Some guests have mentioned that there may be discrepancies between the room view they paid for and the view they actually received.

The location was it's number one asset.
It was trying to be a boutique hotel but didn't quite make it. Our room looked out onto a rubbish dump and the fixtures and fittings were poorly done.

Brilliant location, helpful and friendly staff. Excellent views of the Blue Mosque from breakfast area. Not a lot of noise, nice view of Bosphorous from our room.
There are no lifts in this four story building and the narrow stairs would be difficult for some travellers - this was no problem for us but older or physically challenged travellers should take it into consideration.

Location is great but there are at least another 50 hotels around it most which are better. Thats where the positive ends
A very dirty place. Do not clean rooms. Do not pick up their dirty dishes. Came back one day to find someone else's feces floating in the flush. Rooms smell dingy like a wet dog. Possibly mold.

Amazing location near the Blue Mosque, allowing for stunning views from the rooms. Attentive and helpful staff, always willing to go the extra mile to ensure a pleasant stay. Clean and comfortable rooms, with spacious bathrooms and ample storage space. Great value for money, offering a boutique hotel experience at affordable prices.
No complaints, everything was satisfactory.

I liked the convenience of the location and the view of the Sultan Ahmet mosque. There was only a tiny glimpse of the sea.
The traffic was routed on the street right in front of the hotel. There was a constant stream of busses and autos beginning early in the morning until late in the evening. The breakfast was not fresh unlike most Turkish breakfasts. The stairs were very narrow. The telephone did not work well and I was charged an exhorbitant fee for local phone calls.

The view from my room was incredible, I could see the ocean and the city skyline. The breakfast was tasty with many options to choose from. The hotel is in a great location, very close to popular tourist attractions and easy to find.
My room was very small and not very clean. The shower had mold and was not working properly.

I recently had a wonderful stay at a hotel located right behind a famous mosque in a quiet neighborhood. The location was perfect, with plenty of cafes and restaurants nearby. The staff went above and beyond to ensure my stay was pleasant, providing personalized service that fit my budget. The rooms were clean, comfortable, and had great views of the mosque. Basic amenities were provided, and the breakfast, although simple, was delicious. I was impressed with the attention to detail and the value for money.
All was satisfactory.
