Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: Murat was my host and honestly, honestly, I say this with no strings attached, this was the best place. Top-tier location, top-tier facilities, such a sweet host, and so central to the metro, and buses! Go for it!
Negative: The entrance is just a tad bit hidden? Perhaps a sign that says, "the best stay in IST" :)
Summary: The best property in Istanbul for Solo/ Couple travellers!

Positive: This is my 2nd experience staying at Murat's, a very helpful and polite host who is always available to help you. He helped me book train tickets to Eskisehir and even kept my luggage at his place. A central location close to all commodities and public transport (05 min from the T5 tramway line, 15 mins from Eminounou sq. by Tramway) and 2 stops from the M2 metro line to Taksim. The rooms are very clean and authentic, in a unique neighborhood close to Balat and Fatih. I won't hesitate to come back on my next trip to istanbul.
Negative: The property needs some renovation work

Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: The location of Fener Sweet is ideal for exploring Balat (the old Jewish quarter) and Fener (the old Greek quarter), which are crowded and colourful. However, it's also within three tram stops of Sultanahmet. Murat at Fener Sweet is a wonderful host and could not have been more helpful and friendly. He even walked us to the local restaurants and ferry stop as the narrow, winding streets are confusing at first. The Fener Sweet rooms are tiny and crowded too, but charming and well-equipped. Definitely high on the list of quirky, fun places to stay.
Negative: The hotel is small and in a very old building, so some constraints on mobility could be a problem. Noise from other guests was a momentary problem too, until they left!
Summary: Quirky and delightful place to stay, with a truly exceptional host.

Positive: Murat and Chi Chi are the kindest, most caring hosts. I had a fall at the airport on arrival in Istanbul and they went out of their way to ensure my comfort. The old quarter of Istanbul is very quaint with all its colourful housing. Lots of tourists came there everyday to take their Instagram photos; but we stayed there!
Negative: Nothing that the hosts nor hotel could change but personally I found the steep hills and cobbled streets difficult.
Summary: Colourful, Charming and Ethnic

Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: The location is in the heart of Balat, a few minutes walk to restaurants, supermarket, tram and buses. It's in a quiet neighborhood, and you sure have a quiet sleep. Room is small but you have everything you need, the bathroom is very comfortable and relatively big to the room, both hot water and water pressure are good. The place is clean, bed is very comfortable like what you have at home AC is sufficiently cool and quiet. The atmosphere reminds me of the time when I stayed at a host family. Very cozy. Host are a couple (Turkish and Taiwanese), very easy to start a conversation, very nice people indeed. We arrived early and the host prepared the room as quickly as possible so we could actually checked in ahead of the scheduled time. For the price, the location and comfort level exceeded our expectations. Istanbul turned pretty expensive in terms of restaurants, exhibition entry fee and hotel, and if you just need a safe, comfortable, clean and good location, this is really the best place to stay. I wished we knew it earlier as we stayed in Karakoy paying 3x more. The costs add up fast.
Negative: Nothing Just one small suggestion, if there is a small sign out of the place saying Fener Sweet, it would be tremendous help for someone to find trhe hotel because the front door looks just like any residential building with the door shut. I think a tiny wooden sign would help first-timer.
Summary: Great location, cozy and clean room

Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: Murat was a very kind and excellent host . He gave me great advice and helped with local navigation and getting a Istanbulkart. The room was very clean and comfortable. Lots of restaurants nearby both up and downhill . Safe neighborhood not too touristic. Very quiet at night .
Negative: The neighborhood is very steep and hilly and hard for older traveller's to manage especially in heavy rain, slip hazards. There was no acess to other upper floors or terrace as stated in older reviews online
Summary: Sweet little homestay in Balat
