great location fresh eggs
The location is great, close to the Blue Mosque. The tram station is also very close, allowing quick travel to the grand bazaar. Breakfast on the terrace was a highlight (i loved the views). Freshly cooked eggs were available each morning.
The towels felt a little thin.

location is good, but issues exist
street noise limited breakfast
the room felt smaller than i expected, not matching the photos online. i could hear noises from outside at all hours because the windows are not soundproof. it was difficult to sleep some nights due to street noise. also, the breakfast selection got old fast, because the choices seemed limited.

Acceptable Location, but Several Issues
cigarette smell broken shower
The hotel's location proved convenient.
The room smelled strongly of cigarette smoke. The shower stall was broken and in need of repair. I found the breakfast offerings to be quite disappointing.
