Gedikpaşa armenske protestantiske kirke

Cihangir er en fantastisk område i Istanbul. Hotellet lå i et fint strøk og ble tatt godt i mot i resepsjonen. Rommet var litt for lite å brette ut kofferten men det var rent og fint. Det var gratis vann til kaffe og te. Bra mengde med variert pålegg og annet til frokost men det forandret seg dagen etterpå. Siste dagen var det masse med pålegg som trekker litt ned. Badet var ikke helt ren i min mening med flekker på søppel bøtte og vasken hadde også flekker så igjen som gjør at det trekker ned.

Flott og serviceinnstilt personale. Hotellet ligger flott til for trikk, severdigheter og shopping. Små rom, men veldig rent og ordentlig. Rikholdig frokost. Et veldig hyggelig opphold. Anbefales.

I realize now, a week after coming back home, that we got a tiiiny economy room in the basement, even if we booked and paid for a bigger, standard room (which clearly had natural light and windows on the pictures, unlike the basement...) I guess i was in a good mood and didnt realise at the time but this is really NOT okay. Positive points: the staff is very friendly and the neighborhood is SO pretty and cosy, also very close to the touristic area while being very quiet. Negative points: the smell in the room is AWFUL (i dont know if it smells like passion fruit or cat pee but it´s bad, and since you cant really open the window it lingers and makes it hard to sleep), no space to open our luggage, and on our last day there was no hot water (its an old house in an old part of town so it can happen, and in the end it didnt matter too much, it´s almost a fun memory). Also the TV is not working but we werent there to watch tv so it was ok.
