Very helpful owner and staff and perfectly adequate accommodations with all the basics you need. It is very loud at night but it also means you’re in a happening neighborhood! We had a lot of fun. Bring ear plugs, download white noise and get really good value for your money by staying here! ##### Shaylene Stayed 5 nights in Sep 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Garry 7 Apr 2024 Liked: Amenities No problems here - you can shop on Iskatel st. or use the metro or take the underground train { in the metro stat. } to Kabatas and then get on the tram and view the Bosphorus strait- easily. Or if you are a hiker - head out and beat feet to the water views of the Bosphorus - 30 - 35 min - max. from Iskatel st. Check out the kafe's. ##### Garry Stayed 5 nights in Mar 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Nicole 19 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The room was large and the bed was comfortable. As noted in previous reviews the are is loud in the evenings, but we were so exhausted from gallivanting that we slept despite the noise. The staff were kind and helpful. The area is quite lovely. There are tons of restaurants and cafes and shopping nearby. For the price we would definitely stay there again. ##### Nicole Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Tamara 8 Aug 2025 Liked: Staff & service, amenities Very small hotel located in Taksim. Lots of shopping and restaurants nearby. Rooms can be noisy as hotel surrounded by restaurants in the pub. At night time you can hear the music and people until eight hours. It was not very clean and needed remodeling. ![Mold in the shower ceiling ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/8d571856-ce8b-4db8-8522-ac8b58ce82a4-1754672878031.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Mold in the bathroom/ shower](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/74a416d1-2f84-4096-a068-b62b9c7428e4-1754672877911.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Mold between the tile in the shower ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/0200d9a9-e652-4857-b5e4-d49a636e525a-1754672877780.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Mold in the shower ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/3d479fed-f785-4751-99fa-ccc5d199f5fd-1754672876435.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Tamara Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Aimad Eddahbi 15 Mar 2023 Great location, clean, nice staff, the best place in Taksim, highly recommend it. ##### Aimad Eddahbi Stayed 1 night in Mar 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Reza 11 Mar 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Nice location. ##### Reza Stayed 6 nights in Mar 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Marouene 2 Jul 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Convenient stay ##### Marouene Stayed 5 nights in Jun 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Abdulkarim 22 Jul 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Nice location, clean, fully equipped bathroom .. ##### Abdulkarim Stayed 1 night in Jul 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Muhammet 9 Feb 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Nicely ##### Muhammet Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Emily 17 Jun 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Cheap and convenient for visit purposes. ##### Emily Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Garry 3 Nov 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Taksim is where its at -
