Hotel Istanbul Trend

Comfortable bedding, clean bathroom, although room was extremely small. Close to tram and shopping/tourist area.

Although location was good for people looking to buy from wholesalers, area is not so good (boardwalk night markets, bars etc...)

It was clean and the staff were very polite. Outside pool was nice.

The immediate vincinity was not so good. Getting hassled by restaurant owners right outside the front door of the hotel was annoying.

The hotel was in a good area, very easy to walk to most tourist places.

The breakfast was terrible, by far the worst I have ever had at any hotel, let alone a 4 star hotel. The staff were very unhelpful and could not speak proper English. The room was the size of a shoe box so we had to step over our luggage. The aircon wa controlled by the reception so if it was on you became too cold and if it was off you were way to hot. The "gym" was two tread mills and a bike which you had to you with a staff members supervision. The pool on the top level was half a meter deep and always warm so it wasn't nice to go into after a hot day in Istanbul.
