Summary: Excellent stay in Istanbul - a beautiful small hotel tucked away but close to everything. Didn’t have an elevator but they helped keep all our luggage for us - service and staff were super helpful, great English and breakfast on rooftop with view was spectacular! Again hotel owner and staff were incredible with an early check and help with bags.
