The air conditioning was quite noisy, a real disturbance at night. the sound insulation proved inadequate. I could hear conversations and noise from adjacent rooms. IT WAS a DISAPPOINTING aspect, especially when trying to rest after a long day.

Göksel bey and other staff members were very helpful. They gave me directions to suitable places. The location is central to the İstiklal caddesi and the Cihangir suburb is within walking distance. Major attractions are accessible by metro trains and buses.
The hotel provided only two tea bags and two paper cups. Asking for more seemed to be a way to encourage tipping. The bathroom had a small ventilation window , i could hear water flushing from other rooms. The AC was a bit noisy and didn't work perfectly.
