We visited Istanbul in May and stayed at the Artefes. The hotel was excellent and in a great location right by the Blue Mosque and most of the main sites.

We walked a lot all over the city and didn't notice creaking wooden floor (beneath our 3rd) and noises from adjacent rooms separated by thin walls in the night/morning.
