Property located is very convenient to Eminonu tram and bus stop. Very walkable to Spice and Grand Bazar as well as walking or taking tram or bus across the bridge to Galata Tower and Istiklal street. Great access to dining, food, convenience store options downstairs all within 1/2 block with prices geared towards locals. This is a budget friendly hotel. Its a place to rest your head at night after a long day if exploring the the great city of Istanbul. The rooms are basic at best but is a great value with a excellent location.

This place is the worst place I have ever been to. Firstly the pictures are deceiving as it's not actually the place. The manager is extremely rude and refused to give us the room we paid for when he said he would earlier during the day. The rooms were very small that was hard to even breath. The worst of all they lied to ebookers when I tried to get a refund saying that they had given us the room we wanted. I am appalled that hotel like this is even functioning as the manager is even rude to his customers. In Istanbul avoid this hotel if you can at any circumstances.

Good value for the money

Note for travellers: If you are unable to handle stairs or walking, this hotel is not appropriate for you (no elevator, no main floor rooms, located far from major attractions)

If you don't mind walking a bit, then this hotel is great value for the money. Please remember that it's not a 5 star hotel, but given the rating, we found the rooms to be very large and comfortable. The staff were pleasant and hard working, especially Mehmet.

The neighbourhood is a very poor neighbourhood so it may look rough, but in fact the shops all around were good, and they were cheaper than the tourist district. Local restaurants were very cheap but food was good.

It is difficult to bring a car down this street but not impossible. We managed to unload our luggage in front of the hotel and then move the car to a paid auto park.

Sabahın 5’inde kapısında pompalı tüfekle maskeli bir şahıs birini kovalıyordu. Kapısında ateş edildi pompalıyla. Konumu o kadar berbat ki Hindistan sokağı gibi bir yerde. Metçiler, maddeciler hepsi orada. Polis eşliğinde çıkış yaptığım bir otel oldu. Polis “oğlum buraya gelinir mi başka gelecek yer mi bulamadın” dedi. Kısaca canını seven kapısından bile geçmesin. Zaten normalde iki kişilik odayla tek kişilik oda site üzerinde aynı fiyatken yanlışlıkla tek kişilik rezervasyon yaptım diye iki kişi kalabilmek için üstüne bir o kadar da nakit isteyen otelciyi saymıyorum bile. Ayak üstü adam seviyorlar (!). Hayatımda gideceğim son otel olarak kayda geçti. Çünkü canımı seviyorum.

Das Hotel ist im großen und ganzen gut, ABER die Bäder könnten etwas sauberer sein auf dem waschbecken und bad ist einfach sehr sehr vieeeeel Kalk was dem anschein gibt das es seit längerem nicht gereinigt worden ist. . Unter dem Betten ist auch etwas Krümel.

Das Personal ist sehr nett, freundlich und zuvorkommend, es geht auf wünsche ein und setzt diese um. Der ausenbereich das runter zum stand geht lässt zu wünschen übrig, sehr steil und die Treppe ist auch nicht besonderes sicher.
Trotzdem haben wir uns sicher und wohl gefühlt.
Die Anlage hat 3 aussen pools und gut für Familien mit Kinder.

Biggest problem was, that the hotel had BED BUGS

- But let me start from the start with the first red flag: on the top of the offer on Hotels.com it was written: \"Parking available\". Then hidden somewhere down in the offer stayed EUR 2/day. But when we arrived he took us to the parking space which was on 3 mins walking distance and there the other guy (who owned the parking) charged us 5 EUR/day!! And when we wanted to access the car on the next day and it was locked, so we had to wait..
- Despite the proximity to the city centre, the area looks extremely sketchy and dirty. Nothing like the photo
- The floor and bathroom were quite dirty. The bed sheets were OBVIOUSLY dirty, and there were no blanket and pillow for the 3rd bed, even though we explicitly booked and paid for 3 people. A mere 1 blanket (without cover sheet) and 1 bed sheet were given to us straight from another room with the explanation, that the hotel is full and there is none
- The air conditioning started just pouring water over one of the beds in the evening, wetting it. So we had to move it. They said they will send someone to check it. Nobody came, and in the end there was puddle of water on the floor..
- We stayed for one night and couldn't bear it anymore. Of course they didn't give us any money back.
- We contacted Hotels.com's support. They were really polite, but couldn't do anything about it. It is a shame, they don't have more robust policy in place for such cases and also, that they allow for such sketchy scammers to thrive. Never again..

