We stayed at Sultanahmet Gardens once last month on our way to vacation, and once again last week on our way back home. Our second stay was just as comfortable as the first, and Tansel proved to be a most gracious and patient host by waiting for us to arrive in the evening, since we had decided to visit Topkapi Palace and take a ferry ride across the Bosporus straight from the airport instead of going "home" first (all of the host's recommendations for sightseeing were spot-on). The AC unit had not been replaced yet, but Tansel provided a fan that helped keep the room cool. The WiFi worked just fine this time as well, which was of great help. Unfortunately we did not have time for breakfast again, even though we enjoyed it so much the first time and recommend it. All in all, we could not have been happier with our lodging in Istanbul. The location, price, cleanliness, and host were all top-notch!
