Decent hotel, you get what you pay for!
Decent hotel and a short walk from Sultanahmet mosque as well as the Grand Bazaar.
Some parts around the hotel look dubious but good restaurants at a short walk. Nevertheless, felt safe walking at night.
Room was warm and not to our liking since the central heating was on though temperatures outside was 12C+ but that just comes down to individual preferences.
Main issue was the wi-fi which didn’t work for the first few hours and then kept dropping after the IP address configuration was manually entered (with help from the reception). Ultimately, figured out that the issue was due to everyone being given the same IP address information by the reception leading to IP address conflict! Fixed it by using a slightly different IP address

Fiyatına göre gayet güzel hizmet
Kumkapı bölgesinde olması nedeniyle gece güvenlik ve gürültü endişemiz vardı. Ancak bu endişelerimizin yersiz olduğunu anladık. Çok yakında gürültülü mekanlar olmasına rağmen gayet rahat bir konaklama oldu. Otelin 50m yakınında banliyö treni istasyonu var ve rahatlıkla Sirkeci 'ye erişilebiliyor. Tarihi yarımadaya ise 15 dakika yürüme ile ulaşabiliyorsunuz. Bence fiyat performans noktasında çok iyi bir tercih. Sınıfına ve fiyatına göre gayet güzel hizmet veriyor.

A major plus is a train station one minute walk from the hotel where a train can take you in one stop to the main touristic attractions and in two to the main rail station.

Overall for the price it was good. My room was on the first floor toward the street and due to several cafes and eating places, people were sitting outside until 2:00am and talking loudly and made it difficult to go to sleep. Overall the room was good and breakfast was good as well.

Excellent Sultanhmet area choice.
Erman was an exceptional host. I was made comfortable and felt at home the entire time.
I was pleasantly surprised at how quiet it was. It was a walking only area other than taxis and so on. Many restaurants just out your door. 5 mins to sea walk, bus and train stops. Walk to most attractions. A great place to stay.
