I found the location very convenient. Galata tower was a short walk away. The staff were helpful. They even ordered a taxi for me using their OWN app when i was in a hurry. The turkish breakfast at the cafe downstairs offered delicious options.

The room i initially booked was changed, it was smaller than expected but did include a balcony that i did not request.

Mixed experience. Some issues noticed

mold smell damaged blinds

The bathroom had a persistent mold smell. It was quite unpleasant. the blinds were damaged. Privacy was compromised. staff only taped the blinds. This reminded me of a very temporary, inadequate solution. i wonder why they assigned a room in that condition in the first place. It was unacceptable.
