Melisa

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Don’t stay here. The rooms need a deep clean to say the least. There was weird black hairs on our sheets when we first arrived, open used shampoo bottles in our bathroom and the halls had a weird odor. The staff was extremely loud in the mornings and would talk very loudly and play music around 8 am. Breakfast was poor and you couldn’t tell the difference between used and unused silverware and cups/glasses. The only good thing about this place is its central location otherwise it’s not worth the stay or money.

Nous avons eu un très bon dîner sur le toit avec vue sur la Mosquée Bleue.(-20% pour les clients de l'hôtel) Une chambre avec vue sur la mer avec balcon, le directeur est très serviable. Petit bémol, il faut encore faire quelques efforts au niveau propreté pour éviter les moisissures dans la pièce d'eau, le sol et rample escalier proche de la cuisine, un congélateur mis devant l'accès à la salle de petit déjeuner.

Biz çok memnun kaldık. İkinci defa Olimpic Otele geldik ve pişman olmadık. Odalar gayet temizdi. Kahvaltı güzeldi. Çalışanlar da çok anlayışlı ve yardımseverdi. Ulaşım çok kolaydı. Bir daha ki İstanbul ziyaretimizde tekrar Olimpic Otelde konaklamak isteriz.
