“In my opinion, this renovated Ottoman-era hotel places guests in the Sultanahmet district, steps from major historical sites. Breakfast on the rooftop terrace promises views of the Blue Mosque and Marmara Sea, while a complimentary afternoon tea adds a touch of Turkish hospitality.

the staff was friendly and helpful (i guess that's their job, though). the location was close to major attractions, a plus.
The breakfast was pretty basic, nothing special to look forward to each morning, i mean, seriously basic. also, the room i got initially felt a bit cramped for the price. I seemed like i was in a shoebox. Sleep was a luxury, not a guarantee.
