This is a very nice place with friendly people! My room was small, but very comfortable, quiet, and clean, with everything I needed. I stayed there for five days and felt very relaxed, like home. Thanks to the staff for their hospitality.

The location is perfect: close to the pier, metro and bus stops. Getting from Sabiha Gokcen Airport (SAW) was easy by metro, and if you need to get to Istanbul Airport (IST), it's also easy: just take the direct Havaist bus. The neighborhood itself is also very nice. I highly recommend this hotel if you're looking for a place to stay on the Asian side of Istanbul.

Very nice boutique hotel. It's very close to Kadikoy pier and major transportation buses. Check-in was easy. Staff is very friendly. Breakfast was delicious. Internet worked fine. TV has good channels. Hot water was hot. Rooms are a little bit small, but for the location of the hotel, it was good enough. . Staff was friendly. It was very clean.

Couldn't sleep at all as there was a club next door which was open during the week and there was 0 soundproofing.

Far from being 4 stars, this hotel has tiny rooms, very humble breakfast and lots of noise at night. And looks like someone has bought lots of fake reviews to boost the rating instead of actually improving the quality.

Update: After checking your profile you are a lier who is renting out tiny rooms and buying reviews. You can’t even write properly and use AI to generate the response, ironic indeed. I booked your place through Booking and submitted a formal complaint there after reading this “response”. Ciao!

Room is small but cozy. Service is excellent, but the wifi is the worst! Almost never connects and if it does was super slow.
Breakfast was ok, recommend skipping it.
Location is great

Clean but a very small one bedroom. The bed was OK size if you’re not too tall. Service people were very nice. I would definitely come back.

!!!! BED BUGS !!!!

The hotel location is perfect it’s a few minutes walk to the ferry and bus stop.. also a few minutes walk to the busy areas with restaurants and shopping. The rooms however are smaller than they seem online… toilets are small but if you’re not planning to hang out in your room it shouldn’t be a problem… the staff are extremely friendly and helpful. The breakfast buffet is from 8-10 am only and it’s just your very basic Turkish breakfast… but there are a lot of restaurants and options for breakfast within 2-5 minutes walk.

Share your experiences, help others make the right choice!
Think about what you would like to know if you were looking for a review about a place to relax. Please describe in detail what you liked and what you didn't.
