fantastic stay
friendly staff free wifi
The reception staff were always friendly. i appreciated their willingness to assist. the power went out in the room. It was fixed quickly. i found the free wifi accessible across the hotel.
the restaurant lacked variety, and the food options were not really 4.5 star worthy. i think more diverse selections are needed. prices seemed higher than the quality.
Rooms
8/10
the room had two complimentary bottles of water daily. an iron and kettle were available. i found the room included an ashtray, even though smoking is not allowed in the room, strange.
Facilities
9/10
the hotel has a gym. i noticed that the pool seemed small and could get crowded. the hotel also has designated smoking areas on each floor, which i found convenient.
Service
10/10
i had to request ice from the restaurant each day. they were happy to provide this. the staff were generally friendly. they spoke enough english, which helped.
Location
9/10
the hotel isn't located in a heavily tourist area. it is about 25 minutes from the city center by taxi. i found taxi fares to be around 400 turkish lira.
