Reviews
As for the downsides, I would mention the lack of bottled water in the room. This is the first time I’ve encountered this, and it can be a problem because it’s not always easy to find a shop selling water in the evening. However, as a nice bonus, we were given free water from the minibar on the first day.
The rooms are also a bit noisy, but this is not really a drawback — it’s simply the price you pay for the character and age of the building.
Overall, I would recommend this hotel, but it’s better to stay here in summer.
The room was filthy. The floor was not cleaned, the walls were damaged, cracked, and dirty. The bedding was disgusting — the duvet was dirty and one of the pillows was yellow, clearly not washed. The whole place looked neglected and unhygienic. Anyone passing by outside could be heard as if they were standing inside the room. There was zero comfort and zero privacy.
I spent the entire night waiting for the morning just so I could leave. My money was completely wasted. This place doesn’t deserve even one star — it is a total scandal.
Everything about this accommodation was misleading. The photos online have nothing to do with the reality. What I paid for and what I received were two completely different things.
People should be warned to read all comments before booking, because this place is absolutely unacceptable and should not even be listed as an option.
I expect this situation to be taken seriously and proper compensation to be issued immediately.
The room they gave us was spacious, which I appreciated, but unfortunately, it wasn't very clean. The bed was also uncomfortable and felt uneven.
Another downside was that the room was located far from the main hotel building, so it felt like we were staying somewhere completely different. That was pretty inconvenient.
Overall, the experience wasn't completely bad, but there are definitely things that need improvement for a better stay.

One of the best parts is the breathtaking view. You can clearly see the Galata Tower, and the entire surrounding area is visible from the café. The panoramic view makes the whole experience even more magical, especially while enjoying a coffee.
The service was excellent, and a special thanks to the host, Muhammad, who was incredibly welcoming and attentive. He made sure everything was perfect and made us feel genuinely comfortable.
The seating is comfortable, the ambiance is peaceful, and the overall experience was fantastic. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a charming café with great hospitality and one of the best views in the city.
Will definitely visit again! ☕✨
Everything was fresh and delicious. Special thanks to Mr. Muhammet for his kindness and attention.
