Oda bakımsız prizler sökük berbat manzaralı bir oda, kahvaltısı da kötüydü başka bir yerde kahvaltı yapıp yola çıkmak zorunda kaldık
Bize satılan ekonomi odası depoda ardiye odası çıktı perdelerin yıkandığı odaymış. Size bir üst oda satalım 7.000 ilave ödeme yapın dediler. Konuyu Turizm Bakanlığına taşıyacağız deyince bu seferlik geçin dediler.
Merkezi konumda olması, odaların büyüklüğü ve yüksek tavan olması,Temiz olması , personelin en ufak bir problemde ilgilenmesi her istanbul konaklamamda burayı tercih etmeme sebep oluyor.
Konakladığımız bu süreç bizim için son derece keyifli geçti. Otelde sıcak ve samim bir atmosfer vardı.Özellikle otel sabinin ve çalışanların misafirperverliği ve güler yüzleri sıcak bir ortam oluşturdu. Kendinizi iyi hissettiriyor.Bu tür bir hizmet, konaklamayı sadece fiziksel bir deneyim olmaktan çıkarıp, gerçek bir ev hissi yaratıyor.
Otelde Konaklama sürecinde kendimizi rahat ve güvende hissettik.
Bu güzel deneyim için tüm ekibe teşekkür ediyoruz. Gelecek seyahatimizde mutlaka tekrar tercih edeceğimiz bir yer olacak.

Otel çok tepe de arabanız yoksa asla kalmayın. Yokuş tırmanıyorsunuz bayağı bi yol kenarından. Otel de sıcak su yoktu soğuk suyla duş aldık,duşa kabin içerisinde böcek vardı kendim temizledim,duvarların boyası dökülmüş haldeydi,ütü istedik milattan kalma bir ütüydü ve ütü masası yoktu yatak üzerinde bozuk ütüyle ütü yaptık,oda içerisinde ki dolapta hiç bir soğuk içeçek yoktu sadece iki adet sıcak su vardı,odalarda ses yalıtımı bulunmuyor yan tarafınızda ki kişilerin sesini olduğu gibi duyuyorsunuz.
Hôtel proche de nos zones d'intérêts, bosphore ,Bebek,etc.
Personnel acceillant ,souriant et toujours prêt à apporter son aide en particulier Hasret özkan
Je conseille malgré la proximité du pont qui est largement compensée par une vue magnifique sur le bosphore , un air de campagne avec des poules en liberté...

Big Time, NOISE PROBLEM
Zero sound isolation, if you are on the roadside or staying in one of the below rooms, you are not going to sleep at all.
Also, because of the economic crises in Turkey, I believe they rented their rooms to people for a month or more
We had 6 people staying above us... NIGHTMARE !!!
Right by the Bosphorus Bridge yet in a secluded location. Lovely garden setting. One side of the hotel restaurant has a view of the Bosphorus and both sides of Istanbul.
Otelin konumu güzel yerde fakat otel çok pisti. Kaldıgım odanın banyosu korkunc pis lavobanın giderleri kıllarla dolu tokabmıs duş almak ımkansızdı. Yatak çarsafları değiştirilmemiş lekeli ve pisti. Yerler zaten toz içindeydi. Tek iyi yanı resepsiyonda ki calısan arkadas yardımcı olmaya calıstım ama ımkansızlık dahilin de o da yardımcı olamadı. Yastık kılıfları berbattı. 5.8 puan verilmiş ama ınanın değeri 3.-3,2 aralıgında. Şiddetle tavsiye etmiyorum istanbul gibi bi metropolde ve istambul un göbeğin de rezalet bir işletme.. The location of the hotel is very nice. The hotel is very very dirty.
