FONTANA VERDE

Very welcoming and kind stuff - they upgraded my room for free, which really made a difference, since I got a way nicer and bigger room. It was decent in terms of combort, with free water and teas provided. Nice design and big bathroom. Also, the location was very good for my purposes: just a 5 minutes walk away from the tube, 2 stations away from the airport - perfect for a long layover between the flights.

A little tired and dusty in general, though quite clean. The water takes good 10 minutes to warm up. One of the curtains was missing (the place has a lot of windows, which is nice, but not when it's dark and you can be clearly seen from the outside)

Just 1-2 stations from the airport (very easy to get there, in metro you can attach your credit card and pass - no complicated tickets purchases), very clean and comfortable, nice staff, a small fridge in the room, pizza and a small food shop nearby, very good for one night stay between the flights.

A loud ventilation in the bathroom (but only when you turn it on).

The location is very good if you want a hotel for long waiting time between flights. You can reach the hotel by the metro (only two stations far from SAW airport), and the metro station is 5 min walking from the hotel. The room are quit big and clean.

The guy on the reciption desck could be more friendly.

The bed was comfortable and the room spacious. The staff were perfectly pleasant though they could have been a bit more forthcoming with details like, for example, how to get to the airport. We know we needed tickets for the metro but they didn’t explain about the Istanbul kart which is fundamental.

The noise from the traffic is too much. The curtains were falling off the hooks so I couldn’t block it out as much as I would have liked. We are a family of 3 but there were forks and cups (sticky) for only 2 people.
