We stayed in this hotel on two separate occasions during our recent travel in Turkey because of its location near Sabiha Gokcen. The hotel has nice, clear rooms, and good Turkish breakfast, good wifi, etc. But what made this hotel a real gem was the Turkish hospitality. Whereas in more touristy areas of Istanbul, I felt frequently taken advantage of, the staff hear were a joy. They were incredibly helpful, warm, hospitable and made our stay. We left out bags at the hotel for a week between our two stays while we traveled around SE Turkey. We left our bags in our first room at check out and the hotel had already place our bags in our new room upon re-check-in. I also quoted the hotel staff an incorrect departure time for my flight and they went out of their way to make sure I wasn't going to miss my flight. The hotel is easily reached by short taxi ride from Sabiha or by E9 bus. It is also near the Princes' islands which made for an easy day trip during our brief 20hr stay in Istanbul after our travel around the rest of Turkey. Overall this was an excellent hotel and pleasurable stay.
