Great location, not very peaceful

Hotel location was great and bedrooms were good, all the basics were provided. The walls are very thin so you could hear lots of people moving around, particularly the loud cleaners who would chat away very loudly in the mornings on their phones making it impossible to lie-in.

Had some maintenance issues. Toilet was not flushing. No mattress pads on the bed. The curtains were not hanging correctly. We had a nice room after upgrade. The initial room was too tiny for 2 people to be comfortable.. Very central to all of the tourist areas and mosques.

Otel konum olarak çok iyi, gezilecek yerlere ve restorantlara rahatlıkla ulaşabilirsiniz. Sakin ve sessiz bir otel memnun kaldık. Tek negatif bulduğum temizliğin hijyen olarak bi üstmseviye de olmasını isterdim, özellikle lavabo bölümünde. Öneririm rahatlıkla gelip kalınabilir. Kahvaltı da gayet yeterli ve manzarası çok güzel.
