PORT SUITES KARAKÖY

Not impressed. I booked the room shown on Expedia 5 months prior to my stay. The day before, after I contacted the establishment, I was told that the only room available was on the 6th floor, no elevator. I was told I could cancel with no penalty. That was the day before I arrived! They gave the room to someone else who booked for a longer period of time, even though I’m sure I booked first. I think they actually forgot about my booking and found someone’s room for me. The room was fairly large but it reeked of cigarette smoke, wasn’t too clean, and had no balcony. The person I dealt with was very nice and helpful. He carried my luggage up the 6 flights of stairs.

Comfortable and close to everything.

Excellent stay Great location Enes. (The host) was of great help we stayed in the first floor after the effort done by Enes I would recommend it for its space, location, and service But the place needs maintenance and to be cleaned

Very nice host, easy check in, apartment is nice.

Wonderful place, would book again! This room was on the 4th floor without elevator. There was no info about that in the description, but I had asked the owner before booking - so no surprise for us. The owner was available all the time, and he is very polite and helpful. We enjoyed the balcony, which gave us a nice view of the bustling street, and lovely morning sun. The design of the place was matching the photos that we saw online. A huge TV and music speakers were also available. We were at walking distance from many tourist attractions and public transport. Especially Karaköy pier is close, and the ferries there bring you to the Asian side (Kadiköy) quickly. The area around the hotel is surrounded by bars, restaurants, shops, supermarkets, and pharmacies. Most of them are heavily concentrated on tourists, so we went out to non-touristic neighborhoods nearby to find authentic Turkish food, local Istanbul life, and much better prices.
