  Filthy & terrible service

  11 Jan 2016

  Arriving late we carried our own luggage up very steep stairs (each floor is two steep flights) to arrive in our non smoking room which reeked of cigarettes & had a full ashtray in the corner. The beds contained pubic hair and brown stains, the sofa was sticky. We popped out at midnight to get supplies & couldn't get back in until a small child arrived with the key. The 24hr reception had no one in sight so we had to wait til morning to ask for a refund and leave. We were laughed at and told they had our money so tough. I've stayed in many basic hotels for work but this was the dirtiest, smelliest and had the poorest service of any place I've ever been. It's cheap but one still expects cleanliness and politeness. Avoid!

  Friendly and helpful staff

  14 May 2015

  I stayed in the Yagmur earlier this month and found the staff to be really friendly and helpful, especially Erdel who was on reception for most of our stay. He couldn't do enough to make us feel comfortable. The room was clean, nice and modern and the wifi connection was excellent but being on the fourth floor with no lift did cause us a few problems. Although we had booked for someone to pick us up from the airport, no-one showed up and we had to catch a taxi to the apartment block; Yagmur use a company for airport collections and they were not aware that we had not been collected until we arrived and told them. On our return to the airport at the end of our stay, the Yagmur staff made sure we got a discounted journey back to the airport to make up for our non collection upon arrival. The area is fantastic, right in the middle of the seafood restaurant area in the old part of Istanbul and being next door to the prison caused no problems. There was noise from the nightlife until after midnight but not enough to cause a problem.The apartment block is walking distance, or a short taxi drive, to many of the sights of Istanbul although there can be steep hills to climb if you decide to walk, but the taxis are very cheap. I would recommend a stay at the Yagmur for a budgeted break in Istanbul.

  Budget hotel-good location

  04 Oct 2014

  located aptly right next to the hustle-bustle of the many restaurant/nargile activities around the fountain, which is specially celebratory on weekends. Though right next to a Prison on left side, and a little difficult to find through google maps, its owners are well accomodating. Walking distance to tourist sites of old istanbul. good rooms.

  Good value for money

  03 Oct 2014

  We stayed in a 5 person apartment which was spacious, comfortable and clean. The staff are very friendly and helped with booking taxis, recommending places to see, etc. The hotel is located on a very lively street with restaurants and shisha cafes and is walking distance from the main sightseeing spots in Istanbul. The only inconvenience we faced was when the power went out on one of the nights we stayed at Yagmur and the hotel didn't have a generator. Would recommend this place for the quality of the rooms and value for money.
