The staff was kind but the condition and the organization was poor. I’m definitely not going back to this hotel.
Pros:

Breakfast

Cons:

Location, condition of the room, size and type of the bed, the dirt and smell…

Na jedną noc - wystarczający
Pros:

Bardzo dobra lokalizacja i skromne ale smaczne śniadanie. Miły personel.

Cons:

Łazienka - mała, brzydki zapach z kabiny prysznicowej, cieknący kaloryfer i ręczniki zużyte.

Pros:

The staff is extremely welcoming, helpful and cheerful, this part is 10 out of 10,
The room was clean enough, not even smelling of smoke.
The breakfast was alright.

Cons:

Very noisy, since the early morning it's almost impossible to sleep.
WiFi was working, but it seems that a cheap tariff is in use: the speed was really slow.
View out of the window.. Better not open it at all.
The room lighting is really dim, and shower is in half-broken condition,
On the weekend, during and after the vegetable market right outside the hotel, the surroundings get really dirty and foul-smelling. This isn't the hotel's responsibility for sure, but it is its actual surroundings.

Clean and lovely hotel in the center of Izmir
Pros:

City center location. 8 minutes walk from metro we took from Izmir airport. Pedestrian streets with lots of restaurants. 15-20 minutes walk to tram to take to Konak to see the clock tower and relax in front of Aegean Sea. Good breakfast. Clean room with a window you can open. Friendly and efficient staff. Farmers market on Sunday with fresh produce. Took guided tour to Ephesus. Very historical.

Cons:

Shower drain needs to be snaked for easy flow of water which is an easy fix.

Pros:

Der Hotel liegt in Zentrum und nah am Meer 😊

Cons:

Also das Frühstück war eine Katastrophe, kein Obst und keinen Säfte, das Besteck war dreckig es gab's immer das gleiche!!!! Das Personal hat keinen Ahnung von Frühstück Buffet und die Tische war nicht appetitlich abgewischt mit so einem dreckigen Lappen!!! Wir haben Zimmer gebucht mit Küche, bei nächstes Mal buche Zimmer ohne Küche es hat kein Sinn da gab's keine ordentlichen Küchen Untersielieen .Die gesamte Beleuchtung in Zimmer und Bad gingen nur
halber an die anderen Lichtschalter haben nicht funktioniert. Zu unsere Zimmer mußten wir durch so genannte Korridor ins zweite Gebäude , der Aufzug war sehr laut . Dieses Hotel ist geeignet für Klassen Ausflüge ect. Wenn man bisschen Komfort erwartet dann lieber wo anderes buchen. Thomas und Anna aus Österreich.

A reasonable, bargain end hotel, I would stay again but only for a short stay.
Pros:

Easy access from the airport, close to a number of reasonably price restaurants, tram and a Sunday market. Staff friendly. Breakfast was OK, small selection, but enough for 2 days.

Cons:

On arrival we were told that even if we check out 5 minutes late we will be charged a full day!! Rooms were quite small and access to the en-suite was tight. Not a hotel you can kick back and relax in, after a busy day sightseeing as there is no lounge area.

It was very nice staying in the hotel.
Cons:

I would kindly ask if you could send me an invoice for my stay. Alternatively, could you please let me know who I should contact regarding my booking? What is the procedure for obtaining an invoice? Please.

Vorallem war das Personal an der Rezeption und die Direktorin des Hotels sehr zuvorkommend.
