Meddusa Hotel is a small but charming hotel in a nice area in downtown Istanbul, with attractions such as Haghia Sophia and the Blue Mosque within a five minutes walk. The employees are very welcoming, and despite certain language challenges, truly tries to make the stay as pleasant as possible. The rooms (we stayed there twice, and tested three different rooms) are simple yet comfortable, and completely unaffected by noise. The AC was pretty good, but the wifi access rather poor. The breakfast was good yet quite simple, but the visitor inevitably becomes distracted by the magnificent view from the restaurant terrace. In conclusion, this hotel offers a good location and is well worth its reasonable price.
