Possibly the best and really really nice stay for 6 nights. Above average and very very good breakfast with diffrent options; excellent staff. Brand-new and neat room available with high floors, garden view, for example. Particularly good location in front of the beautiful Sulemaniye mosque and easy access to a shopping area and a bazaar.

The breakfast is excellent, and the location is magnificent just off attractions in the area such as Blue mosque, Grand Bazar, Haya Sophia, Kabatash, grand bazaar, blue mosque and transport, and tram station and metro station.
