The location proved ideal! it was a brief walk to both a lovely restaurant area and the grand bazaar. tram 1 offered convenient access to other parts of the city. I found it very useful. my room was clean and spacious. It created a very cute atmosphere.

the hot water in the shower was a bit intermittent though i always managed after waiting for some time.

central locationhelpful staffdaily cleaningorganised service

The location is a definite plus. it is close to many restaurants and only a short walk to the grand bazaar. sezgin at the front desk was particularly helpful. I appreciated his excellent service. the daily room cleaning was well done and very organised.

hot water in the shower was sometimes inconsistent. this was a minor issue, and i did not bother to report it.

the room was spacious and it featured a very comfortable bed. there was always hot water available, which i found important. i liked that they restocked water bottles and tea bags daily, it was a very nice touch.
