I have stayed in budget double room with twin beds, 48 "flat screen TV and a balcony for 3 nights. The beds where bad here, however it was a really great stay all in all. Marvellous and favourable location close to Beyoglu.
Wi-Fi was quite slow, made me a little nervous.

Liked that the hotel was stunningly beautiful, comfortable decor in the rooms. I stayed in the room that was painted and available with a double bed, beautiful views, terrace. The service was excellent, the staff were responsive. The location was unbeatable for traveling around Istanbul, close to buy all sorts of things, restaurants. Again, a cobblestone street was within walking distance.

Quick room service. Beyoglu and other tourist destinations were situated a few steps away from this place.
For us it was ideal.
