Guest Ratings & Reviews
The hotel room was alright, a bit small for two people and not as clean as I'd like. The staff members were mostly kind and courteous, except for one standout helpful person named Luqman. On the downside, there were issues with the shower railing breaking off easily. The location was quite interesting, situated in the wholesale shoe and purse district, uphill from major tourist spots like the Grand Bazaar and Blue Mosque. However, it was noisy due to the busy surroundings. The dining experience left something to be desired, with limited breakfast options and some trouble with food availability in the morning. Overall, it was an okay stay near the city center.
The hotel was disappointing in terms of room cleanliness and size, with limited space between beds. The service was not very hospitable, and even the shower railing was poorly maintained. On the upside, the location was excellent despite being noisy at times. The dining experience left much to be desired with food running out early, though there was a lovely atmosphere. Overall, the facilities were decent.
The hotel is situated in an interesting location, uphill to main tourist attractions like the Grand Bazaar and Blue Mosque. The rooms are tiny and grubby, but those ending in X02 and X03 are just big enough for two people and a bag. The service was average, not particularly friendly, and the shower railing was taped to the wall. The outside restaurants nearby add charm to the location, but the steep road can be a challenge. The dining experience was poor with powdered orange juice and instant coffee every day. Overall, a mixed experience with some positives and negatives.
My stay at the hotel was overall pleasant. The room was comfortable and clean, but on the small side. The staff was friendly and helpful, making my experience enjoyable. The location was convenient, although the uphill walk to main tourist attractions might not suit everyone's preferences. The dining experience had some drawbacks, with limited options at breakfast. However, the facilities were satisfactory, adding value to my stay.

My stay at this hotel had its ups and downs. The rooms were small and not aesthetically appealing, with no convenient place for the crib, but they were at least clean and comfortable. The service was lacking friendliness, although one gentleman did provide helpful city guidance in English. The location was interesting, uphill to major tourist sites and close to shopping streets, but not without issues like the broken shower railing.

The hotel offers a great view of the sea but the rooms are very small and the bed throws and curtains are not pleasing. The service is lacking in coordination but there is one helpful staff member.
