    Lack of elevator makes lugging heavy bags cumbersome!!! Old and outdated furnishings give a sense of neglect!!! Noise from nearby calls to prayer disrupts peace during early mornings!!! Limited electrical sockets create inconvenience during device charging!!!

    kind staff
    warm hospitality
    outdated furnishings
    lack of elevator

    Here’s the good and the not-so-good

    The staff’s hospitality was heartwarming! They went above and beyond, even translating my dietary needs and arranging transportation seamlessly.

    While the charm is undeniable, I found the furnishings a bit outdated and there’s no elevator, posing challenges with luggage.

    Exceptional hospitality and delicious breakfast

    I had a wonderful stay at this charming hotel, where the staff really made me feel at home. The breakfast was a highlight, featuring freshly cooked eggs and a delightful selection of cheeses and fruits. The personalized service from Vural and his team truly stood out, as they were attentive to my needs and provided great local recommendations. One aspect to improve would be the accessibility for guests who might struggle with stairs.

    charming decor
    limited outlets
    cockroach encounter

    Charming decor provides a pleasant ambience.

    During my stay, I faced several issues. The room was chilly, and there weren't enough outlets for my devices, which was frustrating. Additionally, the torn wallpaper and dust in the closet were disappointing. I even encountered a cockroach, which really put a damper on my experience.

    Can't recommend highly enough for strolling

    Comfortable room, friendly staff, with excellent air conditioning and a great breakfast to start the day, all while being just a short distance from the tram for easy access to the city.

    Absolutely impeccable.

    late-night service

    Solo traveler Perfect for a quiet getaway

    The staff were cute and went out of their way to ensure I had what I needed. One night, after a long day, they even fetched me late-night food when I couldn't find anything around.

    It wasn’t exactly cheap but definitely worth it for the quality.
