Nice hotel for good price ! Next to Taksim square, about 5 minutes walk. Friendly staff
It was for 1+1 nights.. reception was good and crew like the Tunisian guy is nice.. the noise from street during the night was high especially songs.. they asked me for extra money without receipt!! In general the price is OK with service in such a perfect location..
Nice budget hotel right near Taksim Square. Though near Taksim, it was in a back street so was pretty quiet. The room I was given was spacious and clean. The bathroom was modern looking and everything worked well. There was a kettle with coffee and tea in the room. The staff was very friendly and helpful. There is no breakfast restaurant at the hotel itself, but they can order a hot breakfast to be delivered to your room every morning with €8 extra per day, and the breakfast is very copious. As it is near Taksim, you are within minutes to restaurant, bars, shopping, public transport and walking distance to airport shuttle. Recommended if you are looking for a clean and affordable place to stay.
Rude receptionist and bad behaving with customers, location is very bad we had to walk for 10 minutes carrying our luggage from the road to get to the hotel rooms very small. Not as expected and reviewed by some customers.
