The hotel left me with a double impression, and I would like to share it in more detail.
The positive aspects include the convenient location of the hotel in the center, which provides easy access to the main attractions of the city. It was nice to return to the room every day, which was cleaned, which created comfortable conditions for relaxation after a day spent exploring the city.
However, there are serious drawbacks that have significantly affected my overall impression of the stay. Firstly, breakfast at the hotel turned out to be excessively monotonous, and on the third morning it became a real test. The lack of variety in the menu led to a rapid saturation of the same type of dishes, which was disappointing.
However, the most unpleasant moment was to find out upon check-in that I had been “upgraded” from a single room to a triple room without warning or the opportunity to refuse. The room turned out to be very bad, being on the ground floor near the elevator, which created a constant noise from the elevator and voices from the reception. In addition to this, the smell of sewage constantly beat from the toilet, which seriously spoiled the impression of my stay, on the first day, until I persistently asked, there was a dirty soap dish in the shower, which was eventually not cleaned, but simply unscrewed from the wall. The window is at the basement level, so the feeling that you are sitting in a dungeon, the room is cold, the heater and air conditioning did not save you. This experience significantly spoiled the impression of staying at the hotel, even though on the last night I was moved to a single room that I had originally booked, the quality of which I had no complaints (but I understood that I was lucky, they could leave me in that terrible room until the end of my stay).
Overall, despite the convenient location and good room service, disadvantages such as monotonous breakfast and substandard relocation seriously affected my overall impression of the hotel. Stay away from room 105, or specify 10 times which room you will be accommodated in when checking in.

A cozy hotel with a sympathetic character who speaks excellent English. The breakfasts are quite normal.
Since this is a boutique hotel, do not count on spacious rooms - they are very small)
One of the main advantages is cleanliness (daily cleaning in the rooms and on the terrace), a very convenient location relative to the historical center (Sultanahmet stop), and the main highlight is the roof terrace with a very beautiful view of the sea, Hagia Sophia. The terrace is open around the clock and you can have wonderful dinners on it!
