The hotel is extremely well located considering both access to public transportation and being walking distance from the best restaurants area. In overall the hotel is good but there were aspects that frustrated me : 1) the staff speaks poor english so it was very hard to get help to go around and book restaurants. 2) I asked for a non-smoking room and despite that I got a smoking room - even if the receptionist insisted that it was a non-smoking room. After the first night that I barely manged to sleep because of the smell the same receptionist "confessed" that she had no other room available.

Nice place to stay, in general. Relatively inexpensive, clean, and centrally located. They should, however, fix the address on their website; it is incorrect and caused a bit of confusion. The water pressure was astounding.

Very convenient for shops and restaurants on Istiklal Caddesi yet fairly quiet because it is on a side street with not much traffic. About five minutes walk from the funicular which takes you down to the tram line linking many of the major sites. Staff were friendly and helpful.

The receptionist (female) was so friendly, thank you very much! Nice view over the bosporus!

Very nice place. Two min walk from Istikal str., main street of the new city. Close to synagogues (walking distance to at least three). Very tasty breakfast with enough choice for adults and children.
