The location is incredible and excellent, in the city center. The room is spotless with heaters or extra blanket, also they can offer wake-up service. The cost is £ 50.

All the staff was kind, settled my issues. Booked a room with heaters or extra blanket. The cost was £ 50. The location was fantastic, at a walking distance from a cobblestone street. Moreover, it was right by surrounding area, the metro station and airport bus stop and Galata tower.

We had a big and brand-new room with a minibar, central heating, and an electronic key card. The bed was exceptionally comfortable, the staff were very helpful and absolutely friendly. The location was good, not too far from a contemporary art museum.
