This hotel is located on an alleyway by İstiklal Street, the main street for food and shopping in Taksim Square. Great location and quiet room despite being so close to one of the busiest streets in the world. The room was good, comfortable bed, but the shower pressure and temperature was continuously variable, scalding me at times. The lift was slow and the staff were just ok, nothing to praise about. The aircon failed for a few hours but the staff tried to fixed as soon as possible. When I asked about the mini fridge not working since I arrived, I was told it is just for “storage”! So if you’re looking for cold drinks in the hot summer weather, forget about it! The hotel is ok, but I still recommend it due its location. Amenities and staff could do with little improvement.
