    The Most Horrible Place you may ever Stay in While in Istanbul!

    rating10 Sept 2022

    Poorly equipped, small, and smelling hotel!Small dark suffocating rooms, no space for movement, no space to put your staff or your luggage!No repair for broken lamps!No linen change for a week!No cleaning under beds! No cleaning for windows!Air-conditioner in front of the beds and very near to them. Result: we are all sick!!!!!Once you're sick never ask for help! Nobody will listen to you. We didn't ask; other people did, but certainly received no help of any kind!!!Insects of different kinds! It is literally "Ant"!!!!Terrible pillows, in case you find any! Small dirty and dark bathrooms!Bad quality soap and Shampoo! Unfriendly stubborn staff mostly refusing to talk any of the world languages nor to change any of the ugly rooms you're forced to accept! N.B. In the presence of Turkish guides or friends they become suddenly polite and friendly!Desk men in the reception, especially the morning guy is impolite, unfriendly, always angry (he smiled once, the day we left, probably whispering "Good Riddance" to our group!)Less than humble breakfast. You literally find nothing to eat nor to drink. Coffee was very bad and the coffee machine was broken the last day!!!!!! We starved (everything finishes at 8 am!) till we find the first coffee shop after going out. And in fact, the best thing to do is to leave the so called "hotel" as soon as possible. Of course, we couldn't change it because it was the agency's worst choice! In a word, if you ever respect yourself make sure, you, or your travel agency, will not book in the heart of ugliness: "The Grant Ant" Hotel!!!!!!!!

    Visited 10 places in Turkey, this was the worst hotel

    rating05 Dec 2015

    Very small rooms (hope you're not 1m90 and above), small bed, small shower, small tv. Noisy air conditioning, but still less noisy than the elevator next to my room, or the klaxons of Istanbul that didn't get much toned down by the windows. Close to the underground though, but that's about it

    Good placed hotel

    rating30 Oct 2015

    The hotel can hardly keep the starndards of a three stars hotel, but if your expectations are higher, look for something else! Cleam rooms, old baths but fubctional.The staff is very friendly and polite.Perfectly placed, 2 minutes walf from the tram station Aksaray. For everybody whom is here and interested in seeing the city and in need of an hotel just for sleep & breakfast, this is it!Breakfast is every day the same, but good enough and plenty of it.Advice for the travelling single womans, after midnigh, take a taxi from Galata bridge to the hotel (12-15 TL). In this neigbourhood are a lot of men in looking for prostitutes (we just found out today during our Bosporus tour that here are the most) and they look very creepy at you - no bad approach or anything!
