Mashallah 😍 scammed with taxi via hotel
Pros:

Nice and clean room, lovely staff at desk

Cons:

After getting scammed by the taxi services in Turkey I decided to book VIA the hotel as I received a message from Booking.com (I thought I would be protected from any trickery). I have paid 1300TL at the hotel then asked for ANOTHER 1300TL at the airport- even though we asked for no tolls. The whole trip should be around 1300-1500TL maximum to the airport. I thought booking from the hotel would protect me from scamming but thank you turkey for being the most dishonest country I have ever visited.

Swans Hotel - Totalt snyderi. Som en start booker jeg en taxa via dem for så at opdage at det er en pirat taxa , de send
Pros:

Ingenting.

Cons:

Jeg kunne ikke lide medarbejderne. Stedet. Og måden de tager fat i ens ting.

Pros:

Расположение было супер. Но если ты на машине, лучше не надо.

Cons:

При включении света, резника развалилась. Чтобы включить чайник, нужно выключить холодильник. Вид из окна была старая кирпичная стена соседнего дома.
