The bathroom could have been cleaner, the hair dryer doesn't work and the bedside lights are broken. There are no toiletries in the bathroom and several power sockets are broken. No tea or cups are provided in the room, although there are glasses.

We loved the area in Sultanahmet, close to the big attractions of Istanbul. The hotel is small and friendly, but not in any way luxurious! The breakfast included in the price is very nice. Our room (no 12) on the top floor, of what had been once a roof terrace, had a fabulous view out to the sea of Marmara and to the Blue Mosque, which is stunningly lit at night. (Beware, however,that the top rooms have very low ceilings and many opportunities to bump your head.)

The room had a bit mouldy scent. And the bathroom was really small. The shower "spot" is actually a small hole.

The location of the hotel is just great. It is a safe area and you are 500 meters away from Sultanahmet mosque and Hagia Sofia. Just wonderful.

A light by the bed would have been good.

The staff! They were great! Shout out for Ibrahim on reception who was very helpful, knowledgeable and kindly loaned me his metro card (I left it at reception when I checked out). Location is perfect, just a few minutes walk to Haghia Sophia the Blue Mosque, Gülhane Park and Eminönü ferry station. My room (12) was at the top of the stairs and had amazing seaviews. No lift, but worth the climb - could be difficult with lots of, or heavy baggage and if you're tall, you might hit your head going in and out of the doorway. A fridge and kettle in the room were a bonus. Breakfast was simple and sufficient. Lots of restaurants near by - recommend the Doy Doy restaurant a short walk away for good food and fair prices. I would definitely stay here again.

The property is not easily accessible by public transport. The receptionist either did not have a map of the city or did not want to give us one, instead some guy offered us to "sit down for a while" so that he "explained us everything", which we did not need. There were no hangers for overcoats, so we had to put them on one of the armchairs in the living room. There was no towel for dishes in the kitchen. The boiler worked in such a way that it was quite difficult to get water in the bathroom and kitchen which was neither boiling hot nor cold. In one of the bathrooms one part of the shower was broken so that itwas not posssible to adjust the height of the shower-head; in the other, the sewage system got clogged on the fourth day.

This is a small property very close to the Sultanahmet Mosque and other main sights. We got a large apartment with two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a living room and a fully equiped kitchen, located in a building two minutes walking distance from the reception. There was a microvawe, a fridge, a dishwasher, and in one of the bathrooms there were a washing mashine and a dryer. In the rooms there was enough space and light, as well as air conditioning. The wi-fi connection was quite fine. The staff were so nice that they even brought us my wife's lost suitcase when it was brought to them from the airport.

We booked an 'Economy Double Room' as from the pictures it looked like would be enough for us (couple). However, the room is way too small - so small there was no space for us to put our baggage and make few steps, and the bed was also small, so I think this room is enough for a single person staying 2-3 days. The covers were too small for a queen-sized bed and a couple (140x200). We also expected a better, more turkish breakfast.

The staff and the manager were kind enough to let us use a bigger room (we paid a small amount additionally). The rooms were clean, but the hotel is, in fact, old and 'antique'. The location is excellent.

Location is exceptional. Aya Sofia and Blue Mosque are just around the corner. Free parking is available on the street and of course no issues at all. The staff is very kind and helpful

It is an old tiny house and what comes with it. Not for aesthetic-sensitive or those spending much time in hotel.

The location was near areas of interest and in a quiet street. Bed was good and air, slept extremely well. Very helpful stuff. Indeed good for sole traveler to have a good sleep.

It's not really the direct fault of the hotel, but the shuttle we hired from them tried to get extra money from us with a faster and more expensive route, to which we said no.

Booked the top floor with a wonderful view of the blue most and the sea. The staff are very friendly and helpful. Breakfast is included and it is in a cute little terrace outside.

The personal is very kind and helpful. The hotel is very Close to Grand Bazar. We had a parking lot in front of the hotel. We had breakfast at the hotel served by a nice woman and the breakfast was tasty and fresh. We had a clean room and was cleaned every morning. The place is safe and quiet. If you want any informations, you will receive them fast. The owner makes tours with the boat and other entertainments.

The rooms are small. The toilet seat was wonky. They didn’t supply enough toilet paper . To flush the toilet it only had enough power to flush once then you needed to wait for 10 minutes to flush again. This was incredibly frustrating.There wasn’t a cup. You are not supposed to drink the water in Turkey. Not because it is bad but because it is tastes terrible but no water bottle was supplied, which would have been nice. The stairs are terrible if you need to drag a large suitcase up. I heard the staff talking on the phone at the reception because the noise carries

The location was amazing. The staff lovely. The breakfast lovely. Customer service fabulous
