Guest Reviews
- Zhour (10/5): Excellent hotel, friendly staff and service. Everything was very clean. - Instalaciones excelentes y personal muy amable y servicial
A dos pasos de plaza Taksim
Tranquilidad absoluta
Seguro que volveré pronto
Muchas gracias
- manaila (9/5): - Locația foarte bine amplasata la 3 minute de piață,magazin cu diverse lângă cazare.
A fost curat și confortabil.
Am fost cazați la ultimul etaj și erau ceva urme de infiltrații care probabil vor fi reparate.
Că raport calitate/preț/amplasare foarte ok.
Recomand. Erau urme de infiltrații pe tavan și câteodată mirosea canalizarea in baie.
- özgür (9/5): Empfehlenswert - Sauber Zimmer war schon mittags fertig Gibt es Nix , war aber nur nachts zum schlafen dort
- Mahammad (10/5): Otelin konumu ve rahatlığı çok iyiydi. Çalışanlar kibardı. Kesinlikle fiyat performans oteli! - Herşey çok iyidi.
- Parish (5/5): -
- Mohammed said (9/5): -
- Ali (9/5): Highly recommend this property. for the elderly/disabled ones, lift starts from first floor - The property is very well-located, at just a few minutes of walk from taksim. The reception guy Abdul Qadir was exceptional with his communications and services. Room service was very good but could have been better. Shower drainage was clogged but Abdul Qadir got that fixed in time. Single bed could've been better as well.
- ABDULRAHMAN (7/5): بخصوص الغرف جيد بخصوص موقع منحدر متعب - الغرف نظيفة ومريحة الموظفون ودودون
قريب من ساحة تقسيم مكان الفندق موجود في منحدر قوي يتطلب لياقةً
للذهاب والعودة للفندق
صالة الاستقبال فندق صغيرة جدا وغير مريحة للحركة

- Lea Christin (8/5): - Very good value for money. Nice view over the city. Very friendly and helpful staff.
- Karina (10/5): -
- Begmuhammet (6/5): - Kalite 👍
- Wael (9/5): جميلة جدًا - موقع نظافة تعامل جودة المدفأ لم يكن دافئ كثيرًا
- Sami (10/5): magnifique - j'ai tout aimé
- Мария (10/5): Очень комфортные апартаменты. Ребята приветливые, заселили раньше положенного времени), т.к. наш прилет был ранним). Пом - Чисто, уютно, удобное местоположение. Рядом метро, аптека, алкомаркет. Знаменитая улица Истикляль. Приветливый персонал. Все прошло супер
- Oussama (10/5): - Polite and professional staff. Great location, clean & cozy rooms.
- Leon (10/5): Great place to stay. Look no further! - The kindness of the receptionist, the great location of the hotel, wonderful facilities with a really good view. The best value you would get. Nothing.
- Igor (8/5): Good, convenient place for short stay in downtown. - Very friendly host and personal Missing detail instructions how to walk to the place. GPS coordinates and address was not enough to find the place in the very crowded area, unless you use a taxi.
- Fazliu (10/5): The amazing location and perfect condition of the room made my Istanbul trip amazing. - The location is just perfect. It is very close to the Taksim Square and Istikal Street (3-4 minute walk), but it is also far enough not to be too noisy during the night. Just the perfect location in my opinion, because you also probably wouldn't want to be in the center of Taksim Square or Istikal Street considering how noisy they are. You are also close to the metro, which is one station away from the tram T1, and also you are also close to the buses.
The hosts are just amazing. Whenever you request, they give you free water. I know that this is a small gesture, but it really is amazing. There honestly is nothing that I would consider that I didn't like. The hosts were friendly, helpful, and responsive. They were always available. There were many 24/7 markets nearby.
- Abdelrahman (10/5): -
- Abdullayeva (10/5): - Believe me, words fail me. I don't remember ever staying in such a beautiful hotel before. I don't quite remember the name of the boy working at the reception, but I think his name was Kadir. He's truly an incredible young man. I was so surprised by him that I don't even know what to say. He's truly an extraordinary person☺️ Don't let it bother you that some people are making such negative comments unfairly, Kadir. I believe in you. You will go very far. I hope we can meet again. Tace care...
