The stay is absolutely Bad! I booked a room online and they gave me an entirely different room, it was dirty and everything broken , no TV and no fridge is working , the sink is broken and the shower door doesn’t shut. All that was ok but then in the middle of the night someone knocked on my door asked to get inside and he likes me I threatened to call the police then he left. I immediately left the place as it is very unsafe and very bad

I stayed here for 5 days and I can tell you this is NOT A FAMILY hotel. The room is super tiny. The pictures I've seen online didn't show how small the place actually was. There was no room for our luggage. The blankets had a large yellow stain on it. We ran out of clean towels and toilet paper after only 2 days and our tiny garbage filled up so fast and I was wondering when they would clean the room. This place DOES NOT HAVE ROOM SERVICE. I would not reccomend this place or ever come back. The street has so many night clubs that blast music until 4 am. I was woken up at 3 am when I heard our neighbor prostitute bargaining her prices with men yelling in the street. My wife was mortified. You can hear people walking up the tiny staircase with their luggage at night when you are trying to sleep. The receptionist who checked us in only spoke Russian and Turkish and got frustrated with us because of the language barrier. The staff is pretty much non existent. Half the time there is no one working to ask questions or to help you book taxis or tours. Absolutely not the service I expected. And when reading the responses of the owner to the negative comments online I was shocked. There is absolutely no remorse or regret to his customers for his shortcomings. He responds in an insulting manner and calls people liars for leaving negative reviews. He has no care for great customer service. AVOID BABU HOUSE and take your money elsewhere.

This place is terrible; does not even worse it at 1cent a night. The area is noisy and dangerous. There is no staff at the location, no room service, no cleaning. The restroom sink was clogged, fridge was out of order, and the ceiling was leaking. And on top of that, the management (if you could get a hold of them) did not do anything to fix any of the issues. Overall, places like Babu hotel should not be advertised on websites like Expedia.

Its House / Hostel rather than hotel.
The hotel near to city center, but noisy area with a lot of pubs.
There is no services unless in the morning, other times will be on call.
not recommended.

Unforgettable stay
My GF and I stayed at this hotel for 5 nights!
The location is perfect: safe and walking distance from many attractions(Istiklal avenue, Taksim Square, Galata Tower...) and live music bars and pubs!
The room was small but clean ,confortable and quiet!
Special thanks to Ozan at the front desk who was extremely friendly and gave us very useful tips and recommendations!
You will definitely see us again soon

Genell itibariyle iyi. ve rahat.
It is so close to İstiklal caddesi/street. So noisy but it was so comfortable and clean.
İstiklal'e yakın. Aşırı gürültülü, gece 5 defa uyandım gürültüden. Kış için sıcak, ferah, rahat. Oda bayağı iyi ama yalıtımlı cam olmadığından gürültülü ve otoparka da yakın.
