Hotel Real Life

From the outside the hotel doesn't look like much but it's really lovely inside. The reviews from a few years ago seem really awful so either, the hotel really upgraded itself or reviewers were being unfair in their judgement. Staff work really hard and are very attentive to their work. The free breakfast buffet is absolutely lovely. The staff pay careful attention to all of the plates keeping them well stocked.I really enjoyed the choice and variety.
As for the actual rooms,the shower is a good size and the toilet has an 'anti drop lid'. Now this may seem unimportant to some but Turkiye seems to have an issue with flimsy toilet seats, that lid dropping on you is annoying and gross. The hotel doesn't have that problem. They've have installed 'anti drop' lids. I really appreciate this attention to detail.
It also has a kettle in the room and water is topped up with room service. Unfortunately the mini-bar wasn't working nor the television I informed them of this and help was offered immediately. (That said I think I was out when they came, and I waa leaving soon) They seem to be very deliberate in their upkeep of the premises.
The bed was okay, I slept comfortably. Linens were clean but a bit worn-nothing excessive though. The room wasn't overwarm or cold the heater maintained a steady temperature.
I found all members of staff very helpful and charming.

Now for the area, it is brilliant for getting anywhere. There are so many places to eat (especially close to the wonderful Ethiopean restaurant and Malaysian) and loads of Turkish food around, too much to mention. It's not posh or snooty, it's gritty. So if that is not your thing you may want to look elsewhere. But for anyone else, I would recommend this hotel and I would definately go back.

Such un amazing and comfortable place… Nice breakfast, great location from where you are in the perfect spot to visit all the city attractions, lovely staff and very clean rooms
I suggest Real Life Hotel !

I was very pleased with the cleanliness and the attentiveness of the staff. I will come again. We were very comfortable with my family. The breakfast was really good.

The location is good and the transportation is very convenient. The subway, bus and airport bus are just a few steps away.

I stayed for two weeks here .. it’s very suitable for a single man 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

A good hotel especially the services..
and I don't forget the nice treatment of Ms Leyla, Ali qasem and Vedat