- İrina (10/5): - I absolutely loved this property 🥰. I think this is probably the best hotel in the Taksim area considering the conditions and facilities. Especially the receptionist, Kadir, with his great work and service, he does the work of 2-3 people all by himself. He's truly an amazing person... Nothing was bad. If I ever have the chance to come again, I will definitely stay at this hotel...
- Matrix (10/5): - The hotel's location was truly excellent; it was very close to popular tourist areas (e.g., Taksim Square, Istiklal Street). Also, the receptionist, Kadir, was a very helpful and attentive employee; he assisted us with all our questions and problems. I thank him very much. He is truly a wonderful person☺️ Some people who have stayed at this hotel before are spreading a lot of lies and slander about Kadir and his hotel. Because what they're talking about are absurd arguments that have never been proven and have no evidence whatsoever. However, I haven't seen any problems or shortcomings with Kadir or his hotel that would warrant such exaggeration.
Ignore them. Kadir, I trust you. You will go very far, I believe you...
- Valero (9/5): Excelente ubicación - La ubicación muy buena, estaba limpio y el personal muy amigable. La regadera estaba un poco baja.

Bon rapport qualité prix
Bonne literie Rien
- ilker şen (10/5): Muhteşem fiyatlı ama ultra hizmet ve lüks tü teşekkürler kadır - İşletmeci genç kardeşimi kadir çok misafirperver ve ıyı kalpli bir insan. Konaklamanız boyunca sıze her konuda en ıyı şekilde yardımcı olacaktır. Bundan emınım. Otelın konumu harikaydı taksım meydanı sadece 100 metre uzaklıkta yenı ve çok lüks yapılmıştı 4 yıldızlı hotelle arasındaki tek fark 4 yıldızlı hotele 150 euro verme yerıne 50 euro ya daha güzel hizmet aldım. Odalarım temizliği, interneti, gerçekten harikaydı. Tatilimiz bu güzel otel ve kadir bey sayesinde çok güzel geçti gerçekten sonuna kadar bu yorumu hak ettiniz. Bu otelde eksık bulan misafirlerin bence karakter eksikliği var. Kötü yorumlara ınanmayın gerçekten yalan.
- Hasımova (10/5): It was a new, clean, excellent hotel. - The hotel was just a 50-meter walk from Taksim Square, and our room was truly stylish and luxurious. I especially want to mention the manager, Kadir Bey. He was incredibly helpful, kind-hearted, and cheerful. He even helped wash our clothes free of charge. He told us about all the great locations and offered us an Istanbul card for use separately. If you're looking for excellent value for your money, look no further than this wonderful hotel, which is already newly built.
- Gerasimov (1/5): -
- Kartal (10/5): Kadir Bey and his hotel are really great - I'd like to thank the manager, Kadir Bey, so much. He's a very friendly and helpful person, and he was incredibly helpful throughout our stay. The hotel was very flexible, and it was brand new. Nothing was missing. It was also perfectly designed, ultra-luxurious. The location is perfect, and they also have their own supermarket below the hotel. It's open 24/7, and everything was perfect. We got our money's worth. Thank you so much for all your service.
- Abdullahi (10/5): Great location, great hotel, great and very handsome manager, thank you to Mr. Kadır. - First of all, I'd like to emphasize this: The hotel is truly 5-star, newly built, and its location is only 100 meters from Taksim Square. There's a market right below the hotel, which is open 24 hours a day. The manager, Mr. Kadir, was incredibly hospitable and helpful in every way. He's always at the hotel and ready to help with anything. We truly got our money's worth. From now on, I won't have to look for another hotel when I come to Istanbul. I've never seen anything better than this one, at this price. I have seen a few reviews before and I can clearly say that those who gave bad reviews to this hotel are either people who have very high expectations for the money they paid or they are ungrateful people. I really do not like those who did this injustice to this hotel.
- Katerya (10/5): a new facility with an excellent location - It's a truly wonderful property. It was newly built. It was in a very central location and very luxuriously furnished. I got my money's worth.
- Shaheer (1/5): -
- Tatiana (9/5): - Удобное расположение, шаговая доступность до общественного транспорта, достопримечательностей и различных кафе. Отзывчивый персонал, Кадир помогал по всем вопросам и в день дождя предложил зонты бесплатно.

