wonderful location and excellent staff

short walk special breakfast
the location worked perfectly. it was a short walk to ayia sofia, topkapi palace, and the blue mosque. the staff were lovely and very helpful. they helped us book taxis and find places to eat. i appreciated them assisting when i lost my room key. the staff made a special breakfast for my early flight.
i noticed an issue with the bathroom. it had a bad smell, and i could not stand it. i had to leave the window open because of the smell despite the cold weather. rooms are apparently like that, but hopefully, they can fix it soon.
