Appreciated how nice little the property was and its gentle staff in Services. The location was good and ideal, close to Sultanahmet District Square. And we were just off all the attractions, and especially historical places such as Topkapi.

I had very nice 3 nights in this hotel that's why I liked that. The venue was set in a central area adjacent to Istanbul and Tramway and the tram line.
Although everything was nice, some of the staff were dirty.
