Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Away from the city centre — The hotel is in the Avcilar district, which is not central Istanbul. It's about 55 km from the airport, and guests need to rely on public transport or taxis to reach main attractions.
- Mixed value rating — While the location and breakfast are praised, the value score is lower than other categories, suggesting some guests feel the price doesn't always match the experience.
- No pets allowed — If you're travelling with a pet, this isn't the place—pets are not permitted on site.
- Limited soundproofing in some areas — While rooms are noted as quiet, the hotel is on a main road (D-100), so light sleepers might still notice traffic noise.
