It was not definitely like 3 star hotel as they claim it. More like guest house compared to 3 star hotel i was there before. But in general it was not bad. Good price and in terms of facility was ok. However some basic wasnt there like bin..... it looks very very old. Window fell off on me and it was super heavy and injured my head and neck. It could be very dangerous and could lead to severe injury. Imagine, you don't expect and suddenly something over 60 kg fall on your head and is shocking. Second thing that was terrible and shameful was booking taxi to airport. My flight was at 9pm and they told me 5:30 pm is good enough to leave hotel. I trust them and we agreed about price and reservation however they work with a taxi station. When we started after 10 min driver told instead of 1500 TL pay me 3000 TL I change my way to longer way (double milage) but lighter traffic to drop you on time. It was nonsence to me to make 45 km over 100 km. Its only for more money as they charge passengers by driving milage. When I refused he intentionally drove slowly didn't change line in highway as other people to avoid getting stuck in traffic and was following a slow truck in front and it took me nearly 4 hours to get to sabiha airport. Eventually I missed my flight. Its big shame and when I called reception to complain I was told kemal is busy, not available.... He could tell me in advance not after getting to the way and increasing price. DO NOT book taxi by hotel and dont trust driver in istanbul as they selcet the longest way to charge extra. Couple of friends had same experience in istanbul. If want to get taxi and want to get to place on time with reasonable price must go 8-10 hours ahead of time or go by metro. Taxi is worst option in istanbul. Shame on him absolutely greedy with...

This cheap hotel (we paid 50 euros per night by credit card) offers wifi, sat TV, modern bathrooms with power showers, firm beds and quite a lot of space. There are plenty of restaurants, bars and clubs around. Just on the other side of the street, there are 2 good restaurants (one more frequented by locals and one more by tourists). I definitely preferd staying in Beyoglu than in Sultanahmet, since restaurants are really better, cheaper and more frequented by locals in this part of the city.||The breakfast is served in the underground and is not inspiring. However you can fill with bread, processed cheese, olives and so on. In case you want to skip it, "Simit saray" (a bakery chain) is located very close and you can buy a simit...
Read moreMe & my family stayed there for a week. We stayed in 3 rooms. The rooms are very tidy and the toilets are clean. Nothing is luxurious but there is everything u need (soap, clean towels everyday, shampoo, house keeping, a hair dryer in the bathroom, air conditioning and TV). The staff are very friendly and polite. The breakfast was three types of cheese, halal bologna, butter, honey, jam, tea, coffee, sliced tomatoes, cucumber and two types of juice. the place is a one minute walk from Isteklal street and near restaurants and mini markets. I'd recommend this hotel for anyone searching for a clean, nice and cheap 3...
