10/10 Exceptional

Great location, nice facilities, friendly, professional, and attentive staff. Great renovation with a good attention to detail and truly Turkish character. With the care provided by this wonderful staff I felt like at home. The breakfast was a little too basic and lacked variety.

2/10 Poor

Never again
An unbearable noise from the construction works in and around the place made our stay a nightmare. They moved us to another room, but it was impossible to sleep either way. I wouldn’t go back.
