Great Stay

Perfect location for sight-seeing, smiling staff, all front desk clerks was realy helpfull , always smiling and ready to give us all information about city especially eran he realy know everything about to city better then google :) ; basic rooms but well serviced daily and all queries were met with happy. Close to all of the action of busy Sultanahment, a walk to the Grand Bazaar, Hagia sophia ,Topkapi Palace and a myriad of other Istanbul sites. Breakfast is served on the rooftop and you have gorgeous view of the Bosphorus and the Blue Mosque. the breakfast room turns in a cute little bar and restaurant- with impressive night views. We loved it and will definitely recommend it to others.

Do not stay here !!!!!

This place was an overpriced dump with one extremely obnoxious front desk clerk. Outside entrance to your room is poorly lit. Please check the Motel 6 a few doors down at $** which is comparable to the quality of this place. This place is an older garden style hotel in need of work. Room smelled of mold. A large cockroach greeted me when I got up to use the bathroom at night (thank god I saw instead of my wife). It probably got in under the door as you could see light when the door was shut. This was a major disappointment and a tourist trap rip off !!!!!

1st Stay=Great! 2nd Stay=Bad!

The location is nice since it's right off I-75 (exit 193) and there is a McDonalds, another eating place (forget the name), a couple gas stations, and a car wash right next to the hotel. The hotel is quite new and the furnishings, room decor, etc are all modern, new, and nice. Both times, our room had a mini-fridge and microwave (not sure if ALL rooms have this or not) Smoking rooms are available which is a big plus if you're a smoker. As others have mentioned, the beds are very comfortable, and they also have two each of FIRM and SOFT pillows which are labeled on the pillowcases. They also have a nice continental breakfast with a good variety of different foods. Our first stay was excellent- no complaints. However, during this last stay, the housekeeper entered/cleaned the room even though the "Do Not Disturb" sign was on the door, and then again, knocked on the door and woke us up the following day asking if we wanted our room cleaned even though the Do Not Disturb sign was on the door again. The front desk then called (and woke us up AGAIN) verifying that we didn't want our room cleaned. When I complained about the two visits, despite the sign being on the door as well as the phone call, the front desk person, instead of apologizing complained that the maid had mentioned that we had broken one of the ashtrays (which we accidentally HAD broken AND REPLACED!) Thought it was bad customer service that they complained about a broken ashtray rather than simply apologizing for the constant interruptions. The price is also too high in my opinion for the town it's in! We will NOT be staying here a 3rd time.

what a change

I have stayed at this hotel numerous times since it opened in 12/06. This last visit was not the same as the first visit. It continues to decline in cleanliness and the breakfast set ups. I changed rooms due to the dirty bathrooms. I still felt like I was sleeping in dirty sheets. Some of the security locks do not work!

excellent