- Tsikos (8/5): -
- Frank (5/5): Bedingt empfehlenswert - Das Zimmer war gut ausgestattet, sauber, sehr heißes Wasser, bequeme Betten, Steckdosen, großer Bad-Spiegel. Wasserkocher, Kaffee, Zucker, kleiner Kühlschrank. Ich hatte ein großes Zimmer für max. 3 Personen, (Familienzimmer) zu einem Preis reserviert, für 14 Tage! Oktober 2025. Auf meiner Buchungsbestätigung ist auch das Bild des Familienzimmers abgebildet. Darunter steht dann Deluxe Zimmer mit Kingsize-Bett.
Bei Ankunft in der Unterkunft, wurde mir erklärt, dass das große Zimmer großzügigerweise für eine Nacht benutzt werden kann, Spezialangebot des Hauses! Am nächsten Tag mussten wir in ein kleineres Zimmer, zum Preis des großen Zimmers. Warum? Eine Familie kommt in das große Zimmer! Doppelbelegung?
Bezahlung machen wir am nächsten Tag, kein Problem.
Es gab dann doch ein großes Problem!
In der Buchungsbeschreibung wird aufgeführt dass Kreditkarten, die gängigen, zur Bezahlung akzeptiert werden! Ich konnte dies nicht mit meiner Karte bezahlen, da das Computersystem nicht dafür ausgelegt ist, Aussage der Rezeptionsperson. Wie kann ich bezahlen? Ich habe nicht Bargeld in dieser Höhe dabei, dann sollte ich über mein Bankkonto in Deutschland den Betrag auf ein Privatkonto dieser Person einzahlen. Das funktioniert nicht, da Türkei nicht im Sepa-Verband ist.
Sollte ich zur Deutschen Botschaft gehen?
Am nächsten Tag kam der Vorschlag, dass er ein Zahlungsgerät von einem Freund holt, dann könnte ich mit Karte bezahlen. Dies war dann aber nur in 5 Transaktionen (Gebühren für mich) möglich, da pro Transaktion nur ein gewisser Betrag möglich war.
Dies war nicht die einzige Unannehmlichkeit vor Ort.
Booking com hatte ich auch angeschrieben, aber ich bekam keine Hilfe, Antwort!
Bezahlungsinformation sollte geändert werden!
Bewertung: Bedingt empfehlenswert!
- Rayan (10/5): كل شي جميل ومن افضل الاماكن اللي استأجرت فيها ومكانها قريب و واضح من شارع التقسيم - كل شي جميل ومن افضل الاماكن اللي استأجرت فيها ومكانها قريب و واضح من شارع التقسيم
- Анжелика (8/5): - Останавливались в данном отеле на 3 ночи и слава богу , что не больше!
1. Заселение с 14 часов , но мы приехали на 12 часов позже и номер был не готов! Это шок! На улице 2 часа ночи , пришли на ресепшене никого , ждали когда придет сотрудник . После оформления он пошел подготавливать наш номер и мы почти час ждали заселение. Вопрос к отелю , а разве номер не должен быть готов к 14:00? Почему люди должны в ночи ждать когда подготовят номер? Ужас !
2. Номер - чистый просторный с большим балконом. Мебель в хорошем состоянии. Чай , кофе, чайник и холодильник в номере есть. Огромный минус это раковина 🙈10*15 сантиметров , невозможно нормально умыться и руки помыть . Это самый огромный минус номера .
3. Расположение - рядом площадь Таксим и автобусная остановка Havaist (очень удобно кто добирается с аэропорта и до аэропорта на автобусе). Район не самый безопасный. На дороге по вечерам стоят трансвеститы. Девушкам одним лучше там не гулять по вечерам, не очень безопасно .
Итог : если нужен отель на пару ночей , то этот подойдет , но если на длительный отпуск , то точно не рекомендую ! На ресепшене никогда нет сотрудника! Постоянно его нужно было ждать когда он придет иногда не дожидались и уходили . Скорее всего парень работает один и постоянно при любой возможности уходит поспать , поэтому он отсутствует на рабочем месте , а потом выходит сонный 😴 а может и вообще не выйти.
- Cristian (8/5): Nice and clean accommodation in Istanbul for couple of days - The accommodation was exactly as it is in the description on the website, i.e. it respects the conditions and facilities advertised there - so it is not at all false advertising.
I liked that it is well located, that it is situated in a safe area, that there are shops, restaurants, cafes within 2-3 minutes walking distance.
