The breakfast is wonderful and the view is perfect. Rooms are older and no frills. Not much room to move around or store suitcases. Bathroom is small for those needing a bit of space. This is a budget accomodation. That being said, the staff are lovely and very accomodating. The location is within minutes of all the main sites of Sultanahmet. It should be noted that there is construction next door and on my second night the workman spent all night loading rubble and sheets of iron intl a truck to remove it. This was very loud and woke me multiple times from about 11pm through until sunrise. Not the hotel owners fault, by any means, but worth noting if travelling in the next few months.

It is centrally located which is great, two blocks from blue mosque, Hagia Sofia and basilica cisterns. Lots of restaurants. Simple no frills but good place to stay. Staff were great. Right next to tram line which is convenient but sometimes noisy. Highly recommend and reasonable prices.

The location is terrific, less than 5 minute walk to the Hippodrome. The staff were all vey helpful especially the day manager who gave us plenty of helpful info. However, the tram goes right by the hotel so it was a little nosier than expected. And the beds were hard and the linens were not great.

The hotel is in a great location near to the Blue Mosque, Sofia Mosque, Cistern and palace. The only thing to be aware is that the Hotel doesn't accept credit card and their exchange rate is not convenient, so bring euros to pay the stay. Other than that the hotel is good. The view from the terrace is awesome. Breakfast is good.
