I
am
surprised
this
hotel
has
such
a
high
rating.
We
were
robbed
here
not
once
but
twice!
I
am
an
American
and
I
was
taking
a
road
trip
across
Europe
into
Asia.
On
our
first
night
there,
our
SUV,
which
was
parked
right
in
front
of
the
hotel!,
had
the
window
broken
by
thieves
(Istanbul
has
no
shortage
of
thieves
and
con
artists;
majority
of
cab
drivers
there
are
con
artists
who
will
loot
you
with
special
tourist
fares
and
sleight
of
hand).
The
car
robbery
attempt
was
in
full
view
of
hotel
staff
and
was
even
caught
on
their
camera.
Luckily,
the
car
alarm
went
off
and
the
thieves
got
in
their
car
and
sped
away.
The
happened
around
3
in
the
morning
but
hotel
staff
didnt
notify
us
until
6
am.
They
did
very
little
to
accommodate
us
during
this
ordeal.
One
staff
member
even
said
this
kind
of
robbery
attempt
happened
once
or
twice
before
at
their
hotel.
The
manager
would
not
compensate
for
broken
window
repairs,
even
though
it
happened
on
their
property,
but
said
he
would
file
a
claim
with
his
insurance
first,
which
would
take
a
week
or
longer.
Only
then
he
could
cover
the
cost
of
the
repair.
We
had
to
leave
Istanbul
the
next
day!
We
were
in
no
place
to
wait
around
for
their
insurance
to
pay.
We
left
in
anger.
They
refused
to
pay
the
200
Turkish
lira.
If
something
this
traumatizing
happens
in
US
businesses,
the
business
does
their
best
to
accommodate
the
customer.
But
not
at
this
hotel!
Park
at
your
own
risk!
Even
if
it’s
right
outside
the
entrance
door.
Do
not
drive
a
nice
car
or
leave
your
luggage
in
back
seat.
