Property is in such a conjusted area that the driver could not get by the Hotel. We had to drag our bags up the uneven road. Hotel didn’t even have elevator. Spiral stairs and was so difficult to get our bags to our room.

Just not like the photo, very disappointing.
Claims to be a Boutique Hotel with 16 rooms on 4 levels, (no lift!). Some Deluxe rooms look beautiful from photos, but we booked Special Room, a standard double room, which also looked stylish and large, on the photos. The ground floor room given to us was tiny, dilapidated, and nothing like the photos! No space around the bed, for an armchair, as pictured. Wall Paint was dirty, and scratched with lumps peeling off. Looks like it has had no maintenance in 20 years. Sheets were good, but pillows too hard and doona was too thick for summer. Shower rose kept slipping down, water stayed lukewarm. I’m glad we only booked one night, this was very disappointing! It’s not too hard to paint a room.

It was pretty property, quite old fashioned and fits in with the vibes of the area. There was an unpleasant strong smell from the bathroom but found that in many places in Istanbul so that wasn’t too great - perhaps to do with plumbing in Istanbul in general?. The view out the window was pretty nice though. It’s a decent hotel, mostly clean. Was really there to sleep and explore the city, decent price. Expect what you pay for. Staff were polite enough and eager to help.

Stay in Erten Konak Istanbul, Turkiye
It was just an OK trip. Since we had luggage the room we reserved was not given to us. We had reserved a room with sea view in the fourth floor, but we were asked to climb a very very narrow stairs for 5 flights, which was not possible. So we had to settle for a smaller room in the first floor. Being an inferior room we should be getting a partial refund at least. Also the room which we reserved for $70+ from US, was listed for $32 on hotels.com website itself, when we reached there. Still we were charged in full. The pictures shown on their website is old. The furnitures were very very old. The bathroom had good and fine fittings. Air conditioner was fine and good. Breakfast was good enough though very same repeated over and over again. No drinking water was provided. The tour contacts from the hotel desk was good. And they arranged good taxi service for good price.

Total Disappointment
Staff didn't speak much english, so a lot of misunderstandings. Room was not cleaned everyday. We took garbage out twice. Told them my bathroom lamp was broken and they never fixed it. They arranged for an english speaking Aqva tour, and the tour guide didn't speak one word of english. They took us in a raggedy van that was dirty and had the side door broken. Driver didn't give us any information. I felt robbed. On top of it, they dropped us off very far from the hotel and one of us had problems walking. I wouldn't recommend this tour to anyone. I feel we deserve to be reimbursed.

The property is ideally located for Istanbul’s sights. All the Turkish will say walking is impossible but it’s all within 300 meters to 1.5 miles. The property is very old and needs updating with decor and refreshing of painting and decorating. House keeping is terrible as the beds had hairs the toilet had hairs. Floor was not mopped and my used towels were just folded back and reused. The hotel cuts corners everywhere to maximise profits but there is very little to no consideration of tourist stay. Please do not travel to this hotel. You will be highly disappointed. It’s no more then a 2 star hotel. What a disappointment!

They were so nice and became friends. They also helped me get great deals on all the little tours and trips I went on. I would definitely go again and recommend this hotel to all my friends.

We booked a room for 13 nights and we were excited to stay in a clean and comfortable room. Unfortunately, when we reached first we saw many flies starting from the entrance. Our room was very small and smelly and not as it was shown on the picture. There were red stains on the walls and most of the items like the lamp, furniture and walls were old and broken. Also, there were small mosquitos in the room as well as some very small dead mosquitos on the bed sheet. The restroom was very small and there was no room between the toilet and the sink so you could not use the toilet properly. The air conditioner was old and placed on top of the bed so when you turned the AC off the room was very hot and smelly and you couldn't sleep at all, but when you turned the AC on the room was becoming unbearably cold. We couldn't sleep the whole night because I had the air conditioner remote in my hand and changing the degree every couple of minutes so as not to feel so cold as well as not to have the smell in the room. Still, I got sick the next day 😞 which made us leave the hotel after only one night's stay and booked another hotel. It's been 4 days since then but still, I cannot speak properly I am taking antibiotics and I still haven't recovered so my holiday is ruined. We checked-in on the 19th of June and when we complained about our room many times the receptionist told us that we are fully booked so we cannot help you. You should wait for our manager he might help the next day.

Poor Service
It was horrible experience. No lift and my room was in 4th floor. Had to carry all my luggage myself. The ground staff was not helpful. They were chatting and I asked them if they could give me a hand as I had more than 4 luggages. They failed to help and were continuing their chat. If you have no options and looking for cheap stay, then proceed. The bed was hard and horrible too.
