    The hotel is conveniently located near a metro station that leads straight to the airport. Just a short walk away, we were able to easily access T1 Aksaray station, making it convenient for exploring the city.

    Absolutely nothing to say about dislikes. This hotel exceeded our expectations.

    I didn't like it. I was supposed to stay 3 nights and I changed hotels after the first one.

    Staff was not very kind. Room furniture and facilities are very very old (not reallly visible in photos). Just one blanket that not covered all bed. It is not really far from center but in a dark and secondary street.

    Although not luxurious, i found this hotel to be excellent value for money. The room was clean and cozy, perfect for a comfortable stay, especially during the cold weather. The hotel staff were friendly and always willing to help, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The location is convenient, with easy access to both Taksim and Sultanahmet via nearby tram and metro stations.

    No significant improvements needed, everything was alright.

    This hotel really impressed me with its attention to detail and value for money. The rooms were recently renovated and looked exactly like the photos on their website. The location was fantastic, as it was within walking distance of a metro station that led straight to the airport. The staff provided excellent service and the basic amenities were all in good condition. I also appreciated the option of having a room with three single beds, which was perfect for my group.

    All aspects of my stay were perfectly fine.

    The hotel is conveniently located near a metro station that provides easy access to the airport, making it a great choice for those needing to catch a flight. the hotel is within walking distance of T1 Aksaray station, allowing guests to easily explore the city's popular sites.

    The hotel lacks some modern amenities, such as a safety box, which could be a downside for added security.

Secondly, the attention to detail in the rooms was impressive, with basic amenities provided and even three single beds for added convenience. Additionally, the staff at the hotel were friendly and provided good service, making my stay comfortable.
