Pros:

A szállás könnyen megközelíthető helyen van, közel a látványosságokhoz. A személyzet nagyon kedves, segítőkész. Ár érték arányban megfelelő.

Cons:

Az ott töltött két éjszaka alatt nem volt takarítás a szobában, amely nagyon furcsa volt, nem tapasztaltam még ilyet más szálláson. A reggeli választék számomra nem volt megfelelő.

Pros:

Henkilökunta oli hyvin vieraanvaraista ja ystävällistä. Huone oli siisti. Aamiainen oli monipuolinen.

Cons:

Iltaisin kuului jonkin verran meteliä läheisistä ravintoloista, mutta alue hiljeni puolen yön tietämillä.

Pros:

Curățenie, amabilitate.
Personalul de la cazare a fost foarte amabil, ne-a ajutat si ne-a sprijinit cu informații utile pentru excursie, ne-a împrumutat cartela lui pentru transportul in comun.
Un turc care e diferit de ceilalți... nu doar pe profit ...omul e foarte parolist si te ajuta cu tot ce ai nevoie.

Чудовий персонал

Загалом все добре, але номер потребує реновації стін

Pros:

Прекрасный отель! Остались только положительные впечатления от проживания. Везде очень чисто и аккуратно, номер комфортный и ухоженный. Отличное расположение — всё необходимое находится рядом, удобно добираться до основных мест города. Отдельно хочется отметить завтрак — очень достойно и сытно.

In summary, it was a terrible experience and a bad decision if you have kids along.
Pros:

It’s 10 minutes walk to grand bazaar and located in old city

Cons:

Oh I have a huge list. We booked three rooms and I faced multiple issues.
- a few items were broken in the room which includes shower head, roof light (which keeps on blinking when turned off at night)
- we were told cleaning will be done every 3 days instead of every day. We had kids with us so we requested on second day to please clean it and they did but that’s the only cleaning they did in our 6 days stay. Even the cleaning they did, they did not change the sheets, did not clean the toilet (stains were there). They did not even empty the full bins in toilet. We thought they might clean up a day or next after that but no cleaning until the end.
- Not just this, they checked our rooms after we left because first night the lady came to us, took to a clean unused room and said this is how the room should be and not how you left it. It’s like living in a shared place with strict owner.
- There were 3 families and first day one of us had to go early so went downstairs for breakfast. They said they will only serve breakfast if all families are there otherwise no breakfast for us :) after debating 15 minutes that we have a dentist appointment and please serve us food today, they allowed us to eat without the rest of the family.
- They have a single iron in whole hotel, if you need it, wait for your turn 🫠
- Building it self was disappointing because downstairs it was a full time restaurant with around 9 rooms in whole hotel if I am not counting wrong (three small bedrooms on each floor)
- Staff (2 ladies and 2 men in total) will treat you nice when in good mood otherwise they’ll make you feel like they are doing a favour by letting you stay here.
- thin walls so not comfortable in terms of sound.