The metro is about 8 minutes walk away.
The rooms we stayed in were big enough, clean, airy and bright. Towels were changed daily and the rooms were cleaned daily. Equipped with A/C that really worked, hot water kettle for tea, refrigerator. Bathroom functional, clean and large.
The host family that runs the hotel is extremely nice, attentive to the needs of the tourists, jumping if you need anything. They were friendly and nice and we thank them for all their support.
I highly recommend!
- Tohfe (7/5): -
- Айкерим (10/5): Really liked the hotel. Highly recommend! Staff was very helpful! -
- ALBERTO (8/5): - Una gran suerte que tuviera calentador para agua y que dejaran café y te para poder tomar algo a diario antes de salir del hotel.
- Beatrice (9/5): - Le camere molto carine e pulite. La posizione molto comoda vicino a Piazza Taksim da cui si possono prendere diversi mezzi e pieno di locali nei dintorni per cenare. Il ragazzo alla reception molto gentile e disponibile.
- Evgenii (9/5): -
- Ushakov (9/5): - Приветливый парень на ресепшене, довольно просторный номер. Не полностью соответствует описанию.
- Sumera (9/5): Stay at Alkan towers - The room was cozy and Qadir was quite nice guy. He always respond quickly and provide what we ask for. The location is very near by Taksim square
- zelenitsas (3/5): - Η τοποθεσία είναι η ιδανική. Βρίσκεται δίπλα στην πλατεία Ταξιμ. Ο οικοδεσπότης ευγενέστατος. Κλείσαμε δωμάτιο delux και στις φωτογραφίες φαινόταν πολύ μεγάλο. Οταν μπήκαμε όμως αντικρίσαμε ένα δωματιάκι ίσα που χώραγε το κρεβάτι. Δεν μείναμε ικανοποιημένοι με την καθαριότητα.
- Anna (8/5): -
- mohamed (7/5): - Small room
- Svetlana (10/5): - Останавливались на пять ночей, номер соответствовал действительности, чистая ванная мыльные принадлежности, ежедневно давали воду чай кофе. Недалеко от метро и фуникулёра. Удобная кровать чистая постельное белье .рекомендую
- Elena (10/5): Все хорошо - Очень близкое расположение к площади Taксим ,метро,центру, рядом продуктовые магазинчики,кафе и места общепита .Отель чистый ,видно что после ремонта,номера свежие с кондиционером.Ежедневная уборка смена полотенец и туалетных принадлежностей. В отеле было тихо и спокойно . Шум на улице и звуки мечети неотьемлимая часть традиций и культуры города и не относяться к качеству проживания в отеле и обслуживанию. Огромное спасиба менеджеру КАДЫРУ за внимание и помощь ,отзывчивость. Рекомендую . Удачи.
- Ekaterina (10/5): Большое спасибо за теплый прием. Обязательно вернемся снова! - Нам понравилось все. Отличное расположение отеля. Шикарный номер с балконом и невероятным видом из окна! Номер просторный, есть небольшая кухня (чай/кофе можно сделать). Душевая большая-это очень удобно! На балконе столик и 2 стула, вечером можно прекрасно посидеть включив подсветку! И отдельное спасибо администратору-он очень внимательный, все подсказал, на любые вопросы отвечает. И еще в отеле есть услуга такси аэропорт-отель!
- Mattia (10/5): - Amazing rooms in a great position to visit Istanbul and a super nice and helpful staff!
- Kseniia (10/5): Уже не первый раз вернулись в этот отель, нравится соотношение цена-качество и душевное отношение сотрудников отеля. Обя - Наш любимый отель в Стамбуле, очень отзывчивый и дружелюбный персонал, всегда помогут и подскажут по всем вопросам. В номере хороший ремонт и прекрасная терраса с видом на город, локация удобная - рядом с метро Таксим и улицей Истикляль.
- Sferrazza (6/5): Pratique au niveau de l’emplacement, propreté correcte, à revoir au niveau de la Clim/ du wifi ainsi que la réactivi - Emplacement Clim ne fonctionnait pas
Wifi non plus
Très bruyant
- Lioulios (4/5): - The hotel was quite good and the staff polite, however they were completely unprofessional with their booking management I had a booking for three nights in a one-bed room, however the morning before I arrived I was sent an email letting me know for a change in my reservation for one night less, which I was totally unaware of. Upon arrival, the staff there knew nothing and I was informed that the hotel was fully booked and I couldn't stay as planned. They only offered me a chance to stay at 2:30 a.m. the night before I left, as another guest had an early check-out.
