Friendly enough staff for Istanbul. Great balcony with sea view and a surprisingly good breakfast. Plenty of restaurants close by and a short walk to the centre of old town. The place overall needs a little TLC.

We had a good stay at Artefes Hotel in Istanbul. The hotel is very well located, within walking distance of the main historic sites. The staff were kind and helpful, and the rooms were clean and comfortable. Breakfast was decent for the price, and the rooftop terrace offered a pleasant view of the city. While the shower area felt a little tight and some amenities could be improved, the overall experience was positive. A solid choice for travelers looking for comfort and value in the old city.
