The hotel was kinda weird. Lugging my suitcase up several flights of stairs wasnt my idea of fun. plus, getting to the reception involved walking through some disused bar. it all felt a bit dodgy, ya know?

Solid Stay in Kadıköy

comfortable roombag storagecentral locationplumbing problem
The room was a very comfortable and restful place after my long days. Staff helped me store my bags before check-in. The location made moving around the area easy. It was also peaceful to rest in.
I noticed some small issues but the plumbing in the bathroom needs more attention. It caused some inconvenient odors. I think more frequent checks can improve this.
