Now I understand why all the reviews mentioned the location, its minutes away from the Blue Mosque and the Hagia Sophia, between parks and in a lovely part of the old quarter. Though most everything was within reach, it wasn't very easy to source ready made breakfasts in the area since most places opened rather late and we wanted more than cold pastries. The room we stayed in was comfortable, warm and clean, though being on the ground floor and overlooking the main street meant it got a bit noisy some nights with cars vrooming past the window. All in all, this is a great value for money accomodation.
