“The spacious, multi-level rooms, some with kitchenettes, make longer stays exceptionally comfortable; its location, though discreet, offers a safe and quiet base a short walk from the Galata Tower and Tophane tram stop. The staff's attentive service truly stands out, as they readily assist with everything from local tips to arranging city services. In my opinion, this property presents real value for travelers wanting both independence and support.”
