If it's location at a reasonable price you are seeking, then the hotel, situated in te shadow of the Blue Mosque, scores well. The standard double room is small with insufficient wardrobe space and a miniscule bathroom. A larger room will up the bill by TL120/night.
All historic locations, the Grand Bazaar and the ferry terminal are within easy walking distance.
