The location is ok - its quite a walk to Taksim square, but it is close to metro stations. The room I got for the good price is extremely small (depressing) but very clean. Staff was very good, one guy actually spoke very good english. Also, I wasn't aware, but I thought I had already paid through expedia - they charged me when I checked out, saying that expedia does not take the money - I didn't like this part of it.
