The most important advantage of the hotel is its location. It provides easy access to the main attractions. Within walking distance is the Galata bridge, through which you can get to the old town, the Galata Tower itself. There is a tram stop nearby. And a couple of minutes walk from the pier, from which you can get to the Asian part of the city by ferry.
The Karakey district itself deserves special attention, with many restaurants, bars and street food outlets. However, here lies the first disadvantage - noise until late at night. We stayed at the hotel in October. It doesn't seem to be the season, but at night it felt like you were in the epicenter of a party. The fun ends at about 2 a.m.
Of the advantages, there are also excellent breakfasts: the choice is not huge, but the products are high-quality, everything is delicious. Surprisingly, even the Turkish sausage was not bad. Breakfast is served on the top floor with panoramic views. From a close distance, you can see the church of Russian emigrants of the early 20th century on the roof of one of the houses.
I did not like the rooms: they are small, there is very little space. The safe is located under the bed, in a drawer, it needs to be fully pulled out to open the safe and if the drawer is not closed, you can painfully kick yourself getting out of bed. The pillows were terribly uncomfortable, and my neck ached after sleeping. The cleaning was timely and good. Bathrobes are provided only upon request at the reception.
The spa area is not large but cozy, the massage room does not work during the off-season, there is no staff at all in the pool area. Towels and water can be taken independently at the counter. The hammam works all day and no one monitors its condition, it is dry and hot, to use it you need to water it and wait for some time. However, in the absence of staff and other visitors, the spa area was completely at our disposal, which has its advantages. There is a small gym with everything you need.
In general, the hotel met my expectations, the price / quality is consistent

A good hotel, in the tourist center, it is very convenient to move around the city. The price tag is 120€ everything is clean, comfortable, there is nothing to get to the bottom of. But the main thing is, when leaving the hotel, turn left, walk 20 meters and find a street food court. Fish in pita bread, you can not pass by, there is always a queue of 10-15 people, I would try it, I came in the morning, first) IT'S JUST A GASTRONOMIC ORGASM, I recommend taking the time to stand in line.

A good guest, everything is nearby, if you want to slow down in the center of Istanbul, then you can come here. The price tag is 120€ breakfast is 300 lira, I went to other places, fortunately there is a huge selection of establishments nearby, as they say, there is everything from *** to a loaf. But the most delicious thing is nearby, turn left at the exit and walk 50 meters, street fast food, fish in pita bread, there will be a queue near it, do not go to others. But I didn't eat anything tastier in that area at all.
The hotel loves cats, in other things, as everywhere else in Istanbul, for this they have a separate plus sign.

A good hotel in the center of Istanbul.On the plus side, there are many cafes nearby, convenient access to architectural monuments, courteous staff, 24-hour reception.Of the cons, sound insulation! She is almost not there, every morning they woke up coughing behind the wall.I'm shooting a star for this.

A good hotel, there were no questions about the room, but we looked at the room before checking in. I recommend taking a higher one ), a good view from the terrace of the restaurant, breakfast is not a super Turkish option , but you can choose something, and yes it is not noisy in the evening from the street, near the port and everything you need is within walking distance.
