Reviews
The garden is a real highlight. It’s full of interesting art pieces and has plenty of cozy spots to sit, relax, and enjoy the beautiful weather. The whole place has a very laid-back, welcoming vibe.
Location-wise, it’s ideal — pretty much in the cultural heart of Famagusta, making it easy to explore the historic sites, cafés, and local life.
Highly recommended for anyone looking for a relaxed and friendly place to stay.
Everything was good.
I was travelling alone so i had the single room. Comfortable bed, AirCon and TV if needed. Good shower. Super clean. fast wifi.
Thanks so much. Trevor
1. Beautiful property (former family home) within the city walls.
2. Location unbeatable. Very well signposted as you enter the old city from the southwest gate.
3. Free tea or coffee served on arrival. Breakfast spread meze-style. (You're not required or expected to finish it!)
4. Price competitive with comparable B&B's in North America. Expensive by local standards but worth every kurus.
Caveats:
1. Most guests are tourists from mainland Turkey. Don't expect staff to speak much of any language that isn't Turkish. You may need your phrasebook or Google Translate. (Website is in Turkish only.)
2. The wifi in rooms works well, but be sure to ask for the password at reception---it wasn't posted in our room.
3. Reception closes at 8pm. If it isn't too late in the evening, one of the phone numbers posted on the door should reach a member of the family who own and operate the guesthouse (who still live nearby), but don't take them for granted!
4. If you're a light sleeper, be prepared for a wake-up call from the rooster next door and/or heated discussions within the Feline Cypriot community.
Very nice family run business. Enjoyed our stay there. BETUL is lovely lady.
