Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Value for money is a slight concern — The Value rating sits at 7.7, lower than the overall score, suggesting some guests find the price a touch high for the room size or facilities offered.
- No on-site parking — The hotel does not list parking amenities, which could be inconvenient for guests arriving by car in the busy Besiktas area.
- Strict check-in window — Check-in is limited to 14:00–23:59, so guests arriving on late flights or needing early access may have to wait or make arrangements.
- Small room sizes — Some guests mention the rooms are cozy, which could be tight for larger travelers or those with a lot of luggage.
