You feel very well taken care of.
Pros: The hotel is located in the historical centre and it is only a few minutes away from seaside, optimal to take a walk enjoying the view along a comfortable promenade, and about 15 minutes from Sultanahmet and public transport. The streets around the hotel are quite narrow, so, there is no real traffic. Breakfast is excellent with a great selection of typical products: olives, cheeses, different kind of salads among others, but also Turkish pastries. It is nice to be able to use the breakfast room also during the rest of the day to make coffee or tea, while enjoying a quiet time and the amazing view. The terrace offers a stunning view on the sea and historical sites. In front there is also a nice small park. The personnel is extremely kind, helpful and considerate. You feel very well taken care of.
Cons: On the first days one of the guests was making some noise in the morning, like bad cough, not clear what it was. Unfortunately it was loud in my bathroom and very unpleasant to hear, but except for these two times it was always very quiet.

Fantastic , a hidden gem and highly recommended
Pros: I am writing this as single traveller . The room was small but cosy, I went in the winter but the heating was on . I had a lovely balcony with a nice view . The breakfast was the best breakfast I had in terms of variety and taste and the balcony there had an astonishing view too . It was clean and cost friendly with very polite staff . I highly recommend ( this was the 7th or so hotel I’ve stayed in Istanbul ) it was also very close to the main tourist sites
Cons: Nothing that comes to mind at the moment maybe the immediate local area was somewhat isolated but it was a quiet back road to be fair

Wonderful small hotel with a friendly, welcoming staff and a breakfast to die for.
Pros: Great location in the historic district. Fantastic, friendly and informative staff. Plenty of choice for breakfast on the roof top terrace; with great views towards the Princes Islands. Get a room with balcony overlooking the park and sea.
