Wonderful

Esans was clean and cozy and that staff was friendly and helpful. The location is unbeatable for exploring the Sultanahmet neighborhood and all of the sites/amenities of the old city.
Air conditioning ✅
Amazing location ✅ we were able to walk to all the major sites and take the tram to others!
Safe ✅ lots of restaurants nearby
Amazing front desk 24 hour service ✅ they arranged our transport with fixed rates do we knew what we were paying for taxi. The airport pick up was tricky since we got delayed but they accommodated us and it’s a big Mercedes van. Overall, I would say good for what you pay for. I would stay here again.
I was really pleased and very happy with this hotel. The front desk folks were always kind and chatty with us and were more than happy to offer any services and/or answer questions.
Breakfast was FABULOUS! Great variety of food and they slightly changed it up every day. There was even chocolate cake one morning, come on? Chocolate cake? YES PLEASE!!
The room was fantastic, the beds were comfortable, the bathrooms were nice. Great overall experience with a Bed and Breakfast small hotel feel to it. Big fan.
Also, the main touristy activities such as Aya Sophia, Blue Mosque and Sultan Palace was less than 10 minutes walking so a great deal and a great way to save money.
The front desk worker was very kind and helpful and they helped us book tickets to fun events. Great location for walking anywhere.
The beds are not super comfortable. My brother and I shared a room with two twin beds. He is about 6'3 and he found the bed slightly small and the mattresses were a little firm.
Also, keep in mind that they don't have maids or janitors available 24 hours a day so you may have to clean up messes yourself. (My brother and I got sick so we had to clean up vomit ourselves) If you are travelling with kids this may be something to consider.
Not wheelchair accessible at all. Expect to carry luggage up and down stairs or ask the front desk to help you.
Great location. Rooms were very nicely lit with big windows and comfy beds. But the AC was not up to par unfortunately. Took a couple hours to cool, other than that everything was great. Would probably stay here again if we get a different room with better AC.
For the price and location, can't really complain. Also, Tan was a great host and very accommodating.
Great location - walking distance to everything. Very nice staff. I especially enjoyed breakfast made by Sabohat-- awesome home cooked food, welcoming attitude, outstanding customer service. Rooms are pretty small, but cute.
Amazing hotel! In the best location ever — close to everything but super quiet. Staff was amazing, as was the breakfast. Definitely will be coming back!
Staff were very helpfull, they deserve 5 star.
I did not like the noise from other rooms due to construction between floor. Also, I hope they can improve on amenities.
