The staff was very helpful and understanding when we had to postpone our check-in by several days, even though we prepaid a booked via Expedia for a specific time frame. Further, all staff went out of their way to accommodate any of our wishes and treated us like royalty. It couldn’t have been any better. Many thanks!

Our first rooms were in the dungeon, I mean the basement, where the hall carpets were stained, the bathroom had water leaking actively onto the floor and the toilet was up against the wall so close I could not sit up straight. Our windows had the view of a wall a few feet away which encouraged the dungeon feel. Fortunately, after a rather thorough complaint, we were given rooms on the 1st floor the following day that were much improved. The staff were very helpful and we really enjoyed the breakfasts. Because of their listening ear we were able to enjoy our stay in Istanbul.
