we paid for two same rooms the guy said you r lucky to find rooms as u did not even have reservations. we told him we rang u 3 times and u confirmed the bokking throigh our card but he said just bcoz they did not get the payment it means its not confirmed. the second room was ry small ac was nkt working very small window. it was like a sauna, when we went down to complain about ac he said its not summer time to use ac and he can not do anything for this. first night was like a nightmare. in the morning bfast was another shock, the man who was responsiple from bfast touching bread cheese n other food with his hand, no health and safety at all. our friends also had another problem which was a lick at the toilet from the ceiling, when we were talking about all this things the same guy who was usualy at the reception popped in the dialog and he started to say u can not make these comments, i told him iam not having this conversation with u pls step back. he continued and he crossed his limits. proper asbo guy. so we had to leave hotel which we were supposed to stay 4 days more. i do not recommend this place at all.
When we arrived at the hotel they told us it was full. I had booked 5 weeks earlier. Then they took us to a nearby hotel and tried to dump us in a room without a window claiming it was all full. Then we were told that they can just give us a refund. After much arguing they gave us a regular room. The room was fine but the bathroom was moldy and smelly.
