Great location near some lovely eating places and close to the Galata bridge and lots of transport links. Staff not very helpful or friendly but we didn’t need them much. Breakfast was tasty but no options just the same thing each morning. Fine for a few days but by day 5 I was a bit bored! Breakfast staff at the sister “root” hotel were terrible smoking at the entrance to breakfast room, not providing clean cups etc. Rooms were comfortable, clean and quiet. Overall a good stay but a few down sides. Great location and clean rooms. Poor staff and breakfast though tasty can get a bit repetitive

Walking distance to the ferries, trams, and buses, as well as restaurants, cafes, and lots of historic attractions. Highly recommended if you're visiting Istanbul!

Smaller rooms but comfortable. Everything you need for a base while visiting Istanbul. TV has youtube and netflix capability which is nice for English speaking guests. Breakfast very good. Easy to walk across the bridge to Sultanahmet area as well as up the hill to Taksim Sq and Iskatel Street. For the price it is clean, safe, and convenient option. Staff were very accommodating to my requests. Baggage storage pre and post check in. Even allowed me to check in at 7:30am when I arrived.
