My stay at this hotel left a very good impression. The room was clean and comfortable, everything was neat and tidy. Cleaning was done efficiently, and I had no complaints about the cleanliness.
The location is convenient, with public transportation, shops, and cafes nearby, making it especially convenient for tourists. After a busy day in the city, the hotel felt quiet and peaceful.
The staff is friendly and attentive, always polite and helpful. Check-in was quick, with no questions or waiting times.
A good value for money hotel. Suitable for both short trips and longer stays. I highly recommend it.
The staff was professional, everything was ok for me on my 4 night at this hôtel.
The staff were kind, the hotel is very clean, the room is comfortable and clean, with a standard European style bed, decoration, etc.
They offer a very good breakfast.
I said it wasn't what I had booked and they said they would cancel it to look for another one 🤬🤬
I said I was going to complain about them, which was unacceptable, they said they couldn't do better.
I said I wanted to speak to the manager and they said he wasn't there, and they could only change it the next day.
Luckily they were as good as their word and I was well settled another day.
The Turks all have the idea that they are smart and swindlers, eyes wide open 😸
