My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms, though small, were very clean and comfortable. The service, unfortunately, was quite disappointing as the staff appeared rude and unhelpful. On the bright side, the location was fantastic, offering easy access to transportation and being close to the best areas of Istanbul. The dining options were satisfactory but not as great as expected. The facilities were decent but could use some improvement.

I loved the location of this hotel, so convenient and close to Taksim Square. The rooms were modern and comfortable, though a bit cramped with the extra bed. The staff was mostly helpful; however, we had some communication issues. The dining options were minimal, but the Pork Belly was seriously yummy!

The hotel offers a spacious and modern room with a separate sitting area, LCD TV, and a partially openable window providing a view of the city. The service is extremely friendly and helpful, although lacking in professionalism at times. The location is excellent, just minutes away from Taksim Square and Istiklal Street. The dining experience is better than average, but not up to the standards of a 4-star hotel.

The hotel location is excellent, just a couple of minutes from Taksim and Istiklal Street, making any stay great. The rooms, though small, were very clean and quiet. The service had its ups and downs with friendly waiters who also worked as receptionists. Unfortunately, the dining options were limited and lacked variety. Despite some drawbacks, the location was the real highlight of this stay.

The hotel's location in Taalimhane, Taksim, is perfect for foreign tourists. However, the room was poorly cleaned and felt cramped with the extra bed. The Wi-Fi was unreliable, and there was a persistent smell of smoke in the evenings.

The hotel's location is perfect, very close to Taksim Square and convenient for exploring the city. The rooms are modern and nicely designed, though a bit on the smaller side, and the service is friendly and cooperative. The dining options are varied and satisfying, offering good value for the room price. However, the rooms smelled like smoke in the evenings, and the bath instead of a shower may not suit everyone's preference.

I had a pleasant stay at the hotel. The rooms were clean and great value for money, although not entirely soundproof. The service was good overall, with friendly staff, except for a minor incident with breakfast boxes. The location was ideal, just minutes away from the main attractions in Istanbul. The dining experience offered varied options but could have been better for a 4-star hotel.

The hotel's rooms were really clean, although they could be a little bigger, but overall, they were okay. The service was okay, but not particularly warm and welcoming. The location, however, was perfect and very convenient, close to the best areas of Istanbul. The dining experience was very normal with limited variety, but the homemade preserves were a nice touch.
