We initially booked in for one night as we'd arrived late and had tried to get into a couple of boutique hotels recommended by lonely planet (all were pricey and/or full). After spending a night here and having an excellent breakfast in the 3rd floor breakfast room with views (buffet style - traditional turkish (lots of it) with very fresh bread, fresh fruit and a choice of juices - and being perfect for the Topkapi/Blue Mosque/Agyia Sofia, we decided to stay on a further 4 nights - the room was very clean with tv and fridge and the staff were very friendly and very helpful.

Our room was at the front of the hotel and overlooked the bars/restaurants in the street - although this was a little noisy at times, it was no real problem and was no more than we expected in the centre of Istanbul.

If/when we go back to Istanbul we would/will stay here again.

Room was good - location great - staff friendly and really close to the major sights, but on a very noisy street. Impossible to sleep with the loud music, shouting, drum noises and car horns going on until 4am. The only way to drown out the noise was to turn the air-conditioning on full blast. If you're a light sleeper or you're not into late night partying this is not a good place to stay.

This hotel is very well located, close to Topkapi, both mosques, public transport both tram & train. The hotel room & bathroom was clean and spacious. The rooms at the front have two windows (double glazed) that open to the street. The back rooms have a window but they have been bricked up which makes them dark. The hotel is located next to a hostel. Our room shared a common wall with the hostel and although you could not hear voices through the wall, every time anyone dragged a chair across the tiled floor in the common meal and bar room (open 24 hours) you could hear it through the wall. Despite the double glazed windows the noise from the many open-air restaurants in the street below disturbed our sleep. Most nights it died down around 2am but one night it went on until 4.30am. The breakfast was very disappointing. We were the only patrons at the hotel and we were given one egg, one bread roll, selection of jams, 2 small pieces of packaged cake, a few slices of tomatoes and cucumber and tea or coffee. The refrigerator did not efficently cool. Free internet usage in the foyer if you had your own computer. I would not stay at this hotel due to the noise despite its great location. Paid 60Euros per night.

I have been to this hotel and I found that it was too expensive for what I got (the furniture in the room was quite old and the breackfast was poor)
