Not friendly staff
We checked out and my friend asked if she could use the bathroom and they said since you checked out you cannot. Using bathroom was right after checkout was over.

Otopark biraz sıkıntılı
İstiklal caddesine yakın, konumu mükemmel. Temizlik ve konfor yeterli. Ancak otopark var olarak gösterilmemeliydi, dışarıdaki ücretli otopark oda fiyatına yakın tutuyor.

Buen Hotel pero le falta mantenimiento
El Hotel esta bien ubicado, tiene todo lo necesario, la gente muy amable, pero pienso que lo han descuidado de mantenimiento y necesitan mejorar el tema de la limpieza.
