Verified traveller

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
It was simply the most terrible hotel I ever stayed at. Even though my reservation was for 7 nights, I was only able to last for 1 night and then I had to go to some other place. The room didn't even have enough space for me to unpack my bag. The bedsheets and towels were not clean, and the door was broken, the air conditioning didn't work, the bathroom smelled, and ... . I can't say enough about how awful the experience was. The only good thing about it was the beautiful view of the room and friendly staff.

Like the location and friendliness of the staff, Galata neighborhood is charming with great shops and cafés. Rooms are clean and in good shape considering how old the building is. Also liked the restaurant with good choice of Turkish wine and spectacular views of the city. Disliked the cleanliness of the breakfast restaurant, that also operates as a jazz nightclub Disliked the loud music and stomping coming from rooftop restaurant on a Friday late night. I suggest breakfast to be served on 9th floor for the views.

Great location crappy hotel
Room was very small and bathroom was not so clean. The air conditioner sucked and the noise from the street was very loud. The elevator was broken and stopped on every floor. The entrance is strange and you have to carry your luggage up a set of stairs.
