Unique inn in an excellent location

− Everything was great. If I had to mention anything it would be no elevator and small rooms but a minor inconvenience made up for by the charm and location.

8.0

Struttura con un grande fascino, alcune sale dell ingresso del hotel sono piene di storia, bellissima la struttura sia esternamente che all interno, posizione centralissima vicino santa Sophia. Terrazza stupenda da farci decine di foto

− Purtroppo la struttura anche se bellissima è un po' abbandonata a se stessa, c'è poca cura per i dettagli, se ci fosse più attenzione potrebbe essere una dei posti più belli di Istanbul. Anche la colazione è molto basic e scarsa. La terrazza in particolare andrebbe curata di più
