Disgusting! Choose another hotel!
Disgusting! Please do a favor for yourself, book another hotel. Even one star is too much for this place. I have booked it only for one night in order to get my flight on time the next day, but even staying one hour would be too much here in such a bad condition: they gave you used pillowcases, blankets and towels which are not only dirty but even have traces of blood (!) on them. The walls are moldy and the WC is unusable since it is hidden behind the door and wasn't cleaned before I arrived. Shower doesn't work. After my complaining at the reception desk (who only speaks English with you, even if you are a Turk), I got another room. But what a surprise, it was quite the same with one distinction: the walls are wallpapered. No breakfast, no water was included although it was described. In total, this hotel offers you nothing what you have seen in the pictures or texts on the booking sites. They are just cheating all people!

NIEMALS !! So ein dreckshotel. Wir haben gebucht, bezahlt, angekommen. Es hiess wir haben keine Zimmer frei ?!?! Noch nie gehört sowas.man sagte uns die hätten einen Partnerhotel wo wir hingebracht wurden 2 min fussweg. Eingetreten, ekelhafter geruch, sofortige blacklist vor den augen. Genauso schlimm wie das erste hotel. Kurz zimmer angesehen, sofort abgehauen. Würmer auf dem holzboden, kaputte verschimmelte fliesen, ekelhafte dunkle fugen.die ganze decke mit braunen wasserflecken. Alle tapeten gelöst. Klimaanlagen in 1000teilen. Wir hatten unseren 1.5 jähriges kind dabei, der auch mal auf den boden geht und spielt. In so einem Hotel niemals. Keine schliessfächer, keine handtücher. Verreckte klimaanlagen, die fast auf unsern Kopf gefallen wären. Naja man könnte noch sehr viel schreiben. Bucht das niemals. Für die eigene Gesundheit.

Oldukça kötü
Tek iyi tarafi konumu ve fiyati. Yatakta bocek vardi, oldukca pis ve eski bir yatakti. Odada yeterli priz yoktu, televizyonu aciyorsunuz ama anteni fise takamiyorsunuz. Banyosu cok kotuydu, dus kabini yok lavabonun yanina duş takmışlar tuvaletin dibinde banyo yapıyorsunuz. Gecenin ortasında otel değiştirmek zorunda kaldıöin yataktaki böceklerden dolayı.
