I had a wonderful stay at the hotel, especially enjoying the great rooms and friendly service. The location was fantastic, with a beautiful view of the Marmara sea. However, the dining experience was a bit lacking in options. Overall, it was great value for the money.

Upon my stay at the hotel, I found the rooms to be smaller than expected, with a very small toilet and sink. However, they did have comfortable work desks, which was great for working on projects. The service was a bit lacking in promptness and friendliness at times, but overall, the staff were professional and helpful. The location was convenient, albeit a bit away from the city center, easily accessible by public transportation. The dining experience was pleasant, with a variety of options available. The facilities were decent, though not exceptional for the price paid.

The hotel is located in a good and quiet area, close to the sea and away from the crowded parts of Istanbul. The rooms are okay but small, with a constant smell of cigarette smoke. The service was lacking friendliness and privacy invasion was an issue. The dining options were decent but with limited variety. The location offers convenience depending on your plans in Istanbul.

Although the rooms weren't as clean as shown in pictures, the staff moved me to a quieter room with very comfortable work desks. The service was excellent, especially Emine who provided great tips, but some amenities like Turkish bath and massage were not available due to a lack of employees. The location was convenient for my purpose, but there were ongoing constructions nearby. The dining experience had a large variety of options either in the restaurant or outside by the pool.

I was excited about the prospect of a full ocean view, but the standard room left much to be desired. The room was uncomfortably hot, and the persistent smell of cigarette smoke was off-putting. On the upside, the hotel location was peaceful with a beautiful sea view, especially near the Fiskhane dining area. However, the reliance on taxis for travel could be inconvenient.

The rooms, although not meeting my full ocean view expectation, were standard for this type of hotel. They were too hot for my liking, and the cigarette smoke smell lingered.

The hotel was fantastic with amazing views of the sea from the top floor. The rooms were incredibly comfortable, and the extended hours breakfast was excellent. The only downside is that it is far from everything except the airport.
