The scrambled eggs were a dream—light and fluffy! Plus, we discovered incredible local spots like Dedeoglu Baklavaci for sweets just 0.2 km away and Sipsak Fish Restaurant at 0.2 km that left our taste buds dancing. The staff, especially Mazlum and Emre, were super accommodating, making our stay memorable.

The room’s photos fooled us—it's cozier than it looks! The kitchen situation is more for show than for cooking, and we missed having a proper dining space. The sofa? More like a short nap zone.

The family suite offered ample space and a comfortable setup, perfect for relaxing after a day of exploring. Cozy and well-appointed, it has enough room for everyone to kick back without feeling cramped.

The uphill walk to nearby attractions poses a challenge for anyone with mobility issues, especially considering the lack of proper footpaths and busy, reckless traffic. The shower pressure fluctuates, which can make mornings less than ideal for getting ready.

Our Family Suite was spacious and offered delightful garden views, making it a comfortable retreat after exploring the vibrant neighborhood.

The location required a bit of uphill walking to reach major attractions, which might be challenging for those with mobility issues. Additionally, parking options nearby can be pricey, so plan accordingly if you're visiting with a car.

What shines and what doesn’t

The spacious one-bedroom apartment was immaculate, with outstanding service from Mazlum, who went above and beyond during our stay. Location was ideal, surrounded by charming cafes and within easy walking distance of attractions.

Noise from the nearby mosque during early morning prayers might disturb light sleepers. The steep hill leading to the hotel poses a challenge for those with mobility issues.

excellent base for exploring major sights and charming cafes

The front house desk staff was super helpful, always bringing us complimentary Turkish tea during our stay. that added a nice touch. We enjoyed relaxing in the cozy lounge area and loved the peaceful garden for some downtime. A slight uphill walk to get to the main attractions might be a bit tiring, but it's worth it for everything else they offer. 😊

Prime location just a short walk from the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia makes exploring easy. The staff's hospitality shone brightly, particularly with Emre, who provided tips, cooling drinks, and genuine warmth, enhancing our overall experience. Additionally, the nearby traditional bakeries and self-service laundries were convenient. However, be prepared for some uphill walks to sights and occasional challenges with transportation access, and the shower pressure was inconsistent. These minor drawbacks didn't overshadow the positive aspects of our stay.

Just an optimal selection for a getaway in Istanbul with good price value. The staff offered complimentary tea during our stay, which was a nice touch. Be ready for a bit of an uphill walk to attractions.
