Excellent Location and Helpful Staff

large windowcomfortable bedplumbing problem
The hotel and rooms felt more attractive than the pictures suggested. I felt some concern about staying in a basement level room, but we had plenty of light from a large window. The bathroom includes a full size shower and ample counter space. I also noticed the bed was comfortable and the air conditioner worked well.
I stayed four nights, and i did not rest well on any of them. The staff explained that ten rooms have the same plumbing problem because of the building's original design. The room door didn't seal well and i heard all noises from the hallway. Cleaning ladies started cleaning early and made a lot of noise.

The hotel sits a few minutes walk from the Blue Mosque. Hagia Sofia and Topkapı Palace are very close. I liked the area for being quiet at night though.
