It was a bad experience, the air conditioner is always on heat mode, i don’t have the choice to choose the temperature. Couldn’t sleep all night

Everything was perfect

All the staff and service were excellent. We enjoyed it very much. The only thing that wasn't comfortable was the stairs, which were uncomfortable due to the shape of the room.

The room was incredibly stuffy. I woke up during the night gasping for air and felt the need to go outside. Although the rooms were small, the air conditioning wasn't set to cool, and I was drenched in sweat, so perhaps it felt cramped. Other than that, everything was great. The staff was friendly.

The hotel is in a very nice location. It is an apartment mostly preferred by students. The rooms are very clean. Especially the bed was perfectly soft and the pillows were wonderful. Thank you.

It is hard to find this comfort in Istanbul
I can easily say that it is one of the most comfortable places to stay in Ortaköy, even in Istanbul. It is easy to get to, close to the ferry, bus and everything. The room designs are wonderful, in a chaotic city like Istanbul, surrounded by greenery. As someone who has stayed here for about a year, returning to stay here after a busy day feels like taking a breath. Also, the staff is friendly and helpful. There is a reason why even the cats who have not left the lobby for 3 years choose this place.
