jin Young, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Me and my friend had a really good stay here. The hotel is really clean and the room was traditional in a really charming way. Has all the facilities and resources expected of a modern hotel. Staff are helpful and the lobby area is nice and spacious. The location is really quiet which is good after having a long day exploring Istanbul. Also a short walk from the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sofia. Grocery stores are also nearby but to reach the best areas and places to visit and eat in Istanbul you may have to travel a fair amount. Not as convenient as say Taksim or Galata area. Nonetheless a really good option for a stay in Istanbul, whoever it is you're with.
