underwhelming stay near galata

acceptable locationconstant noisepoor food quality
the location was acceptable, putting me close to many attractions.
I had a less than stellar experience . the noise was a constant issue. I could hear everything through the walls, made sleeping difficult. adding insult to injury, the advertised breakfast variety was exaggerated, and the food quality left much to be desired. it seemed like cost-cutting measures were prioritized over guest satisfaction.

Acceptable Location, Notable Shower Issue

acceptable locationshowerfloor
The location was acceptable and close to the Galata tower.
The shower leaked all over the bathroom floor and into the hallway. I was forced to deal with staff in my room while trying to sleep. The staff whispered that this happens every day

The room was very clean. The breakfast on the top floor provided a great view. I also appreciated the hotel's proximity to the tram station. It made getting around the area very easy.
The shower leaked water onto the bathroom floor. The staff initially claimed no other rooms were available. This issue occurred in both rooms I stayed in. It seemed to be a common problem there.
