The Row Suites Taksim

Location

Very close to mosques and prayer was really loud in our room.

The Row Suites was the best hotel I could have hoped for. It was so cheap for the central location, I paid 65 euros per night for a perfect experience. Only 2 mins to taksim square. When we arrived, we were greeted by two lovely employees who were so welcoming. All of the hallway areas are really nice looking and the elevator is really good. We had the balcony suite, which was the same price as a normal room. The bedroom is lovely, the bed is comfortable, the balcony is so great. Great to have cooking hobs, kettle, fridge. Only two rooms on the floor we were on (top floor). Had no problems with bugs as other reviews mentioned.

The shower pressure is really bad but you can still have a shower with it.

We really enjoyed our stay! The location is excellent, just a 3-minute walk from Taksim Square and İstiklal Street, with easy access to taxis, buses, and the metro. The staff and manager were very kind, friendly, and helpful throughout our stay. We would definitely stay here again!

The washing machine didn’t work, and we had to ask for toilet paper each time we needed it. It would be better to keep extra toilet paper in each bathroom.

This is relatively new property 4 minutes walk from Taksim, so very convinient. The staff is very attentive and trying to help. The suite we got could be classified as 1.5 bedroom - there was one full bedroom and another had separation from common area in kitchen without a door. The room had fridge, kitchen utensils so you can eat your takeout at your pleasure.

While property is new, it has number of design/operational errors. First - the bedroom's aircon's airflow is very low. So if you take your access card with you, aircon shuts off for the whole unit. When outside temp is >30C it took >5 hours running aircon to lower temperature inside the room and keep the door open to the kitchen area where better aircon was. Secondly - the room has washer/dryer combined unit, however it did not work for drying- when we started drying cycle it showed 3h cycle to complete and after finishing clothes were as wet as before. We tried several drying cycles - the same outcome. Then - microwave is right above the washer/dryer unit hanging/exposing sharp corners. One of the member of our party almost got insured by hitting head on that microwave when trying to load/unload clothes from machine.
