“In my opinion, this hotel provides solid value, particularly given its location in the Sultanahmet area, even though the climb to reach it might test your fitness. Rooms with a fridge and kettle add convenience, though some may find the single rooms too compact. The helpfulness of the staff definitely stands out.”
