The hotel is located in a convenient spot but difficult to reach by public transport in Turkey. The service is good too, in line with what is expected as everyone in Turkey is known to be a little reserved. The dining options are currently poor, possibly due to the hotel being new, but they do offer grilled fish. Overall, the facilities are satisfactory, although the location can be tricky to get to without a private vehicle.

I had a lovely stay at this hotel! The rooms were spotless and well-equipped, making me feel comfortable during my visit. The service was top-notch, and I received everything I needed with a smile. The location, although a bit challenging to reach by public transport, was still charming and convenient. The dining options were a bit lacking, possibly due to the hotel being new, but the Danish pastries were a treat! The facilities were adequate and served their purpose well.

The service is excellent, reflecting the warm hospitality Turkey is known for. The location is somewhat challenging to reach by public transport, but once you arrive, it's worth it.
