adequate stay with some drawbacks

helpful staffvaried breakfastdelicious breakfastsmall roomshort bedfew sockets
The staff was helpful. Idris was especially helpful! the kitchen staff, ahmet and karina, were also great. i used the pool and sauna . breakfast was generous and varied. it was also delicious.
the double room i booked was small. it was like my small bathroom at home, and it was hard to move around the beds. the beds seemed short so if you are taller than 160 cm you might consider other hotels. there was only one socket in the room plus another in the bathroom.

mixed feelings about the stay

decent selectionsmall bathroomold mattress
The breakfast was acceptable. It had a decent selection.
My room was not what i booked. I reserved a double room but received two single beds (this was frustrating). the bathroom was small, and the mattress and pillow felt old and uncomfortable (i tossed and turned all night). there was little attention to cleanliness in the room as well, which really bothered me.
