A huge effort must be made regarding cleaniness. I was mislead by pictures and comments, but it wasn't as expected. The good point about the hotel is the location that is in the middle of Istiklal street.

It is a small hotel , but comfortable and economic. easy access to everywhere near Taxim . Isteklal street is 1 minute walk , Taxim square is 5 minutes walk . Easy access to all transportation. The room was a bit small Or maybe my room was small . I stayed on 3rd floor . But the good thing is that the rooms are sound proof . And air-conditioned . I will definitely stay there again . Oh by way the for those who travel with car , this property don’t have car park nearby , but there are few paid car parkings about 5 minutes by walking distance.

The room was large and the bed was comfortable. As noted in previous reviews the are is loud in the evenings, but we were so exhausted from gallivanting that we slept despite the noise. The staff were kind and helpful. The area is quite lovely. There are tons of restaurants and cafes and shopping nearby. For the price we would definitely stay there again.

Very small hotel located in Taksim. Lots of shopping and restaurants nearby. Rooms can be noisy as hotel surrounded by restaurants in the pub. At night time you can hear the music and people until eight hours. It was not very clean and needed remodeling.

Çok merkezi, temiz, hesaplı

Seçim yaparken İstanbulun trafik yoğunluğunu yaşamadan gitemk istediğimiz yerlere yakın temiz hesaplı bir yer kriteriyle yola çıktık. Hepsini karşıladı. Girişi biraz küçüktü. Odalar da çyle ama zaten sadece uyuymak için kullandığımız için gayet yeterliydi. Personel gayet nazik, güler yüzlü ve yardıımeverdi. İlk gece klimamızda bir sorun oldu biraz üşüdük ama söyleyince hemen müdahele ettiler. Kıızm ve arkadaşıyla 3 kişilik bir odada kaldık. Çok olumlu bir izlenimle ayrıldık. Yeri çok kolay ve merkezi. Bou lokasyon için geldiğimizde yine tercih ederiz.
