Mixed Experience. Some Issues Noted

inadequate soundproofing uncomfortable sofa bed
I found the soundproofing in my room to be inadequate. Noise from the ventilation shaft persisted throughout the night. This made it difficult to sleep well. the extra bed was just a converted sofa bed with an old blanket used as a topper. It was not the comfortable setup I expected. I was disappointed.

The location proved excellent. It was very near key attractions like Topkapi. The Blue Mosque and many restaurants were also close. Staff were on the spot and remembered guest preferences.
The bed WAS very uncomfortable. It creaked loudly. Restful sleep was not possible because of it. A room change was requested, but it was not possible.
