Elena M.
The owner’s hospitality was the best part of my stay. The hotel is small but tidy and quite clean, with good white sheets and towels. It's in a peaceful spot and feels like a place where you can feel at home. Thank you for having me.

The host, Ale, was a class act. Sorry for the room complaints, but I have to be honest: the shower had an odd smell, and there was only one socket, nowhere near the bed. The internet felt like it was coming by carrier pigeon. The location was perfect, just a five-minute walk from blue mosque.

It was my last day in Istanbul, and I had a really good time here. I was traveling alone, and Ali was kind and helpful, looked after me, and suggested places to eat. He also gave me some of his paintings.

Ali, the host, is patient and very dedicated. He made sure I had what I needed and was always ready with advice and directions to help me enjoy my stay. The hotel is in a quiet area with plenty of restaurants and cafés nearby. The rooms were clean and the service excellent. The Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia are only a few minutes away on foot, while Galata Bridge and the port are around 20-25 minutes away walking.

We loved this place and can wholeheartedly recommend it. The room was cleaned every day, and the room itself was clean and cosy. One night it got rather cold, and an extra blanket was there the next day without us having to ask. Ali is an extremely kind host who brought us anything we needed within minutes. The location is beautiful, only minutes from Sultanahmet and Hagia Sophia mosque. We especially enjoyed tea with Ali on the rooftop terrace, looking out over the sea.
