The location of the hotel is not very safe, be careful. The hotel is clean, the bed is comfortable, there is hot water but the shower is very narrow. The price is reasonable. It is a value-for-money hotel.
It’s the worst place to stay. Even I will not call it hotel.
Staff don’t speak English at all.
Noisy environment from The night club next to the hotel. Stay away.
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
Müşteri memnuniyeti ve güler yüzlü resepsiyon açalışanlarına teşekkür ederim hem temizlik hem güvenlik bakımından gönül rahatlığı ile tercih edebileceğiniz bir yer sessiz sakin ve ulaşım yönünden de gayet güzel bir yer
Arkadaşlar tek kelimeyle iğrenç kesinlikle berbat temizlik hijyen zaten sıfır 3 gece kaldım duş havlusu bile yoktu hep geliyor diye bahane sıcak su gitmeleri odada klima çalışmıyor doğalgazda ısıtmıyor kesinlikle bedava bile olsa gidilmeyecek biryer
The place is very bad ... no towels ... no words to describe it ..... a small room with 4 beds ... 4 people who did not know each other ... I came home from work at 2 in the morning and I had to go to bed without bathing ... without turning on the light so as not to disturb the other customers .... very bad .... I did not go after 2 days ... I gave them the other 4 nights .... the The room was next to the receptionist and at 7 in the morning he had the radio or TV on at full volume .... 😡
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.

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.
Rezil bir hotel karma odalarıvar ve bu ibare internette bellideğil üstüne yardımcı olmadılar giriş yapmadan başka otele gittim üstelik ücret iadesi yapmadılar gidip rezil olmayın

War günstig Zimmer ziemlich klein für Familien nicht geeignet
Das zimmer befand sich im keller hatte nichts mit einer suit zu tun. Das zimmer hat keine ähnlichkeit mit den bildern. Reinigungs kraft kommt auch nicht jeden tag. Die beschreibung mit trockner und waschmaschine in der ausstattung stimmt auch nicht. Im hauptgebäude haben die welche zur eigennutzung wir durften es nach absprache verwenden.
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.

Kein Aufzug.
Personal spricht schlecht oder kein Englisch.
Oft kein Ansprechpartner zur Hand.
Gefallen hat mir die Location
Bei Ankunft war das Zimmer sauber. Die Einrichtung ist wirklich ausreichend und in gutem Zustand. Allerdings war die Rezeption bei Ankunft nicht besetzt. Ich musste telefonisch Kontakt aufnehmen. Das Zimmer wurde nicht von alleine jeden Tag sauber gemacht, ich musste die Damen ansprechen und darum bitten. Ich habe 5 Tage dort übernachtet und die Handtücher wurden nur einmal ausgewechselt. Nach telefonische Bitte wurden mir am letzten Tag auch nicht die Handtücher erneuert. Die Lage war zwar wirklich zentral, allerdings ist die Straße sehr sehr runtergekommen und abends laut. Aber für den Preis war es in Ordnung.
Odaya ilk girdiğimizde cok havasiz farklı bir koku vardı.Bir süre cami açık birakmak zorunda kaldık.Çarşaf kirliydi sanki hiç değiştirilmemiş gibiydi son derece rahatsiz ediciydi.Oda Çift kisilik olmasina ragmen bir adet oda terliği vardi ayrica mini bar yoktu ve içecek(su) almaya dışarı çıkmak zorunda kaldık.Konumu merkezi fakat diğer yönleriyle maalesef kötü bir deneyim yaşattı.
Otel taksim bölgesine göre oldukça sessizdi, yatak ve çarşaflar temizdi. Ancak duşa kabin üst kısmı çıkmıştı ve hijyen değildi. Duş malzemeleri vardı. Otelin bana göre en büyük eksikliği buzdolabı yoktu ve kahvaltı imkanı sunulmamıştı(bunu otele girerken biliyorduk), genel anlamda güzeldi.
Toen we aankwamen leek het allemaal ok. Tot ze ons naar de kamer brachten. Bracht ons eerst terug naar buiten en dan naar de kelder verdieping. En ze zeiden ja dit is jullie kamer. Een versleten 2 persoonsbed met versleten matras. De geur van stof is zo sterk omdat er overal stof op is. Dan heb je nog 2 slaapbanken apart waar je je hond niet eens op zou laten slapen!! De badkamer was heel klein. Een oud versleten wc en een douche met roest overal. Heb foto’s getrokken als het mogelijk is om ze te plaatsen wil ik ze plaatsen. De airco draait wel maar komt geen koude lucht uit. Is waarschijnlijk al jaren niet bijgevuld. De volgende dag ga ik naar de hotel en zeg ja dit is helemaal iets anders dan op de foto’s. Ze vertellen ja expedia kiest de fotos, dat is niet ons schuld. Ik vroeg of we een andere kamer konden krijgen. Hun antwoord was nee volzet. Na 2 dagen zijn we naar een andere hotel gegaan in de buurt. Terwijl we babu hotel voor 7 dagen hebben betaald. We hadddn nog paar lokkum gekocht van de winkels daar en die waren afgesloten en vacuüm getrokken. Deze hadden we nog in de koelkast gelaten in babu hotel. Laatste dag toen we onze spullen waren gaan halen, er was ene open gemaakt!!
En het is een marginale buurt van taksim met heel veel travestieten. Tot 8u ochtend hoor je het muziek. Is allemaal heel dicht bij.
Het was een goedkoop hotel en we hadden geen luxe verwacht. Maar de kamer die we hebben gekregen, daar zou ik zelf een hond niet laten slapen.Voor ons NOOIT MEER

Hôtel bien situé mais ça s'arrête là. Personnel... No comment
A l'arrivė on nous ont donnė une chambre au sous sol. J'ai demandė de nous transfėrė car j'ai ce n'etait pas ce que j'ai reservė. Il falait rajoutė de l'argent. La nouvel chambre etait mieux mais le coffre fort ne fonctionait pas les lampadaires non plus. Le climatseure fesait un bruit affreux la fenėttre ne se fermait pas, et le vacarme de l'extėrieure. Le quartier dangereux et mal frėquentė. Hotel a ėvitė.
