Reviews
The argument went on for 15 minutes and I finally paid 150 TL so I could get out of there on time. I was almost late for returning my car - which would incur a €80 penalties.
Sort out your own duties first rather than having customers pay.
Compared to its price, it provides a good quality of service, breakfast, and hospitality.
The only thing that worried me a bit was the door of the room. You can lock it from
Inside but I wish there were another lock separate from key to lock from inside for more security. Additionally, I could hear everyone talking outside my room as the sound was easily permitted into the room.
About 15 minute walk to nearest Metro (Ulus), quite steep hills! 25 minute walk to Ankara Castle - very steep hills!
