Decent Stay near Attractions
convenient locationhelpful receptionistsnoisy kitchenearly breakfast
The location was convenient.. Sultanahmet and the Blue Mosque were only a short walk away. I was also happy that the receptionists, Dilnoza, Emir, and Abdullah, were friendly and helpful when I asked them for assistance.
My room was located in the basement, right next to the kitchen. One night, I heard a staff member start whisking eggs at midnight, very loud. Breakfast preparation also began at 6 AM every morning, causing noise.
