Very Good Featured review

10/10
The room was quiet, clean, and big enough for two, and the hotel is in a good location. Breakfast was wonderful and varied. The restaurant staff were very kind and generous, especially the waiter, and housekeeping was generous too. I arrived late on the 11th and got a warm welcome from receptionist Anas and his assistant. They also gave special assistance to my elderly mother, who uses a wheelchair. I recommend this hotel 100%.

The rooms were nice and clean, and the staff were very helpful, even though they knew only a little English. That wasn't a problem, and we had a nice stay for two nights. Thanks for everything.

There was no running water at all when I arrived, and the hotel staff offered no solution. I couldn't shower, brush my teeth, wash my hands, or even use the toilet. I was on my period, which made the situation disgusting, uncomfortable, and stressful. I had to ask the business next door to help me find someone from the hotel, and this happened multiple times because nobody was there to assist. I paid for a room but couldn't even access water. A complete lack of basic human necessities. Horrible experience, absolutely unacceptable.

The staff made this boutique hotel feel like home, and the rooms have been recently renovated. Service was amazing, breakfast was great, and I really appreciate the stay. It's an excellent location for walking to the Blue Mosque and Haji Sofia, and the metro is just two blocks away. You can also reach the historical sites on foot or take the metro or a bus. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

I stayed at this hotel years ago and was very happy with the location and views of the Blue Mosque. I did find some hairs in the bed and had to call the cleaning staff to remove them, and drinks on the rooftop were expensive. The price seems to be triple nowadays, though at the time I stayed it was very, very cheap for me.
