It was so and so. The room was very cold upon arrival called the reception, they said they would send a technician right away. After some time and no technician i called again and was informed it was standard for all rooms that they are cooled. Complained that they did not call and inform me this, instead they let me wait for a technician some time. Then the technician came after I complained and turned the heating on. The location of the hotel is great. The staff needs more training they do not say hi or anything just look away.

Located very close to where all the cruise ships dock in Istanbul and in the heart of Karakoy. Convenient location to get to other parts of Istanbul. Room looked a bit dated but was quite functional. The rooftop bar was a nice place to grab a drink with a view of the Bosphorus.
