Most of them speak good English, I had a very nice chat with Arif and Mesut, both of them are really nice guys. The guy at... More

We had a bad experience at another hotel, and walked in off the street and were greeted by a very friendly reception staff. The price was reasonable, the room was clean, the internet was very fast and stable (and free!) even in the rooms. Breakfast is at a hotel across the street, so you have to cross the street and...

They were able to give us recommendations on restaurants, sightseeing, etc, etc. They helped me with the medicines and everything. Highly recommended to anyone who values the... More

This hotel is small and friendly. All the staff were attentive and helpful. Our room was clean and comfortable and the bathroom was sleek and modern with an excellent shower. Breakfast on the rooftop of the nearby Best Western hotel was a minute's stroll across the road. Less time than it takes to reach the dining room of larger hotels... More
