What a gem of a find! My husband and I used the airport pick up service to whisk us to our hotel. The van had big windows to enjoy the beautiful scenery. The staff at the hotel was delightful. Very kind and most accommodating. Breakfast every morning was more than we expected. The view from the top terrace is stunning. Our first night we enjoyed our tea from the very top floor and couldn't take our eyes off the Blue Mosque. Beautiful views! We were on the 3rd floor which was quite a hike without an elevator. The front desk man generously carried our bags up. Our balcony opened up to the smell of wisteria. The purple flowers welcomed us every morning as we awoke. We really enjoyed ourselves in our little room. The bathroom was smaller but everything worked fine. The location was convenient to everything. We walked all the way to the Grand Bazaar and Egyptian Spice market the first day and then we got the IstanbulKart for public transportation. Oh! The keychain was really heavy but we found out the second day you can leave your key at the front desk and pick it up when you return. Overall excellent experience.