- Maria (9/5): Great value for those money - It's an excellent place for this price (approx 100$ for 2 nights in the first week of september). We've stayed here twice during our long stopovers in Istanbul.
Convenient location, relatively quiet, great view from family room terrace, everything looks relatively new and very clean, stuff is very helpful. They helped us arrange transfer for a reasonable price (there was a bit of missunderstanding about airports but it was resolved very fast). Elevator is on the second floor, but staff can help you with bags. Overall it was good experience compared to our previous stays in the city. Although we really liked this hotel there are few minor things to be improved. For example the hotel was fully booked and we didn't get towels at first. Also in some rooms beds are quite narrow and there is just one very thin blanket.
If there is no one in the reception - just ask in the shop around the corner.
- Kawtar (10/5): - I’m very happy with the service. Everything is conveniently close to the hotel, and the security made me feel safe even when I returned late. The environment is very secure, and I highly recommend trying the restaurant in front of the hotel.”
- Mario Osorio (10/5): - A relação qualidade / preço está muito bem
Está próximo da paragem dos autocarros Havabus que ligam o aeroporto ( Shabina) a Istambul, andando a pé cerca de 8 min.
Está próximo do metro.
Aconselhado, dentro de um padrão de alojamento simples,.
Não contar com luxos, pois não é isso que está a pagar, mas com limpeza, ar condicionado eficiente, a preço muito conveniente.

- Nabeel (10/5): I had a wonderful stay at this motel. The rooms and bathrooms were exceptionally clean, which made the experience very c - Very clean rooms and bathrooms, excellent location near Taksim Square. Special thanks to Mr. Abdulqader for his kindness and great help to the guests. Highly recommended!
- Valentina (8/5): Consiglio, ambiente pulito, ottima accoglienza e camere pulite e moderne. Ottima esperienza! - Ospitalità proprietario. Camere moderne e pulire. Doccia enorme
- Miklos (10/5): -
- Gergely (9/5): Exceptional experience – highly recommended! - We stayed at Alkan Premium Hotel for 8 nights with our family (6 people total), and we were absolutely delighted with everything. The service and staff were beyond excellent – truly respectful, kind, and honest people, which is rare to find nowadays.
The hotel met all our needs and expectations. Although it was very hot outside during our stay, the air conditioning worked perfectly and was quiet enough to sleep comfortably. The bathroom was especially beautiful, with elegant marble surfaces and easily adjustable hot water.
The building is narrow and tall, typical for the area, but the elevator makes reaching the upper floors very convenient. Right below the hotel, there’s a well-stocked mini market run by the hotel staff themselves. This was incredibly useful—not only for the great prices and long opening hours, but also because you can find almost anything there.
Within just 50 steps from the entrance, you’ll find 3–4 restaurants, a laundry service, a pharmacy, and only about 100 meters away up the street by the shore, there’s a lovely place to enjoy breakfast. The hotel is also very close to Taksim Square, so public transportation is super convenient.
In short: we were extremely satisfied and highly recommend this hotel.
Selamün Aleyküm! The bed could have been slightly larger, perhaps. While the hotel itself is genuinely quiet and the windows provide good insulation, it's worth noting that the Taksim area is not exactly peaceful at night during this season – good to be aware of in advance.
- Bedirhan (9/5): Superb -
- Thinnaphop (10/5): Exceptional -
- Polina (10/5): i highly recommend the apartaments, super happy that we stayed there :) - cozy apartments with a beautiful design for a comfortable life! stunning view from the window, the room has everything you need, very nice and helpful staff who are ready to help and answer any question. The apartments are a 5-minute walk from the Taksim metro, there is also a funicular nearby to go down to the port of Kabatash. There are many cafes and shops nearby for both breakfast and lunch! i liked everything :)
- Saïd (5/5): The location is good but the hotel is not comfortable - It was proper. They lie about the bed size. It’s mentionned king size while it is a double bed size.
King size is 180cm while the double bed is less than 130cm.
It was very small for a couple and it was not comfortable. We mentioned it to them and they lied to our face to say that we were wrong and it is a king size. Which was not acceptable .
