A great place to stay for exploring Istanbul. It was a perfect location, better than I imagined! It was quiet during the night but close to the action. Unfortunately had 2 cruise ships in our beautiful view of the sea and gave off lots of light pollution during the night. We also had smokers below us that smoked in the middle of the night and filled our place with the smell of smoke. It’s nice to have a miniature refrigerator to have cold drinks and to store leftovers. Samet left us a few waters and we appreciated this upon our arrival. Great shower, nice hot water. Our balcony was a great option to use at the end of our night. Just to warn you you have to climb 4 flights of stairs to get to the Penthouse- not for the physically challenged!
