Staying in a seaview room was amazing with its own balcony overlooking a calm backyard followed by Hagia Sophia. The rooms are in desperate need of renovation, but the view is great.

The room was cozy, though a bit snug, but the outstanding service and facilities made up for it. The hotel seemed perfectly designed for a good night's sleep with its focus on comfortable bedding.
