  Owner is rude, dishonest, no hot water- Do not stay here

  20 Jan 2017

  We were stay for 7 days but had to leave on day 5 after having no hot water for 3 days, we were told it would be fixed multiple times and it was not done, when we requested that a refund of our tariff be given so that we could find other accomodation it was refused. The room was unclean and not the room we had booked, it had a small kitchenette but not enough crockery or cutlery for 2 people e.g 1 bowl for 2 people you can't even make breakfast! One of the chairs for sitting at the bench was broken, the duvet for the bed was for one person only, luckily we always travel with a blanket. Communication from the owner to his staff was poor at best, non existent most of the time. The staff were very friendly, helpful and I feel very sorry that they must work for this man. We missed 2 tours due to not being able to shower and having to hang around the room waiting for things to be fixed, no apology for this inconvenience either. The good thing about this place was the friendly staff and proximity to Taksim square and Istaklil Cd. We were informed by local people that the neighbourhood is not safe and my husband did have someone try to pickpocket his backpack. I hope you do not stay here.
