Yusuf did a fantastic job with communication and the welcome was lovely. The hotel is exactly as pictured and the decor and furnishings are really tasteful, comfortable and well chosen. The small kitchenette, sauna, personal size hammam and gym in addition to its brilliant central location literally steps from some excellent restaurants and some of the most amazing architecture in Istanbul make this really superb accommodation value in Istanbul.

There were a few things here and there that require a little attention to detail to be addressed- None of them on their own are a problem, but after a few days you do begin to notice. If those little things can be sorted, then this would move from being a "very good" to an EXCEPTIONAL place to stay.

That said, would I visit again? Yes. Would I recommend that you visit? Yes. is it good value? Yes. Is there still some fine tuning work to be done just to take care of the last tiny details and make it AMAZING? Yes :-)
