Mr. Esat and the staff were very kind and welcoming. The location of the hotel is very good, it is close to the Grand Bazaar and the tourist area. I strongly recommend this tutor hotel to people who want to visit Istanbul.
Thank you!

I loved my stay in this small but cozy hotel in Istanbul. The owner and the staff are so kind and will help you with everything you need. The room was clean, the hotel is in a central area where everything is a 15-20 min walk; there are many restaurants and small shops to buy cheap; location is excellent. Carib who works at front desk is extremely helpful and will do his best to make your stay pleasant; he can arrange airport transfert and will give you advice. If i ever come back to Istanbul i will stay here again.

It was very clean and nice location. The staff was really friendly. But I suggested to families of three members not four because they gives you an extra bad but there will be no space. Wifi is really bad but you can buy a tourist sim card which is cheap.
