My room was a Double or Twin Room. It included air conditioning. The location was great. I walked easily to main historical sites. Staff helped organize my airport transport.

key monuments clean bathroom breakfast options
The hotel is near key monuments. It is a few steps away from major sights. The rooms are super clean. I appreciated the large, clean bathroom. The room rate included a generous breakfast. The staff showed kindness and helpfulness. The location is very good. It is just a few minutes from Sultanahmet and Hagia Sophia. Convenient transportation options are available too. The T1 tram line is nearby with Sultanahmet as the closest stop. I appreciated the breakfast options. There were plenty of choices available. Staff at the front desk speak good English. I found them very polite.
One of my rooms faced the roof, I could smell smoke.

The staff at the reception were very nice. I arrived early, and they allowed me to check in before the standard time. Breakfast offered a diverse and tasty selection.
The locking mechanism for the front door did not function well. The keycard entry often got stuck when trying to open it. The toilet door seemed faulty as water leaked out during showers since there was no proper seal.
