L' établissement est idéalement situé. Le personnel est à l'écoute, disponible et très agréable.
Un coup de cœur pour Selçuk et Murat, qui se sont révélés bienveillants et aux petits soins pour nous.
Je recommande vivement cet établissement.

Expectations exceeded
Pros:

We loved the friendliness and hospitality of staff, very clean and cosy hotel. Location was good, great view. After check out, we were able to leave the bags safely in the lobby for many hours until we went to the airport. Can't wait to come back.
