A very pleasant stay, the hotel was a bit dated and the room had a dry water patch there wasn'ta tv ( which doesn't worry me but may do for some)there was a room safe.... , stairs for some could be a bit tricky..( a spiral type) . The staff were really helpful and friendly , the hotel is situated in a back street which is cobbled, but a 3-5 minute walk from the blue mosque/ hagia sofia
