    Nothing - the staff made this an amazing stay, they treat you like one of their own shout out to ömer, Mohammad Yasin and the other staff members for making our stay an amazing one

    This hotel probably has one of the best views in Turkey - having breakfast in the terrace is an experience don’t forget to climb the steps once you get to the terrace for a better view

    I think it they should start a rooftop bar and resturant for the boarders.

    The room was good. The view from the terrace of Istanbul was awesome. Also the location as every location was within walking distance.

    Breakfast was fine but it felt a little limited after staying for a few days.

    This is a very nice little hotel located close to the top sights in the historic core of Istanbul. All of the staff is very friendly and helpful. The rooms aren't fancy but they are comfortable and a great value for the location. The rooftop terrace is really wonderful, with great views over the city.

    Great location, closed to everything. Awesome view on the rooftop. And the rooftop was open 24 hours. The room was clean. The breakfast was good.

    Fantastic location, family friendly hotel

    The noise level within the hotel. As the staircase is all open and central, you can hear everyone climbing up and down. The doors were also heavy and were quite loud when they closed, especially when you are sharing the hotel with inconsiderate travellers who don’t seem to care about being quiet for other people. NOT the hotel or staff’s fault though!!

    The location was fantastic, close to Hagia Sophia and the blue mosque as well as trams. The beds were very comfortable but the pillows could have been a bit firmer. The staff were all wonderful and although the breakfast wasn’t what we were used to, they were more than willing to make fresh omelettes for us daily.

    Nothing comes to mind.

    The location was excellent. Very quiet. About a 15 minute walk to Hagia Sophia, Grand Bazaar, Spice Bazaar or cruise docks. Very friendly and helpful staff who spoke good English and were always on duty. Helped us make restaurant reservations and negotiate a price with a taxi. We were in the Sophia suite on the top floor with huge picture windows on two sides which looked out on the Topkapi Palace, Hagia Sophia and the Golden Horn and in the distance the Bosphorus.

    The staff were super friendly and helpful and their hospitality was overwhelming. The breakfast options were great with fresh local vegies, homemade pastries, authentic Turkish condiments and a lot more! The location was great, with main attractions and businesses for shopping and groceries within walking distances. In fact it was our second time staying at Agora Life. It was just a superb experience and we'll definitely stay there again just for the service and location!
