Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
This small and cozy property was tucked in an alley way just behind the Hagia Sophia. The breakfast offered was a pleasant variety. It is a 5-10 minute walk from the grand area of the Hagia Sophia and Sultanahmet mosques. There is a small convenience shop just around the corner. It is steps away from the city tram, bus stops, shopping and restaurants.

For the price this hotel is very well located to the main sights and tram stops. Despite being located in a very busy area, the hotel itself is on a little quiet road and it was peaceful all night.

Inexpensive hotel right down the street from the Hagie Sophia. Hotel was clean, breakfast was good, staff was very friendly. At that price point I was expecting less, so I was very happy with this hotel. Would stay here again.

Small boutique hotel strategically located near the most famous attractions and walkable distance from most places. Good breakfast on a nice terrace with nice views. Couple of things to improve: air con wasn’t efficient and hot water at busy periods was like dripping our (lack of pressure, a pump should be installed). Other than that, free coffee and biscuits offered between 5-7pm Would definitely recommend
