small room sink plug
the hotel's location is very close to the galata area, so getting around was easy.
My superior king room felt smaller than expected. the bathroom also lacked practical space. There was nowhere to put my things and no plug in the sink. the breakfast charge was excessive at eur 25 per person, so i found a cafe instead.

really good massage super clean room spacious terrace
The hotel provided a hammam, and the massage service proved really good. Housekeeping kept our room very clean each day.. the bed was always perfectly made. The terrace offered a huge space, with partial sea views plus views of the Galata Tower.
The room felt a little smaller than initially expected.
