Paradise Island Hotel in Gebze

I don‘t get the reviews at all. I stayed for one night and I‘m glad I didn‘t stay longer. If you‘re solo traveling as a woman avoid this place!!!
They gave me a stinky room (smelled like cigarettes) at first. They said all rooms are non smoking but I knew they were lying since both rooms had ashtrays in them.
I got another room after complaining about the smell. The rooms were in an awful condition. Super old and the windows were very dirty.
My neighbors were some students who were very loud until morning time.
Also, the receptionists were not welcoming and not friendly at all. No one helped me with my bags (they were super heavy) and everyone just kept starring even during check-out (also all the workers).
So, I was either just unlucky or they treat everyone differently. Idk.

PS: there‘s no pool as shown in the pictures and it does NOT look like in the pictures at all. Such a scam!

I stay in A LOT of hotels every single year and this one was ONE of the WORST!
