The hotel is centrally located, which is great. If you are physically impaired at all, this is not the hotel for you. To enter you have to go down quite a fewfairly steep stairs.
The rooms are nice and clean.the staff are lovely and very helpful. 7 mins walk to the Bazaar and 10 mins to Basiical Cistern and other main attractions. We did like the loaction a lot.

Good Hotel for Central Istanbul
The first night we had a problem with the room but the hotel staff were very helpful and organized a room change for us. The staff were very friendly and the location of the hotel is amazing everything is in walking distance! They do not have the AC working in the winter months which is understandable but it can get very hot in the rooms and when you open the window it can be very noisy as there was a lot of construction going on around. The rooms could also be a little bit cleaner. Would recommend overall.

We booked this property for 2 nights.
The property itself was clean and convenient. But what we saw in the pictures it was misleading for the breakfast.
We had selected breakfast and the options were so limited it felt it was not worth it. We were very disappointed.
