Reviews
The area around doesn't have trusted shopping stores, so you need to go to Novamall.
It's not far from the Old City. We took public bus #1, which cost 30 lire, from Armas to the Old City.
I recommend this hotel.
Genel olarak fena değil yemek yenilen yer aşırı sıcak havuz etrafı çok şezlongla dolu olduğundan dip dibe ve havuza çok yakınsınız denize girmek için biraz yürümeniz lazım yemekler malzeme konusunda hiç sıkıntı yok ama lezzet konusunda bir tık eksik var tatlılar hep aynı çıkıyor meyve sebze bol miktarda mevcuttu konum ve otel düzeni güzel sayılabilir genele vurursak 5 üzerinden 4 yada 4.5 olabilir
