布里克帕拉斯酒店(Brickpalas)

So we booked Brickpalas for 2 nights during our last two days in Istanbul as we wanted to stay around Taksim area. The area is decent and about a 10 min walk to Taksim square. Pros: 1. The studio room is decently sized 2. Equipped with a kitchen for basic cooking and utensils 3. Location is good 4. Owner was helpful when I could finally reach him after a day, and booked us a cab for airport with a decent and reasonable driver and helped on missing stuff Cons: 1. Worst experience ever to get inside the apartment. No instructions provided by the owner and no way to contact them as well. It took us over an hour to get inside the apartment as we wer trying to reach them. No one answered the building door. 2. Staff is never available and did not provide any instruction except for handing over the keys. 3. No soaps, dish washing soap, and basic amenities were not sufficiently stocked 4. No balcony, can barely step out 5. Only 2 glasses and wine glasses in the room, which is too less. Staff never responded to the door bell and not available in the building 6. Many Lights weren’t working in the room making it quite dim
