The reason for giving this place 3 stars is because of the politeness of the owner who we came across on our last day. Worst service by the staff (except the girl), the chubby guy at the hotel started banging on our door at 19:00 hrs shouting to make our crying son quiet who was not feeling well and thus crying. Whereas, we were disturbed daily by the loud music he was playing even around 23:00 hrs. Apart from playing loud the guy was either smoking all the time just outside the hotel door with all the smoke coming inside or bossing around on the poor girl working. This guy is full of bad energy, I hope the owner puts things in order if he wants his hotel to be not ruined by this guy.

The accommodation was very nice and close to the city's attractions. The breakfast was rich, and the host was very welcoming and helpful. We would definitely visit again.

Budget friendly stay with view of Blue mosque and Hagia Sofia. Breakfast was splendid and satisfying.The property and the cafe have a boho vibe which was very cool.The owner and the staffs was very friendly. Highly recommended if you want to wake up with the 1000$ view budget friendly.
This property doesn’t have any elevator . So be prepare to climb flight of steps.

What a brilliant location right opposite the Blue Mosque and 20 metres from the Egyptian Obelisk. If you want a standard hotel go somewhere else but if you want an interesting and fairly unique experience of Istambul stay at this hotel. The hotel has a bar/restaurant fronting onto the square which is a good place to sit, relax and enjoy a drink or some food, which is good. The owner is larger than life and seems to enjoy every moment of running the place. I'll return next time I'm in Istambul.

A very nice hotel quite central to the touristic places in the old city what with it being right in front of sultan Ahmet mosque. The hotel is a family run cosy but vibrant hotel. We had a massive breakfast every morning included with our room. The restaurant downstairs was always open for a quick drink, baklava or even fresh meals whenever you fancied. Definitely will go back again.

The best location wise. The owner is very hospitable however I think needs extra staff to help him. Our stay included breakfast. We asked for breakfast earlier as we had an early tour one day and he was unable to give us although a sandwich would have been ok hence a star less. He was very apologetic though and explained. However, ended up looking for breakfast early in the morning before the tour. The food served is from a cafe he runs connected to the hotel.

Coffee looks like not Lavazza, too much roasted. Cost higher than usual. Feel sad

The staff is super friendly and helpful, Charlie deserves an extra badge for being cute. The location is extremely fine, only 5 minutes walk from Blue Mosqe, Ayasophia, the Museum of Islamic arts is literally the next building. One of the bazaars is the opposite side of the square. Taxis have trouble finding it, as the square is closed from vehicles and not visible from the road, but it's enough to know that it's in front of the obelisqe. The rooms are neat and organized, they have everything you need for a short trip. The food they serve is nice and a generous quantity. Extra thanks to Mohammed for his attentive attitude.

Small hotel with friendly staff. Cleanliness in the room, there is everything you need - hairdryer, toiletries, slippers. The room has a kettle, coffee, tea, sugar. But we didn't use it. The cafe on the ground floor always offers hot tea or Turkish coffee.

Great view from the penthouse. good wifi. Clean and fresh linen. The rest is all broken or not working, dirty windows, lazy staff. Breakfast would have been better if it hadn’t been. The location and the price are great.
