The hotel offered a wonderful stay, with friendly staff and good service. I appreciated the clean rooms, but they were quite small and didn't have the best ventilation. The location was quite convenient, just a short walk to the ferry station though the area felt a bit seedy. Overall, it was a decent experience for the price, but there's room for improvement.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. On the plus side, the location is fantastic, making it easy to explore the area, and the friendly staff really made a difference during my stay. However, the cleanliness of the rooms left much to be desired, and the dining options could use some improvement. Overall, if you're looking for a value-for-money place in a great spot, it's worth considering, but be prepared for some drawbacks.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. While the location was great, allowing for easy transportation and close to the waterfront, my expectations for the rooms fell short. They were very clean, but the carpets were in poor shape, which was disappointing. The staff were friendly and accommodating, making the stay more pleasant. However, the dining options left a lot to be desired, especially for breakfast.

I had a pleasant stay at this hotel, mainly due to its great location right in the heart of Kadikoy, making it easy to explore the area. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, which made a big difference during my visit. However, the rooms were on the smaller side, and while clean and comfortable, they could really use some updating. Overall, it's a solid choice for the price, but don't expect luxury.
