The place and location are exact as picture. We 3 persons stay on the 5th floor. there is no elevator but we have one nice and friendly guys name Emin to help us carry all bags up.
we did not have chance to meet alihan but he send assistance Emin to help us
the room is relatively small for 3 person but just very compact for backpacking
we run out of Turkish Lira and Emin help us to go to do exchange though it is late at night
The heater is not really working well but get Emin to fix it
The TV is not working but we hardly find time to watch it anyway
The place is walking distance to grand bazaar iatanbul university and all tourist area.
If u look for place just to stay close to town for walking tour, this is a place for u
