At first I had an unpleasant surprise with the transfer. I have called the day before to ask how much it would be from Sabiha Airport to the hotel, and they said 8 euros. I really liked the price, as I know some other hotels provide free shuttle for 3 or more days of stay. But arriving in the hotel, they have told me that it would cost me 80 euros, and not 8, maybe the accent on the phone mistakenly gave the wrong understanding. In the end they reduce a bit the price for the inconvenience, but it was still much more expensive then taking a taxi from the airport. As we entered the room there was in the bathroom some other guests underwear on the ground behind the door. We felt that the whole thing has not been cleaned, although it looked like clean. It was very unpleasant! The other small things is that they offer tea or coffee for free in the room (what is common in Turkish Hotels) but when you mentioned that it sounds that when you ask you're begging for something and they are being indulgent with the service, what I dislike. In general is a nice and clean hotel, not very far of the most important touristic attractions. The breakfast is fair, but could have more options, as fresh fruits, fresh juices, etc. The rooms are not big, but are comfort enough.

This is good choice for someone wanting a staff who are genuinely warm and caring, rooms with some character, a rooftop breakfast with a great view and a neighborhood neither overrun with tourists or in any way upscale. The neighborhood is gritty and working class. You can head east one block and find fish restaurants galore (with their standard tourist prices and comforts) or go another direction and get a bowl of chorba from one of numerous cafeteria joints where walking into them means walking back in time, to the Istanbul that survives yet is vanishing. You are six blocks from the metro line (a good hike up the hill) and an equal distance from ground zero of the Sultanahmet hotels. For my needs it was perfect.
