My stay was from July 5-11 of 2022. It had a good comfy bed, great shower/bathroom. The manager of the place (Ahmet) was very chill and laid back and helpful when I requested mini water bottles everyday.
It’s located about 2 mins away from the Gálata Tower and just outside restaurants to eat breakfast, deserts, lunch and dinner. Its a good 15 min hike to Istiklal Road (Istanbul is full of steep hills so be ready)It’s also a quick 12 min walk to the ferry to go to different sides of Istanbul. If you want to take the metro there is a station just a quick 7 min walk from the hotel (just be ready to buy a Istanbul metro card as it will save you money and time down the road, you can use the card for ferries too)
If I were to return to Istanbul, I would come back to this hotel again.
