諾瓦飯店(Nova Hotel)

我們到達得很晚，迎接我們的是一個不太友善的接待台。浴室很臭，而且沒有 Wi-Fi 連接，儘管他們來「修復」它。早餐對於房間的價格來說是不合格的。很方便，因為它位於公車站，但對於如此昂貴的房間來說，體驗令人失望。

GOOD: I. Location - great. Inside Octogar Station. ii. Large size Room for Istanbul. iii. Very clean. iv. Furnishings satisfactory. BAD: i. Internet -- horrible. Virtually unusable -- intermittent signal, and when working slower than dial up modem from 30 years ago. Seriously! ii. VERY NOISY -- all night noise from outside buses and bus staff talking loud and shouting. iii. Bathroom entry with high step is big safety hazard. iv. Reception/Desk Staff indifferent. v. Breakfast -- very below average. No cereal; no eggs, no yogurt, and no meat of any kind. Only sliced Bread, several cheeses, and jelly. Plus cucumbers, tomatoes and olives, and some soup. No Recommendation. Would probably try another Hotel next time -- e.g. the neighboring Lidar Hotel also in the Octogar Station.

I liked that the hotel was near the bus station that I was using. I really appreciated a super early check-in. I arrived at 8 am and was given tea while I waited about an hour for them to have a room ready for me early. I needed that and was very thankful. The shower water gets really hot and really cold even though the temperature of the water doesn't seem to stay regulated, at least in shower of the the room I had. You do hear a lot of noise from all the cars and vehicles honking and soliciting for taxis I guess, but I guess it should be expected being in a bus station area. Several restaurants nearby was good for me, since I didn't use public transportation or taxis. Train station close by as well.
