The one great thing about this room is the location as it is very easy to walk to all the main sights of the old Islamic city. BUT the area was very noisy!! It seemed like there was non-stop construction going on all the time so it was very difficult to sleep. There was also a lot of traffic noise from cars running up and down the adjacent main street.

The room was also quite small and because of the noise we never used the balcony (which was also tiny!). There is a hotel right across the street so we also never opened the lace curtains as we could be overlooked very easily which meant that the room was quite dark.

The taxi service from the airport was great as it may have been hard to find it on our own. Although once we became familiar with the area it was easy to get to/from.

Lots of good fish restaurants in the area and so easy to walk to Blue Mosque, Grand Bazaar and tram.

Great area but a shame about the room. We would not stay here again.

Oh and, although the man who greeted us was very friendly he didn't seem to know much about the local area, it would have been nice to have some local tips on food etc.
