The room, the restaurant, and the arranged transportation to and from the Istanbul Airport were excellent. The staff was friendly and wanted to help. It is not luxurious, but it is clean, practical, and near the airport. Many of the cabin crews of different airlines stay there.

The room was spotless and filled with necessities-shoe polish, coffee and tea and even a minibar. The cleaning lady was available throughout the day and very obliging. I cannot say enough about the reception. They made sure I was comfortable and they arranged for tours and answered questions.
