Cleanliness
8.4
Generally praised for cleanliness (mentions in Spanish, Dutch and Arabic), though a few guests reported a flooded bathroom due to a shower problem and one sighting of a gecko.
Service
9.2
Consistently described as very friendly, helpful and attentive staff across many reviews (repeated positive mentions of reception, breakfast and cleaning staff).
Location
9
Repeatedly highlighted as central and convenient, close to the port and local dining; clearly a major strength though some note parking is off-site or paid.
Room Quality
7.4
Many guests liked comfortable beds, spacious rooms and good views, but there are multiple reports of broken shower fittings, some dark or worn rooms and isolated issues affecting comfort.
Amenities
7.8
Breakfast and parking are the main amenities mentioned: breakfast is often available and generally good, but variety is criticized by some; parking exists but is commonly paid and seen as costly.
Value for Money
7.6
Some guests explicitly called it good value (e.g., 'fiyat performan oteli'), but parking charges and limited breakfast options reduce perceived value for others.
Food and Beverage
7.5
Breakfast is frequently described as good to excellent and plentiful by several guests, though a number note limited choices or light offerings for some diets.
Overall Experience
7.9
Overall positive stays with convenience, cleanliness and friendly staff emphasized; issues like shower problems, parking cost and breakfast variety temper the overall score.

Good location and good breakfast.
Pros:

I loved the view from my room and the breakfast was great. The size of the room was spacious and the location to museums and bus stops was wonderful. You could easily walk around and find places to eat or shop.

Cons:

The room i had was not the best. The shower was not good, it didn't have a closing door and the water did not get hot. I almost slipped because there was no shower door and water go everywhere. I dont know if it was just my room or not, so it may have just been my room. The door also made buzzing sounds for a bit after it was closed which was a bit annoying. The parking was confusing and I did not enjoy it much as it was hard to get out of and it was 10 dollars a day. I did not like leaving my keys with someone as I was afraid I wouldn't be able to get out if I needed to early in the am.

Breakfast was excellent

Cons:

Passabile
Cons:

La doccia non aveva la chiusura e di conseguenza tutto il bagno si allagava ogni volta , inoltre c’era un mega geco in camera in mezzo alla tende
