The property was entirely different from that mentioned in the website, there was mould in the room and no heater and no hot water. I’m giving 2 stars for the old man who was working there and he was so friendly but only knows the local language.

The staff was very friendly and welcoming on the phone. We stayed in room 505 on the 5th and last floor. It was decent with a kitchen counter equipped with a stove, a sink, and a few cups and teabags. There was also a hair dryer, a TV, and an AC (and a heating system for the winter). The things that could be improved would be attaching a proper shower head holder, and completely closing the gap in the bathroom’s ceiling as it lets insects in. The bedsheets were washed but had a thin layer of dust that could be brushed off. Overall a good value for money.

Otelin konumu çok iyi. Buzdolabı, klima, TV VS. İyiydi. Banyo ve wc çok küçüktü. Parkeler Aralık olmuş perdeler görevini yerine getirmeyecek kadar eski. Balkonu ana caddeyi görüyordu çok beğendik. Odalar temizdi. Genel olarak fiyatına göre gayet başarılı tekrar gidersem tekrar tercih ederim

Berbat bir yer kesinlikle gitmeyin!! Hiç resimlerde göründüğü gibi değil! İyi yorumlar ya satın alınmış ya da fake hesaplardan oluşturulmuştur. İnanmayın. Biz gittik bin pişman olduk. Tuvaletten gelen kötü kokuyu mu anlatsam, pis nevresimleri mi. Klimadan çıkan suyu bir hortumla pet şişeye aktarmaları mı ya da neredeyse bütün duvarın küf tutmuş olmasını mı. Yatak kırık, tuvalet ve duş kabini pis. Havlu tuvalet kağıdı vs. yok. Mutfak berbat durumda her taraf pis. Pirizler nerdeyse tavanda, telefonu şarj etmek mümkün değil. Pencerelerden içeriye soğuk hava giriyor. Biz üç gün konaklayacaktık.. İstanbul’a gece vardığımız için bir geceyi mecbur burada geçirdik ama inanın ceketlerimiz ve ayakkabılarımızla yatakta uyuduk. Ha tabi o kötü kokuları almamak için burnumuza maske taktık ama nafile. Öyle pis, iğrenc ve korkunç bir yerdi. Apartmana bakan kişiye şikayetlerimizi bildirince ilk defa duyuyormuş gibi davrandı terbiyesiz. Kalmadığımız iki gecenin parasını geri alamadık. Az para vermiyoruz o paraları alkole vereceğine apartmanı yaşanacak bir yere çevirebilir. İstanbul’da güzel vakit geçirmek istiyorsanız buraya kesinlikle gitmeyin!!

It was very easy to find and to get into. Clean sheets, comfortable bed, everything worked, we could easily heat the rooms. Bathrooms Were spotless. Price definitely had a good return. Highly recommend it. Great to ace ground floor rooms if you can't climb steep staircase of this beautiful Ottoman era stone house. Excellent location
