only thing good about this place was price.
My experience was terrible. The staff was extremely impolite and didn't even provide the breakfast that was promised with my booking. Additionally, the location is far from all the attractions, which isn't ideal if you're going on a holiday.

location,near to restaurant and cafe .The cleaning staff is so nice and vigilant.
despite payments, I was told to pay again without checking their own records although I showed the receptionist that my bank confirmed that payment has been made but he kept insisting me to pay again.The room was smoking one although I requested ifor a non smoking and I was told its not available.The window couldn’t be closed so I slept whole night in cold weather of January in Istanbul till next morning things were sorted out.

Comfortable big enough room with beautiful sea view (upon a room choice). All needed facilities. Everyday room cleaning. Friendly staffs. Good for a long-term stay
Internet is not powerful enough to conduct video chats from a room. Sometimes, even audio calls were cut off every few minutes because wifi dropped off.
Thanks the administration for attempting to solve the issues asap.
In the lobby wifi works perfectly. But in order to work from the room I had to buy Turkcell internet sim card to have stable internet.
That would be great to have high quality internet in rooms.

The fact that i booked a room as per the photos shown on booking.com. upon check in they provided us with the room in the basement!!! That was shocking because they didnt mention anything about a basement even the pictures showed some nice luxury room! I felt it was a rip off and it was highly unacceptable!

The facilities are decent. The price was acceptable but not cheap either. Room was ok and have a modern style. I liked the the lobby area as well but very limited choices to order.
The location is not that great, narrow streets and difficult to park. No access to parking despite they do have one.
Breakfast is very limited in choices and area so small. You better don't pay for it and go out for a better breakfast.

I spent 9 days here in Sept 2022 and have to say this hotel is a truly incredible value. For less than $50/day, you get a cozy bedroom, a comfortable living space, a kitchen with full-size fridge, and a great view (I was on the 8th floor). It's not the biggest space overall but the variety of "rooms" you get makes it feel bigger than it is; in fact I really enjoyed this aspect of the room, being able to switch from room-to-room.
The decor is tasteful and very sleek/modern, which extends to the lobby and restaurant as well. I only used the room service once, but it was prompt and tasty at a good price. And if you're concerned about the local cuisine, you can also take comfort in knowing there are about half a dozen fast food chains within 6 blocks of the hotel (burgers, pizza, fried chicken, and sandwiches).
I noticed some reviews complaining about the staff, but I found them to be very approachable and accommodating. All told I'm very happy I stayed here, and would do so again if I needed to stay in this part of Istanbul.
I did have several issues with my room, which is why I couldn't give it a 10. None were big enough a problem to penalize the hotel TOO much though!
1. On closer inspection, the room showed its wear a little more than the photos suggested. Older towels, a few holes in the curtain, a cigarette burn in the sofa, tape stuck to the window (visible in photo), and a leaking air conditioner (which was resolved the same day by maintenance staff). Like I said, none of these were big enough to really get upset about, they're just worth mentioning.
2. The bathroom sink did not use a "trap" (the U-shaped bend under the drain) which meant that sewer gases could, and did, come up into the bathroom area. This was probably the least pleasant part about the room. However the sink did have a push-down stopper, which I had to keep closed for most of my stay to avoid the smell.
3. The neighborhood is fine but it's probably not the part of Istanbul you're visiting Istanbul to see, nor is it very close. Taxis can get you to the European side, but it's at least 35-40 minutes away and there's frequently a lot of traffic to cross over. Instead, I'd suggest looking into the regional train and/or ferry to get across.
All that said, this hotel is still a phenomenal deal, so I'm willing to overlook a few very minor inconveniences and judge this place on the overall experience, which was terrific.
