I recently stayed at Taksim Mood for one night, and it was quite a mixed experience. While I appreciated the convenient location close to the airport bus stop, the room itself left a lot to be desired. It seemed quite dated, with cleanliness being a major issue, including stained bedsheets and a noisy environment. Overall, I’d rate it around a 5.

Rooms

The Standard Double Room felt outdated, and the bathroom badly needed renovation. The noise level was extremely high, which made it hard to get a good night’s sleep. It's hard to understand why this hotel has such a high rating.

Service

The service was lacking, as I found the reception situation to be confusing and unhelpful. The staff seemed disengaged, and I had to wake the only staff member several times just to get basic assistance.

The location is one of the highlights, as it’s very close to the airport bus station and right in the center of Istanbul, just a short walk down an alley from Istiklal Street.

Breakfast was quite a hassle since it was at another hotel, requiring me to walk in the cold for about 5-10 minutes. The breakfast hours also started quite late, which wasn’t ideal for my schedule.

I had a pretty good time at Taksim Mood, especially considering its location. It’s super close to everything fun, and the staff, especially Hassan, were incredibly helpful. However, the room I stayed in needed some serious TLC—the bathroom was dated, and I did notice some cleanliness issues that kind of put a damper on things.
