Not good, wouldn't go back
Pros:

Personnel and location are good.

Cons:

It definitely needs maintenance. There was sewage smell coming from the bathroom sink, everything is dated and not taken care of. The breakfast isn't good.

Pros:

Хотела е на топ място , точно зад Синята джамия и е близо до всички забележителности. Хотела има превъзходна тераса с градина на покрива от която се разкрива чудна гледка към залива

Lage war sehr gut, Zimmer waren okay
Pros:

Das Personal war sehr zuvorkommend. Lage ist top

Cons:

Das erste Zimmer roch stark nach Schimmel und hatte Flecken an der Wand. Nach Ansprache durften wir das Zimmer wechseln. Die Zimmer und Betten sind Renovierungsbedürftig.

Pros:

Отлично местоположение и изключително внимателно отношение. Въпреки, че бяхме само за една нощ се постараха да се чувстваме добре. Човек винаги отива някъде заради услугата, но се връща заради отношението. Ние определено ще се върнем. Благодарим!

A történelmi részek tökéletesen és gyorsan elérhetőek, városnézésre mindenképp ajánlott szállás.
Pros:

Nagyon kedves és segítőkész vezető fogadott minket. Mindenről tájékozatott minket/mire figyeljünk, mit tegyünk, ha probléma merül fel/akkor nyugodtan hívjuk és jön segít//.
Mindent igyekeztek megtenni, hogy jól érezzük magunkat és ez sikerült is.
A hotel nagyon kellemes környezetben , nagyon szép kilátással rendelkezik a tetőterasz.
A személyzet is nagyon kedves és segítőkész volt. A reggeli bőséges és mindig finom volt.
Csak ajánlani tudom a szállást, mi még biztos visszatérünk.

Cons:

Nem találtam ilyet. Amire készülni kell, hogy mivel közel van a Kék Mecset, ezért az imára hívás némelyeknek zavaró lehet, napi ötször. minket ez nem zavart egyáltalán.

Maravillosa
Pros:

Excelente atención del personal, desayuno muy completo.

Cons:

Nada, todo excelente, si tendria algo para observar es el baño que es bastante chico pero entiendo que tampoco hay tanto espacio en esa parte de la ciudad.

Merci pour ce beau séjour!👍👍👍
Pros:

Nous avons passé un excellent séjour au Katelya. Le petit-déjeuner était délicieux et varié, avec des fruits frais, des viennoiseries et même du miel en rayon 🤩
Le personnel était accueillant, attentionné et discret. Tout était très bien organisé et nous nous sommes vraiment bien reposés.
En pleine chaleur, retrouver la fraîcheur de l’hôtel était particulièrement agréable!

Cons:

Rien à signaler 😊
