Pros:

Рекомендую

Прекрасный отель с замечательным персоналом. Расположен в самом центре старого города, в 3 мин ходьбы от голубой мечети и остальных достопримечательностей. Номера вполне достаточны для проживания, тем более что мы все время гуляли. Ребята на ресепшене очень дружелюбны. Всегда помогут и подскажут что да как лучше сделать. Чай кофе внизу всегда в доступности. Спасибо огромное за прием! Приедем еще

Zentrumnahes Hotel zu einem vernünftigen Preis.
Pros:

Gute Lage, recht zentrumsnah. Das Personal ist sehr hilfsbereit und freundlich. Zudem sprechen die Leute an der Rezeption gut Englisch. Man konnte direkt Taxi und Ausflüge buchen.
Das Bett war komfortabel.
Die Zimmer werden jeden Tag gereinigt und es gibt frische Handtücher.

Cons:

Obwohl es einen Wasserkocher im Zimmer gab, fehlten Tassen bzw. Tee oder Kaffee. Das Fernsehprogramm ist sehr türkisch, d.h. es gibt wohl nur drei englischsprachige (Nachrichten)sender.

Loved the zem hotel and would definitely return!
Pros:

Location was excellent. Staff, especially Murad, were very helpful in helping us get bags to our room and to the car when we left. They also always greeted us and asked if we needed anything when we saw them. Cleaning service was so nice and left rose petals and swan towels on our bed one day without asking! Cleanliness was very good. Overall great people and great hotel. Would definitely return here and recommend to others!

Cons:

The AC in the room could have been better. Hard to regulate temperatures in the room once someone had used the shower. Got really hot in the room after a shower and had to open a window.
