The location is fantastic! It's a 10-minute walk to the Blue Mosque. If you head downhill, away from the tourist areas, you'll find the old European residential district, which has a ton of amazing and affordable food! I randomly tried a few places near the hotel, and everything was so cheap! Picture 1 shows a bakery very close to the hotel, where a sesame bagel only cost 20 Lira – that's 5 Lira cheaper than the stalls in the tourist area! Pictures 2 and 3 are from just a short walk downhill from the hotel. The meat roll in picture 2 was only 25 Lira, and both baklavas in picture 3 were a total of 20 Lira. I remember the kebabs were around 250 Lira too. What I'm trying to say is that this hotel is surrounded by a residential area, and there's even a primary school nearby. So, everything is genuinely inexpensive, not artificially inflated like in tourist spots, and it's all delicious! 😋
