My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. On one hand, the rooms felt a bit outdated and small for the price paid, but the balcony with views of the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia was a real treat, especially since it was quieter compared to the other side of the hotel.

I had a great stay at this hotel. The rooms were clean and cozy, but lacked a working air conditioner and a fridge. The service was excellent, especially from Mustafa and Sekan. The location was superb, right between Aya Sofya and the Blue Mosque. The dining experience was good, with a variety of traditional Turkish breakfast delicacies. Overall, a pleasant experience with a few minor drawbacks.
