    Basic Breakfast, no specific negative points.

    Perfect Location. Adjoining the iconic Blue Mosque, 4 to 5 minutes walk to Hagia Sofia, Hafiz Mustafa, numerous Cafes, 2 minutes walk to Arasta bazaar, 9 minutes walk to Hurem Hammam, 10 minutes walk to Topkapi palace and 15 minutes walk to Grand Bazaar. Essentially close to all popular attractions. Very helpful staff especially Fatih. Beautiful view of blue mosque and bosphorus from breakfast area. Clean room with small fridge.

    The room window actually facing a school window. This might create some problem especially if the school is at session.

    The location is very close to the blue mosque. Literally just a stone throw away. Equipped with a lift and the room i stayed in also have a small balcony. The breakfast was served on top of the hotel.. Very nice experience with great view of the sea. Just enjoy countless cups of tea and watch the world goes by.

    The breakfast was good. Had lots of variety to make my tummy happy. The location of the hotel is exceptional. Walking distance to most of the tourist place like Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia, Topkapi palace, The Grand Bazar. Overall the experience was good. The staff were excellent.

    Double bed was made by combing two single beds together which was not good. Some mosquito bites if you will open balcony door although we requested to spray but don't know what happened to that request.

    Blue Mosque and Sea View, amazing breakfast although you need to be there at 8AM otherwise some guests were on mission to finish everything. Nice sea view from breakfast location, kids enjoyed feeding birds. Chef and cooking staff was very humble (need google translator if you have some customization.

    The pillows were really uncomfortable. The room is very small but we were ready for it and stayed only for one night so it was fine.

    Nice little hotel in the historical center, so all that a regular tourist needs is in a walking distance. The street is not busy at all so it’s quiet at night, except for the calls to prayer that happen at night of very early in the morning (some people have trouble going to back sleep because of them, but I personally was okay with that). The employees were really nice and polite!

    At the breakfast buffet, I noticed some unprofessional behavior from the staff. While we were eating, they were talking to each other in russian and two of them were eating while serving us the food. This was highly unprofessional and unethical behavior.

    Location is perfect. Everyday they did cleaning at the room. The breakfast is not bad and it is served at the rooftop with a nice view. The man at the reception is helpful. They offer taxi transfer from the airport with a good price.
