Convenient and affordable!
Super convenient location and nice hotel. Despite being in the heart of Besitkas, this is on a quiet street where most restaurants are closed by dinner time so I had no trouble sleeping. Easy to walk to everything including the ferry. Great price too! My only complaints are that they wouldn't give an extra pillow and the motion sensor lights in the hall turn off too quickly. Overall great place though!

Tekrar kalmayı düşünmüyorum
Duş havluları lekeliydi. Otelden ziyade kiralık oda diyebiliriz. Tek avantajı ise bu kadar gürültülü bir lokasyonda kahvaltıcılar sokağında olduğu için akşam sessiz olması.

Vasatın altında
Odaya giriş saatinden yaklaşık 4 saat daha geç girmemize rağmen, çok ağır sigara kokusu vardı, saha sonradan kokunun yatağa ve yastıklara da sindiğini farkettik. Tek gece kalacağımız için günü dışarıda geçirdik ve pencereyi açık bırakmamıza rağmen koku çıkmamıştı. Ayrıca yarısından fazlası kullanılmış tuvalet kağıdı bırakılmıştı yalnızca. Bir daha tercih edeceğimi sanmıyorum.

Gayet iyiydi.
Beşiktaş'ın öok güzel bir yeribde, pek çok yere rahatça ulaşım sağlayabileceğiniz rahat , konforlu bir yerdi. Günlük veya kısa süreli planlamalar için oldukça uygun bir tercih, herhangi bir sorun yaşamadık, tekrar geleceğimiz bir yer.
