While the property was not so easy to find in the first instance as it is on a side street, once checked in and familiar with the navigation, it is a stone's throw from the popular Istiklal Street and Taksim Square. There is a tram stop Tophance and metro stop Sishane within walking distance, which makes it convenient to go anywhere in Istanbul. Even though there are lots of bars and pubs nearby, our room on the 4th floor was quiet as it faced the residential blocks behind. Ask for Room 8 if it is available. The service staff at the reception was most helpful and every request is attended to swiftly. Room is large, clean and we cannot ask for more. Internet connectivity was fast and good. I cannot ask for more at the price that we paid.
