This was by far the worst place I have ever stayed in. I was really looking forward to my stay in istanbul, but this hotel was a complete let down. Paper thin walls means you can hear EVERYTHING including the 'you know what'. It was disgusting as I was staying with my retired elderly mum and we did NOT want to be kept up at night to hearing people doing it. It was shameful and absurd.
Lots of rude arabs and guests who did not quieten even after requesting for them to do so.
The cleanliness was decent, however we weren't ever given enough towels. The toilet seats are way up high, so your feet never touch the ground when your trying to go (which is super frustrating, at one point I had to grab my mini suitcase to put under my feet to go to the loo, and Im 5ft 5!
No hot water for one of the days, with no explanation, and wifi was slow. The breakfast (ive heard) is sub par. Im a doctor in the uk with turkish origins (family are Turkish) and this was a complete let down. unbelievable. Location wise, very noisy, school across the road, and also lots of traffice and pollution. Cigarette smoke everyhwere, lots of buses to hop on outside the hotel. Not too far from bagdat avenue, which is a nice shopping venue.
