Decent experience

easy access metro station friendly staff prompt assistance small room wall view inadequate cleaning

The hotel location offered easy access to Taksim Square. Metro station was also nearby, i could reach it in minutes. The staff was very friendly, they were always ready to help.

The room i had was quite SMALL. The window faced a wall, disappointing. The cleaning felt inadequate on one occasion. I had to specifically request a more thorough cleaning.
