There was a smell of sewage in the rooms. All day and night noise. You hear an ambulance all the time. There is no Wi-Fi in the rooms. The hotel does not have a lobby, they just rented it to a restaurant. Small rooms. And at the end of the stay they wanted to charge us for every wash of towels.

Old sagged beds and bad manager

The beds were horrible. The manager was rude and changed our 4-person room to a 3-person one for a couple of days one of us did not show up even though we had paid for it.
We could not get any sleep due to the horrible old mattress. Towels were wet, staff were all nice, but the manager was not.

The manager was rude about it. Made me pay upfront before seeing the room which makes it harder to cancel and go elsewhere.

When you take taxi the taxi drivers ask for extra charge because of the busy traffic at that area all the time. Over priced and I don’t recommend.

Can’t sleep at night because the roof was literally shaking with every beat of the clubs downstairs
Every time I’m entering , the staff at reception is asking about my room number and checking on system to see if I’m telling the truth
Had my cousin passed by and they didn’t allow him to come up to my room although nothing is mentioned in hotel policy
They didn’t even put water in my room for the whole 3 days I spend there

Özellikle girişte resepsiyondaki Aybek Bey çok yardımcı oldu . Lüks beklentisi olmayanlar için fiyat/performans olarak kesinlikle tercih edilebilir bir otel.

Hotelli on hyvällä paikalla. Huonot puolet ovat kova meteli yö aikaan yökerho alakerrassa. Seinät hotellissa ovat paperia sillä kuulet naapurien keskustelut. Olin varannut huoneen parvekkeella ja minulle annettiin tavallinen huone ilman parveketta. Asia kuitenkin korjattiin kun valitin asiasta, mutta tähän meni turhaa aikaa. Parvekkeellinen huone oli kuitenkin kalliimpi ja olin sen maksanut joten pidin puoleni. Hissi ei aina toiminut joten hyvää kuntoa vaaditaan jos olet ylemmissä kerroksissa. Samoin avain kortti oveen ei toiminut jos kävit ostoskeskuksessa. Piti aina aktivoida uudestaan.

Der Service kann nur besser werden.

Das hotel konnte uns wegen dem schlechten Service nicht überzeugen. Die Wände unseres Zimmers waren außerdem hellhörig und die Fenster bei der lauten Umgebung nicht gut isoliert. Der Lärm aus den Nachbarzimmern und von draußen war nachts unerträglich für uns. Die Heizung und die Klimaanlage werden zentral gesteuert, so die Aussage eines Mitarbeiters an der Rezeption. Somit konnten wir die Zimmertemperatur nicht individuell nach unserem Geschmack regeln und sind mit einer dicken Erkältung zurück gereist.

Otel misafiri ağırlıklı olarak Araplardan oluşuyor. Sabaha kadar bağırışıyorlar. Onlardan bıkmış olan resepsiyonistlerin tavırları bu yüzden biraz bezgin ve özensiz. Eski ve yenilenmiş bir otel olsa da bu yenilenme sadece bir makyaj olarak kalmış maalesef. Koridorlara ağır bir koku sinmiş. Havalandırma gürültülü çalışıyor ve zor ısııtıyor. Hepsini geçtim, deniz manzaralı odamdaki yatağın yayları çıkmış. Bir tarafı çökmüş. Hiç bu kadar rahatsız bir yatakta yatmadım. 850 liranın karşılığında çok şey beklemesem de bu da beklenmez. En kötü otel deneyimi olarak ilk defa böyle bir değerlendirme yazıyorum. Sonuna kadar hak edildi .
