The hotel location is very good . It's near Bakırköy Marmmary station (about only 5 minutes walk ) and it's also near Bakırköy Sahil Parkı. The place is quiet most of the day with the exception of early hours of the morning when the architecture activities noises are very loud. Many good restaurants are found and also shopping places. The staff are very friendly and helpful especially Furkan. The breakfast was good.

The loud noises of surrounding buildings construction in the early morning. The rooms were not very large.

Location, beds, nice room

Checking in...i requested earlier check in. It was told room will be ready 12.00. Then we came back 12.00, room was not ready. Then it has been told 30 min later it will be ready. Again not ready. At the end it was ready 12.55. After a night flight and no sleep and after requested days before and not really good communication between staff i was not pleased about this. Hopefully this will be better next time. Still the staff did their best. More variation in the breakfast. Everyday the same is a bit boring.

This was my second stay at the hotel, and again it was great. The staff are amazing, and I especially appreciate how they helped me arrange a taxi from the airport at the last moment (necessary due to bad weather). The staff also brought a fruit basket to my room, which was great, because I came in late and didn't have the chance to get dinner. I also really love Bakırköy, which is a very lively and fun local area.

Although my room was at the end of the corridor, there was still some noise coming from other rooms. There was also a strange smell in the bathroom (like standing water).

The Hotel offers a good breakfast and the rooms look nice.

The first room I got was directly located at the staircase which was connected with the kitchen. I woke up in the morning from the noises from the kitchen and the employees. Thanks to Mina I got a new room really quick at the same day which was not that noisy.

I had a great stay in a truly authentic and local area in the city! The hotel is located in a quiet part of an otherwise bustling and active area, full of shops and restaurants. The hotel is also very well connected, with a direct bus to the airport and a metro station into the center nearby. The staff are all great and very friendly and helpful. A special thanks goes to Doğukan, who upgraded my room for free.

The wifi in the hotel did not always work so well, but generally it was okay. The electricity socket next to the bed in my room was in a strange location (next to the headboard), which was a little inconvenient.
