This place with the staff of that adorable family that consists of Ahmet, Esin, and their respectful father Omer bey, has the best thing of any family business, the friendly warm adorable comfy cozy atmosphere and hospitality. I visited Istanbul 6 times so far, this so far was the best one ever, so close to the main touristic attractions like Hagia Sophia- Blue Mosque, Grand Bazar,,, etc , So close to the direct to airport bus, so close to the transports, yet, it has a quite peaceful corner that there is no noise around. I even lost all of my money (which had fallen out of my bag without noticing) and they found it and returned it back without a missing cent in 10 minutes . With that amazing AC which usually are not found in Istanbul I experienced a peaceful sleeping that I did not sleep like in last 2 years. This facility will be my destination for every coming journey for me to Istanbul. And TBH I prefer it over a 5 stars Sheraton.