Wenn du wahres Istanbul sehen willst, das ist Ort für dich. Keine typische touristische Gegend, eher sind da heimische unterwegs. Wenig Geld aber sehr nette und freundliche Personal. Außerdem die Lage ist top. Hotel ist nicht luxuriös aber das soll man auch nicht für das Preis erwarten. Man ist ja eh ganzen Tag unterwegs. Wir waren mit 2 Kinder da und alle waren so hilfreich, nett und lieb.

Hallo,

ich und meine 4 Brüdern hatte dort 4 Tage übernachtet.
Die Zimmerfenster ging nicht zu, Toiletten sind Katastrophe, wir haben nicht einmal geduscht, fast alles kaputt, null euro in diese Anlage investiert. Es hat so ekelig nach Kot gestunken.

Also ich finde nicht das Hotel hat schuld, sondern meiner Meinung hat hier Expedia schuld da sie solche Hotel in ihre web Seite anbieten, die sie nicht kennen und andere Menschen auf ihre Homepage anbieten. Nie wieder werde ich Expedia für etwas benutzen, lieber Check24 oder andere Seiten.
Wegen dieser dreckigen Hotels hatten wir gar keinen Spaß in Istanbul.

Cabinet and drawers, without handles. The bathroom door could not be locked
It was supposed to be two double rooms with two single beds, but they gave us two rooms with double beds and only one duvet. After much insistence we were able to get an extra duvet
We had booked for 7 and 10 nights but were only there one night, because WE HAD TO CHANGE hotel.
The receptionist treated us very bad and harshly, did not give us the rest of the money again and said: \"You have only paid 5 euros. \" While we had paid 172 euros for the 10 nights and 121 euros for the 7 nights.

I will NEVER recommend this hotel to those who want a nice good holiday, NEVER

Вообще все оказалось лучше, чем я ожидала

. Не было никаких насекомых!!! Ура.
Было не очень чисто в номере. По углам пыль, волосы. Под потолком тоже какой-то пух. Но это поправимо.
Высокая слышимость, беруши в помощь.
Примечание : если не заткнуть полотенцем щель между дверью и полом в ванной, после душа вода покидает пределы душевой.
В лотерее с окнами выпало окно в коридор, но в конце октября это плюс, тк тепло.
Удобное расположение, рядом эминоню, метро, сулеймание, базары, магазины, лавчонки с мылом, супермаркет а101. За полчаса можно дойти до другой стороны берега, где шоссе кеннеди и кучи нетуристических забегаловок и море без границ с длинной набережной и причалом до яловы.
Отличный напор воды, горячая вода на самом деле такая, вайфай супер.

Очень отзывчивый персонал и чистый и большой номер, окна выходят на улицу (не в золл и не в стену), посторонних запахов нет(ни плесени ни сигаретного из кондиционера, ни каких либо еще), туалет-душ не метр на метр. Прямо под окнами, да и вообще в шаговой доступности есть не просто съедобная, но и вкусная еда, от которой не сведет живот. Мы три дня жили в стамбуле и около месяца в Турции. Это самый лучший из бюджетных отелей Стамбула в Фатихе, из один из самых нормальных в Турции в целом.

Вид из окна - так себе ( старые крыши), зато вид с площадки - на Золотой рог, особенно ночью завораживает. Лестница крутая, но ходить можно. Район - очень колоритный. Много местных кафешек, рядом супермаркет. Администратор Самы(и)р - говорит по русски. Очень удобно от всех достопримечательностей.
