Terrible!
This is not a 4* hotel. I’d give it a 1. Breakfast buffet is no buffet. There’s hardly anything there. We’d have to go out to purchase breakfast even though we paid for room with breakfast. Service was absolutely horrendous. We asked for a rollaway bed but they refused and said there were none and asked me to pay 20 euros for an extra bed - not to mention the tiniest room in which an extra bed would be mean no walking space at all. I then called the manager myself who somehow managed to get the so called non existing rollaway bed into to my room. Note on hotels.com description, it’s mentioned you get free rollaway beds but all They want us to make money for everything. Wouldn’t recommend this hotel at all!

Do not recommend
This was the worst value hotel I have ever stayed at. Although the air conditioning was on, it didn’t work properly, probably due to a lack of coolant. It just emitted a smell without cooling the room. Room was so dark. The outdoor pool was under construction, so we couldn’t use it on the first day. We used the indoor pool for one day, and my child developed an eye infection. The manager couldn’t remember when the water was last changed and was not very responsive. The staff service was also poor. Only one older staff member provided good service, while the rest were rude and unhelpful. Pros: The location is good.

The only thing I like about the hotel is the location, very close to the Sirkeci Marmaray station. Other than that it was a total disappointment and terrible value for money. In terms of cleanliness I once found a cockroach in my room, I once came to the room and found my pillow with no pillow case and I once found a hair in the cheese plate in the breakfast buffet. Speaking of the breakfast buffet, it was the most disappointing. I almost went out to get breakfast elsewhere every day of my stay because there is no variety in the buffet and nothing is inviting! The staff are not the warm kind, they might get you what you need but again they might just night. The room is not small but not spacious, however it’s the dimmest hotel room I’ve ever been to, to the extent that I almost went to buy a lamp to put in the room to brighten it up a little bit. I wouldn’t stay there again and wouldn’t recommend it.

Positiv feedback
Absolut bästa hotellet jag har bott pa, där jag har känt mig verkligen välkomnad och även bra bemött av personalen. Natt personalen som har arbetat har varit väldigt snälla, jag har aldrig sanningen känt sahär men riktigt bra gäng och väl bra service har jag fätt. Natt personalen som arbetade pa receptionen är Samet och äldre mannen. Hotellet skick i rummet för tre personer har inte varit det basta men att bara ta sig till hotellet och bli bemött av sa bra och positiv service har varit väldigt bra för mig som har gjort att jag har känt mig hemma. Nägot jag verkligen kommer att boka hit nästa gảng för enbart nattpersonalen som jobbade!

Daha önce bir çok severek kaldığım lokasyonu dan dolayı hayran olduğum yer ilk kez ailem ile kalmak istedim lakin, inşaatın ortasında sürekli elektirgin gitti bir zamanda kahvaltı kalitesinin düştüğü birana denk gelmek beni çok üzdü.. bu durum otel yönetimi yoksa hotels.com un kabahatimi bilmem lakin tadilat durumunda haberdar edilmemek kusurlu bir ürün almakdan farksız.
