Stayed there last year while on an Overseas Adventure Travel (Grand Circle) Tour. Small hotel, modern, clean, efficient staff. Great rooftop restaurant/bar. GREAT LOCATION. Sorry, can't comment on price since I was on a tour. Would stay there again if in Istambul.
K.P.S. Yes, it's painted blue

Marko,
I stayed there 2 years ago and liked it a lot. It is wonderfully-located near the Blue Mosque and I had a great view of it from my window. Rooms are average-size, with clean, modern bathrooms. I found the desk staff very warm and helpful. The hotel is pretty modern and comfortable ; there's no arabic/oriental styling in its decor. It's not especially "cool" or "chic" and it definitely has a middle class clientele. It's a well-maintained hotel, with excellent service, breakfast and location. I recommend it highly and would stay there again without hesitation.
