I had a mixed experience during my stay. The location is fantastic, being right in the heart of Istanbul's historical attractions. and the breakfast offered a good variety of options, particularly the delicious bread. However, my room was quite small, and I faced an issue with a strong smell of cigarettes that wasn't addressed properly. Overall, while there were highlights, some aspects left me wanting more.
