The hotel has a superb location. It is a short walk to main tourist attractions such as the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia. The staff at the registration desk were very hospitable, charmed me with their kindness and helpfulness.
The rooms felt small, and I noticed the cleaning was not thorough. Our toothbrushes cup disappeared and was not replaced. The cleaning lady did not change the linings, she just flipped them!