They mention that they have an elevator but it is at the second floor so you need to take the stairs first.
- Mukhamed (9/5): Highly recommend. It's a nice place located just perfectly. - The service quality is quite high. The staff responsiveness is excellent. The rooms are unexpectedly bright and spacious. Small grocery shops all around. All in all, a very nice place to stay. The sink in the bathroom could be bigger, especially as the space allows it. Other than that, everything was great.
- Henrik (10/5): Exceptional - We had a great stay at the hotel. The stuff were really friendly and eager to help us. The location is really amazing, close to the taksim meydani.
- Daryna (10/5): A great hotel for its price! - The hotel is located quite close to Taksim Square and the metro, yet far enough from the noisy streets to ensure a peaceful night’s sleep. There's a small shop right next to the hotel where you can buy water, juice, snacks, fruit, and more. There’s also a restaurant and a pharmacy nearby, which makes the location very convenient.
The staff are incredibly polite and friendly. They're always happy to show you around, explain things, and have a chat. They also speak English quite well, which makes communication easy and allows you to quickly get help with any questions or issues.
One day, the entire area experienced a water outage (not the hotel's fault), but the staff kindly provided us with a large bottle of water as a gesture of goodwill. It was a thoughtful and much-appreciated act.
Even though we didn't always manage to catch the room cleaning in the morning, the staff still replaced our towels, bed linen, toilet paper, and emptied the trash — which we really appreciated.
All in all, it’s a great place to stay and relax. Highly recommended! Room cleaning takes place quite early in the morning — usually between 10:00 and 11:30 am. This wasn’t very convenient for us, as we like to sleep in a bit longer.
- Alexandra (10/5): Exceptional -
- Szabó (10/5): Exceptional Stay in the Heart of Istanbul - We had an amazing stay at this accommodation! The location was perfect—just a short walk to the city center and very close to a metro station, which made getting around the city super easy.
The staff were incredibly kind and helpful throughout our stay. They were always available and made sure we felt comfortable and welcome. The host was especially great—very flexible and gave us excellent tips on what to see and do in Istanbul.
Our room was clean, cozy, and well-maintained—exactly what we needed after a day of sightseeing.
There’s a convenient shop right below the building for snacks and essentials, and a fantastic restaurant just next door that we highly recommend!
Everything about our stay exceeded our expectations. We would definitely stay here again and recommend it to anyone visiting Istanbul.
- Jessica (7/5): Good for price - Clean. Staff friendly and helpful. Great location It can be a little noisy
- Khizar (10/5): Best - It was neat and clean .Everything was good 👍. Staff was also good, and let us check in .Istiklal street was within walking distance.
- Lawrence (10/5): Pleasing closure - Well I decided to book a last minute 2 day layover on the way home to London and saw this place was available. Firstly I was contacted after booking on my number to confirm my arrival and was also allowed early check in cheers for that.
Location was ten minutes walk from the coach from the airport and 5 mins from taskim Square excellent for connections metro and bus.
There are plenty of shops in the area but I advice the 15 min walk to carrefour I was treated very well in there and told of discounts I was missing out on.
As pointed out in the other review it is at the bottom of a hill but that helped with my cardo if you can't get up the hill take it as a sign.
There is a lift available from the first floor and the shower and air con was great after a day walking around looking at the sights I would return and recommend. I had to leave after 2 days I would have stayed longer but that was the most I could do after 3 weeks holiday

- Kacper (10/5): Probably the best apartment in the Taksim Square area! - The apartment was very clean. It had a large, comfortable bed, worktop, fridge, kettle, hangers, lamps and bedside tables. The bathroom was perfect. The shower fully met my expectations. The host was very polite and helpful. The apartment was quiet even at night despite the (perfect but noisy) location.

- Tea (10/5): Exceptional -
- Anastasia (8/5): Very good - You could take the elevator from the first floor. The receptionist helped me but when I left I had to do it by myself.
The hotel is on an uphill, really close to the Taksim Square.
- Andrei (10/5): Good value for money - big space, polite staff The sink in the large bathroom is small and there are no hooks to hang towels on. The hotel is located in a low place, where it is difficult to go down and up with a suitcase.
- Antreas (7/5): Good - Kadir makes the difference. Very friendly. Bed mattress needs to be replaced as it very basic quality. Not comfortable at all.
