Ogul was a super communicative host and helped me every step of my journey. The room is a simple economical option in a 3 story walk-up. The balcony faces an ally, but still good to have a place to smoke. The street can look dark at night, but it is full of families and felt safe for me as a woman traveling alone. Quick walk to Taksim. Powerful air conditioner, hot water. Thanks Ogul!
