1. Sea view room is good but there is an improved at the rest room which the floor is not flat and cause the water on the ground of rest room with an unsensing smell. 2. Make a shielding on the ground of the rest room door which could prevent the waste water flow-in the living room.

Great budget-friendly option
This was a great budget-friendly option for Istanbul. It's within walking distance of many of the main tourist attractions and with good public transport connections. The staff were helpful and friendly and the breakfast was great. The only small issue was that the bathroom had an open shower in the style of a wet room, but did not have sufficient drainage and as a result it flooded every time we showered.

Don't choose single economic room at all , because it is mostly a cage not a room . You even can't open your luggage there and the bathroom doesn't have any space to take a shower and because it is located in the backyard next to the wall , is so noisy and you can't rest because of cars and neighbors who passes there.
