The room looks the same as pictures. The mattress doesn't have the best quality neither bed sheets. Staff are friendly and helpful. there is high slope to get to Taksim, but not a big deal. it's less than 5 min walk anyway. The neighborhood is not appealing but the hotel is very close to the main street. There was some strange noise for the automatic water system. The ventilation is not perfect, you may need to leave the windows open. there was no view from the windows. I stayed in first floor. The location is great.
