Adequate stay

convenient location galata tower proximity accommodating staff helpful staff reasonable selection breakfast selection signs of mould bathroom mould noise isolation poor noise isolation elevator issues temporary service
The hotel's proximity to the Galata Tower was convenient. The staff was friendly and accommodating. They helped with directions. Breakfast offered a reasonable selection of items.
The bathroom showed signs of mould, I found this unappealing. The noise isolation wasn't great. Sounds from neighboring rooms were audible. The elevator had some issues . It was temporarily out of service.

The staff were very helpful. They provided recommendations for exploring the area. The hotel's location is near the Galata Tower. Public transport is just a few minutes walk.
The room was on the first floor so it was pretty dark. The mattress was not particularly comfortable. It was hard. I found a lack of plugs in the room. There is only one light controller next to the entrance door.
