Turkey, Bodrum, Uckuyular Caddesi No:22
● Center: 730 m

Guests often mention the quiet and peaceful tangerine garden where breakfast is served, describing it as a relaxing and pleasant setting. The central location close to the beach (about a 5-minute walk) and shopping areas receives praise for convenience. Staff are frequently described as friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable about the local area, enhancing guests’ experiences.

Several guests report rude or indifferent behavior from the owner and reception, especially regarding booking issues and early arrivals. Rooms are described as small, with outdated furniture and bathrooms that some find cramped or poorly maintained. Complaints about inconsistent pricing and lack of transparency during booking and check-in processes were common. Breakfast is sometimes criticized for limited variety and additional fees not included in the room price. The hotel’s policy of not providing guests with keys and closing at night has caused inconvenience to some travelers.

At the time of booking, I had asked for an airport transfer well before my check in date. He replied “subject to availability” and didn’t even bother to follow up or ask how I’m getting there.
At the time of check-in, I was told it’ll be 12pm even though I got there at 8am. I thought he’d ask the existing guests to check out on time AT THE LEAST, but the guests in my room checked out later than the checkout time and I only got the room at 1pm. It was extremely rude and indifferent behaviour.
A day before my check-out date, I had informed the reception that I’ve made another night’s booking on Agoda and he said he’d talk to the owner and confirm. But they never got back to me so I thought it was understood. Next day in the afternoon, while I was sleeping, I hear a knock 4 times and when I go out, there’s nobody. Imagine this happening when you’re sleeping in the privacy of a hotel room. I was frustrated by this and tried to go back to sleep. Then, the owner, the reception guys and 1 other guy who I’ve no idea who he was ganged up outside my room and told me “you should have INFORMED US that you booked this room. It’s a 3 person room, you need to pack and we I can send you to the other hotel”. I was SUPREMELY confused as to what’s going on. I was like okay, it’s a 3 person room, but I paid in full and booked online (like anybody else would) so what’s the problem? And the hotel they were sending me to was 1/4th of the price I paid for this room.
I told them either refund my money or book a room in the vicinity of the same value. The owner got agitated and handed me the cash saying “here, take your money, and I will pay for your other hotel if you want. It’s my penalty”
All I had in my mind was ellipsis. It was a bizarre experience to say the least and I don’t recommend staying here if you want your space as you should have in a HOTEL. This should be a called a HOMESTAY instead.

I have made a reservation on online Booking.com. When I arrive Hotel the request for the pay more than what was on online and I refuse to pay and then they were not friendly with me They got a terrible hospitality As soon as when I left, they change the price straight away

The hostel needs renovation!
The hostel needs many renovations. Breakfast had the cheapest products, shower head was broken, there were lots of spiders and spider webs in the rooms and hostel, the doors were very old and handles were damaged. Good parts: garden, safety, some of the staff, staff’s being helpful.

We took the bus from Denizli and arrived at the hotel in the early morning. We had no other choice since there was ONLY ONE BUS PER DAY from our last destination to Bodrum. The boss was mad at our early request to leave our luggage there. He was extremely rude. What was worse, after we checked in, we were given a tiny room with four single beds with NO SPACE FOR WALKING BETWEEN, which was apparently much smaller than the one I booked online. During our two-night stay there, the boss stayed impolite and cold at us. This was the WORST hotel I have ever stayed at. Not recommended at all.

A nice cosy authentic hotel. It’s affordable. Reminds you of the old times. Even though breakfast was not included in, they treated us to breakfast. It’s very close to the sea.
08.06.2025 Lisa
The room was extremely basic and dull. Bathroon no better. There was no nearby pool for the use of guests. There was no private beach! Or free use of beach cabanas, umbrellas or loungers .. they were part of the local restaurants. Breakfast is advertised at 40 TRY but on asking was 500 TRY oer person. Overall the facilities noted are incorrect and need looking at. Unfortunately not a good experience.

Great location (3 minute walk from waterfront) and the staff were lovely and took good care of us! We enjoyed the breakfasts in the courtyard which is a very nice setting.
Share your experiences, help others make the right choice!
Think about what you would like to know if you were looking for a review about a place to relax. Please describe in detail what you liked and what you didn't. What would you advise to other guests and to the hotel owner. The more fully you tell about the hotel, the easier it will be for other people to make a choice and they will be very grateful to you!
