5.6/10

My stay at City Center Istanbul Taksim Hotel was quite disappointing. I was initially drawn in by its advertised 4-star rating, but the reality didn't match up. The location was good, close to Taksim Square, which was a plus, but the cleanliness of the rooms was far from acceptable. The bathroom smelled unpleasant and the overall upkeep felt neglected.
