    Staff made it feel like home

    During my stay, I enjoyed the heartfelt warmth from the staff, especially Harun and Ali. Their genuine care truly made the experience memorable. The room was comfortable and the location was ideal for exploring the city's wonders.

    Also, some attention to minor cleanliness details would improve the overall experience.

    great location
    cramped room
    limited space

    Great location for exploring the city.

    I had a frustrating experience with the room size. The pictures online did not match our Family Room. it was cramped and congested. My kids were genuinely upset upon seeing how little space there was to move around, and we were told there were no alternatives available for us to switch.

    Perfect Family Stay with a Cozy Atmosphere

    Our family enjoyed a three-night stay in a well-kept room, despite its size. The kids loved the nearby dining options, especially the authentic Turkish dishes. For future guests, explore local eateries just outside for a great meal experience. Friendly staff made our stay memorable!

    basic breakfast

    The location is unbeatable, with a quick walk to both the waterfront and major attractions. Staff members are genuinely friendly and always willing to assist, making our experience enjoyable. The breakfast offered basic options but the desserts were a nice touch. However, the room was a bit cramped, making it less comfortable, and some minor cleanliness issues were present upon arrival.
