My stay at Four Sides Taksim Lion Hotel wasn't what I hoped for. The location is fantastic, being so close to Taksim Square, which made exploring the city really easy. However, the condition of the rooms left a lot to be desired. They were quite small, and there were cleanliness issues, which overshadowed the positives. Some staff were friendly and helpful, but others seemed indifferent to my concerns. Overall, it's a mixed bag 🏨.
