We really enjoyed.
Hello everybody. We were greeted warmly. The receptionist at Hacibe speaks a good level of English and, of course, Turkish; she checked us in very quickly; the other employee, unfortunately did not remember the name, can speak Russian. The woman from the dining room where we had breakfast also knows Russian very well. Well, you can always use an online translator.
The cost of living for this quality is very reasonable.
The hotel itself is tiny, but quite charming. The room is small: 2 single beds - snow-white bed linen, safe, refrigerator, Android TV, black out curtains, WI-FI works properly; The bathroom, for my height of 185 cm, is a little cramped, but for me this is not a problem, because it itself is clean and there are enough towels and shower accessories, and there is also a hairdryer. The price includes a small breakfast, which is served from 8:00 local time - just enough to have a snack before lunch.
A nuance is that the Taksim Mosque is within walking distance, so you can hear the call to prayer five times a day. I sleep soundly and it didn’t bother me.
There is a Migros jet grocery store on the next street, and Şok is also nearby. There are several currency exchange offices near the hotel. Istiklal Street, with the famous red tram, a wide variety of shops, cafes and restaurants, is also within walking distance.
This time I traveled to Istanbul with my mother; she is of an elegant age and can handle stress well, but still the landscape in Istanbul is hilly and not very familiar to us, so the hotel was chosen based on criteria, including maximum transport accessibility.
We got from Istanbul New Airport by Havaist bus - the travel time was approximately 40-50 minutes. From the stop to the hotel it takes about 5-10 minutes at a quiet pace. There is a metro station of the same name on Taksim Square, with its help you can easily get to many attractions - from the hotel to the metro it takes a maximum of 5 minutes at a calm pace.
We wish the hotel success, prosperity and only satisfied guests. Greetings from Yekaterinburg, Russia.
