Everything, the location within 5min walk to Sultanahmed square, 10-15min to Grand Bazar, 5min to tram M1, 2min from shops and restaurants, 5min walk from the sea. Emirhan and Dayanch were such a gentlemen, always ready to open and close the door for us, checking always if everything was ok, always willing to help with any inquiery we’ve had, ofered us tea or coffee. We felt very safe in the apartment and the area, it was very quiet street. Apartment (35m2) looked just like on the pictures, so clean with nice view and lots of windows. Bins were emptied daily in the apartment, they changed towels for us without asking. Overall we have no bad word to say, out stay was amazing. If i come back again to Istanbul i will definitely stay here again. 10/10

First impression. Absolutely welcoming from the Hotel Manager Mohammad. I made the booking, was thinking about airport transfer, and Mohammad messaged me asking if I needed this. He arranged it and made our arrival smooth and stress-free. We arrived late at night but were still able to check-in. Location was fantastic. Right behind The Blue Mosque, next to the SultanAhmet. Loads of nice eateries around us, including the hotel's own roof terrace restaurant. The views from the roof terrace are fantastic. Sea one side, the Hagia Sophia and Blue mosque on the other. Breakfast was nice, served daily to each individual (there were seven of us) by a lovely lady, whose attention to each person's needs was meticulous. There are small grocery/convenience stores in the immediate vicinity. Money exchange 2 mins walk away. A bazaar for all your souvenirs right in front of the hotel and the sellers were not pushy at all. Tram just 5mins walk away across the square. Overall a great stay, mainly because of Mohammad who looked after us well, and ensured we weren't overpaying for things and the lovely traditional breakfast in a cosy setting with views of the Blue Mosque. The location just could not be better. We've already decided to return next year and our stay will definitely be here.
