The location is fantastic. it is in the heart of fatih. it is just a 5-minute walk to the grand bazaar and a 10-minute walk to the sultanahmet square. the rooms were quite spacious. I recommend taking breakfast, the food was delicious.

The beds were too soft for my liking. the shower was leaking, and it was hard to use. i found noise isolation to be poor. I could hear almost everything from outside.
