Nice swimming pool, good staff, rooms really hot.
Pros:

It was a very nice hotel in the middle of the city centre. The rooms were a little dated but were clean and nice nonetheless! The bathroom was recently redone and was amazing. The staff was super friendly and helpful! The swimming pool was clean and really nice, highlight of our stay!

Cons:

The rooms were really hot. The windows open a bit but didn’t let much cool air in. The airco in the room did not work, but a fan was provided. Sleeping was a nightmare because of this.

Şehrin tam merkezinde her yere yürüyerek gidilebilecek bir konu
Pros:

Kesinlikle öncelikle konumu olmak üzere, danışma personelleri ve yardımsever tutumları. Özellikle danışmadaki Serda hanımın alakası.

Cons:

Klima çalışmıyordu ve konaklama süresince düzeltilemedi. Oda terliği gönderimi de unutuldu malesef.

Pros:

A localização do hotel é ótima e fizemos tudo a pé. Tem restaurantes, lojas e mercado próximos. A equipe foi bastante simpática. O quarto tinha um tamanho bom e era confortável.

Cons:

No dia que chegamos tinha somente um funcionário trabalhando na recepção e portanto o check-in demorou bastante. Outro ponto não tão positivo é que o quarto não era muito silencioso a noite, mas pela localização central acho que vale a pena. Uma pena a piscina não ser aquecida, teria tornado a experiencia ainda melhor.
