Fantastic Location and Breakfast
Pros:

The hotel is in a great location close the key landmarks and the tram, with many restaurants around. The team is wonderful was so helpful with our short stay arranging transfers to the airport - Nothing was too much trouble. The breakfast was excellent and plentiful. We only stayed one night - It was a quick visit.

Great small hotel, with the soul. You can see that it is really taken care of, with all small things thought through. Very welcoming, charming, super stuff that are ready to help any minute.
Very good aircon, rooms in general. And fantastic Turkish breakfast!

Highly recommend. We truly enjoyed!

Schön mit Schlafmangel
Pros:

Das Frühstück war super, der Kaffee ist sehr dünn

Cons:

Das Dach ist schlecht isoliert so ist es sehr hellhörig und die Möven, die dort brüten stehen um 4.30 auf, das Licht im Bad ist sehr schwach
