We atlrrived early morning and was great welcome by manager Mr Omar who help us and assisting us upon chk in.. The location is good but need to walk up hills to go to blue mosque or tram ride.
However they can be improved on the cleanliness and no lift. It's hard for all guests to walk up to their rooms with their big suitcases on those narrow stairs. Thank you again to the staff who are friendly and help us on carry our heavy bges.

Everything went very badly, it's not like the pictures at all. Absurd price for a tiny room without a bedspread and without basic hygiene tools. These people post photos of other hotels by scamming tourists by creating false expectations. There was not even a mirror in the bathroom and the floor was completely filthy. Really a complaint if I think I spent € 34 for a dump. DO NOT STAY IN THIS HOTEL IT IS A SCAM.

The apartment for eight people that we had booked was not available, so we were put in three separate units, all substandard to some extent, but one was truly appalling. We were told it was because they had changed their website (from *********** I presume) but this is an unacceptable excuse ... they should have informed us in advance and cancelled our reservation, or provided something else of comparable quality. What we actually got was three separate units. The first two were available soon after we arrived, the third one not until much later in the day. Suite 1 for 4 people consisted of 2 bedrooms, bathroom and kitchen with many broken features (shower had to be held in hand, exposed wiring, missing light bulbs etc) but at least this one had hot water and functional plumbing (if you count a hand held shower as functional). Room 2 (for 2 people) included a small kitchenette and bathroom, and there was no hot water. But the most unacceptable accommodation, which on reflection we should have rejected on the spot was the third unit, a room that was in the process of renovation, and would not normally be rented out (but due to the size of our party and the unavailability of any other accommodation in the establishment it was used). It should have been a double room with kitchen and bathroom. But the kitchen had been stripped out, so was just an empty room with workman's equipment in. And the bathroom had been almost entirely stripped out leaving just the toilet. No wash basin or shower. On the second evening the occupant returned to the room to find men working in there, who would not leave until they finished what they were doing. It is totally unacceptable for building/renovation work to take place in a room when a guest is checked in with belongings in the room.

Complete disgrace. Disgusting place, aweful. Cleanliness is below zero. I had not checked guests feedback before booking. Insanitary condition.

We book hotels with the intention of what we plan to do in them. White apart is very cheap so don't expect items from 4* hotel maybe even a 3*. I only wanted to sleep and shower, the rest of the day I'd explore Istanbul. For that reason, its location is what makes it great. If you want the typical Turkish experience with the other tourists, stay in Taksim. This hotel is near Beyazit so it gives you real taste of Istanbul. Visiting places such as the sultan ahmet and ayasohpia is a 10min tram journey. The walk to the tram station, you see every day Istanbul. Local food is cheap so no need for breakfast. Where I needed help from the hotel, they'd go over and above. It's a family run business so you can feel the authenticity of the people. Amazing place.

It's a disgusting place that doesn't pass through the filthy cockroach

Nice hotel in a quiet location Great reception by the officials Clean and quiet Close to tourist places and transportation and shopping near the coast
31.08.2019 Andrey
Good location. Air conditioning worked. They are not always cleaned and not very good. Bad, weak internet. Not enough cutlery and chairs (there were four of us). There are not enough shelves and hangers in the bathroom, the shower mount was broken, but this is not critical. In general, everything was fine with us, but do not expect too much from this place.

Very poor apartment hotel, not worth the price they take
