Very friendly and capable staff, enviable location, fantastic views and accommodating cats.
Pros:

Good location, Fantastic staff, I felt like the Manager had a twin, as he was always available when needed, even if only a friendly greeting.

Cons:

A little more choices for breakfast and Dinner, but we were right in the middle of everything, and there were many eating places very close.

Mérhetetlenül csalódottak voltunk, viszont a rövid itt tartózkodásunk miatt nem tudtunk a helyszínen reklamációba kezden
Pros:

A központi elhelyezkedése és a kilátás a teraszról.

Cons:

Az egész lakosztályban dohos, büdös, penészes szag volt. Az egyik nagyobb lakosztályukban foglaltunk, mivel nászútra érkeztünk Kappadokiába. Kaptunk díszítést az ágyon, kis rózsaszórás, hattyúk a törölközőkből. Ezek még tetszettek nekünk, viszont a fürdőszobában penész, felete lerakódás a fugán, csempén. Ráragadt barna folyás a tusolón. A lakosztályban volt egy emelet, ahol egy pezsgőfürdős két személyes kád volt található. Leginkább emiatt foglaltuk a szállást. Elkezdtük kitakarítani egy ottani boltban vásárolt szerrel, mivel fekete lerakódás volt a kád falán. Miután végeztünk, észrevettük, hogy a dugó nem tartja a vizet, mivel el volt törve. Így nem tudtuk használni a kádat. Ezután a kád alatti plafonból ami a szobánkban volt elkezdett csepegni a víz. A ráadás, hogy a medence tele volt falevéllel. A bár előtt törött székek, padok. Koszos asztalok a rooftop részen és a reggeli előtti teraszokon. Senkinek nem tudjuk ajánlani. Elkeserítő, ha a nászutas lakosztályt így készítik fel, akkor milyen lehet a többi szoba.
A reggelinél nem volt hatalmas választék, viszont finom volt minden. Ez az egyetlen plusz pont, illetve a központi elhelyezkedés.

Charmigt hotell
Pros:

Otroligt trevlig och hjälpsam personal. Fick alltid snabba svar, bra pris på transfer till/från hotellet och bra rekommendationer. God frukost. Väldigt charmigt hotell och bra lokaliserat.

Cons:

Vi hade oturen med dåligt väder under vår vistelse. Vilket gjorde att rummet blev väldigt kallt och tyvärr fanns det inga möjligheter att värma upp rummet. Vårt rum var också högst upp på stället, 4 rejäla trappor, vi var färdiga när vi kom upp och då är vi ändå två friska personer i 30 årsåldern. Skulle tyvärr inte rekommendera boendet för äldre, kolla isåfall innan hur enkelt det är att ta sig till rummet man bokar…

Raro y hermoso
Pros:

Ubicación y la onda de la excavación en roca. Muy buen desayuno con hermosa vista

Cons:

Por el tipo de construcción ( lo más lindo) se genera ambiente húmedo que se soluciona rápidamente abriendo ventana y si se puede puerta... Deberían instruir a los huéspedes en ese sentido... Es sugerencia no crítica
