broken fridge

bad service

the location was decent, but I’m shocked nobody cared about our comfort. the fridge didn’t work, it’s almost as if they don’t want us to enjoy our stay. I expected some complimentary treats for the inconvenience, but apparently that’s too much to ask. breakfast was a mess, like they were trying to ruin the day.

Couple's getaway worth it

Had an amazing experience at this place, the view was just fine! Every morning, breakfast on the roof with that view, it's lovely.

It wasn't exactly budget-friendly, but you get what you pay for.

I had a fantastic 8-night stay! The rooftop terrace was breathtaking with a stunning view, perfect for reading at night. Breakfast was fresh and delicious, although I wish they had fried eggs. Highly recommend it!

spacious room

noisy environment

The sea-view room was beautifully designed with high ceilings and offered great views over Galata Bridge. The rooftop terrace is a fantastic spot for enjoying breakfast while taking in panoramic views of Istanbul.

Despite the charming atmosphere, the noise from the street was quite disruptive at night, making sleep difficult. earplugs might be necessary for a restful night.

stunning rooftop views

room maintenance issues

The location offers unparalleled access to major attractions, making sightseeing incredibly convenient. We enjoyed stunning views of the Galata Tower, and the rooftop terrace provided breathtaking sunrise moments that set the tone for our adventurous days. The spacious rooms added to our comfort, allowing us to relax after long days of exploring.

Our room showed signs of wear, particularly with some peeling on the walls.

street noise

Fantastic location! I loved the easy access to all the sights and the stunning rooftop view kept me entertained. Had a charming vibe with character and comfort, making it a delightful home base.

But dear Lord, the street noise could wake a sleeping beauty! Not quite the restful escape I dreamed of. earplugs are your new best friend!

Comfortable Stay with a Few Hiccups

Overall, we had a wonderful stay. The rooftop terrace offered breathtaking sunset views, perfect for evening relaxation. However, the fridge issue in our comfort double room required a workaround, but the staff's willingness to help with our medicine was appreciated. Pro tip for future guests—explore nearby restaurants for great local meals!
