Two of us stayed there the last four days of September 2024.  Terribly disappointed.  First night our room was not available, because supposedly previous guests had created plumbing problems.  Then we were moved to a room without two beds but were told this room was quieter and had a view of the Bosphorous.  I had initially booked a room with two beds, a balcony and a view of the Bosphorous.  But alas it appears that none of that is available with one room.  The room with two beds faces the noisy street.  There is not sitting on the balcony as the balcony we had was more or less a fire escape.
The "lobby" is entered by doing down stairs to the basement level, which also houses the breakfast room and kitchen.  While the food was decent it was never ready by 8am and the view (none) clearly stank. One could eat outside on the street where management placed some tables and chairs.
The bedding does not have fitted sheets so the sheets slide up all night.  Don't look under the bed!  Little to no closet space, little to no table area, etc.  There was a hot pot, small fridge (not plugged in).  I will say that the water in the shower was great and the bathroom was remodeled albeit TINY, but given the age of the building it is understandable.
If you can't navigate steep stairs this is NOT the place for you.
I thought I did my homework but I also felt there was false advertising with this place.
If I heard "no problem" one more time, I was going to lose it.  No problem means NO PROBLEM for them.
Location is good but there's lots of choices in the area so look around.

Good location and helpful staff.  But rooms ruined and need renovations. Almost no socket.

May 2022- Great place to stay. Near to tourist spots in Sultanahmet, cute and romantic interiors. There are no lifts so you have to carry your baggage up the stairs. Great view from the balcony and super friendly staffs.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at the romantic hotel in Istanbul, and it was an enchanting experience. The spirit of the place, embodied by the gracious lady who owns the hotel, added a special touch to our stay. The attention to detail, personalized service, and the warm ambiance created a truly magical atmosphere. We're already looking forward to returning to this amazing place – a gem in the heart of Istanbul!
