The breakfast with a wonderful view to the city and hot dishes, for instance was satisfactory for what you got. The atmosphere created was quiet. The location was great, because a tram station was based near the hotel. A bazaar and a grand bazaar were right next door;))

If you do n't want to go far from the hotel, try Sait Iskender Laleli, which is 900 ft away. The venue itself was in tourist neighborhood...
