The location is excellent, and the service is great, close to a shopping center and just a 10-minute walk from the train station.The room is clean with a soft, comfortable bed, but there’s no wardrobe—only a few hangers for clothes.There’s also no mini refrigerator in the room. No gym, or laundry room.The breakfast is good but with limited options. However, there’s a 24-hour complimentary water, coffee, and tea station in the reception area.

The hotel is conveniently located just a 10-minute walk from the train station, making it ideal for guests arriving by public transport. Although it faces the train tracks, the room's soundproofing does a great job, except for occasional minor vibrations when cargo trains pass by. We were able to book the hotel at a very reasonable price, which included a delicious breakfast. The room and bathroom are both tastefully designed, and the hotel itself is relatively new. Even the shampoo had a wonderful scent! Excellent value for money. However, I did experience an issue where the cleaning staff entered our room without permission while we were still inside, and before checkout time. I find this unacceptable and am still awaiting a response from the hotel.

A cataloged errors and miscommunication from start to finish. I was travelling for business and planned to stay for a 5nights I had emailed in advance via the hotel and booking.com that I would be arriving a day later than my booking stated. I wasn’t able to change the dates and was fine to pay for the night and be marked as a no show. I emailed the property direct telling them this, and received an email response stating this would be fine and there would be no issues with my stay or room. Before I arrived a received a message from booking.com saying my room was cancelled. When I arrived they said it wasn’t but now I couldn’t have a double bed, when I’d requested and paid for a king size bed. I was left with a twin room, with a fixed table in the middle and was uncomfortable for my whole stay. They said this could be resolved the next day if I came to ask at reception. I was told that there was nothing for me- two nights running.Also the plug sockets in my room although plentiful only one of them worked with my adapter. I asked to borrow one form reception, and they didn’t have one. They lent me a German plug and that didn’t work either.The breakfast was also probably the worst I’ve experienced in a hotel ever. Rubbery egg, no decent hot vegetarian options other than egg and a very basic fruit salad with poor cereal options. The pastries were good but that wasn’t worth the price.I also stayed to work on my laptop in the restaurant on my final day. I had a coffee and water at breakfast, then the coffee machine was being fixed for the rest of my time there. The water tap also didn’t work that day. I went and bought supplies from the supermarket across the street.When I went to check out the team in charge attempted to charge me for my whole room again despite me having paid in full. It took me explaining to three members of staff that I had paid and my second deposit had been mysteriously refunded with no notification to myself via the hotel or booking.com. I worked this out as I found the refund in my account, but without notification didn’t actually know it had happened. I agreed to pay the second payment again and it took a long time for them to realise that I was correct about this. There was a muted apology but overall it was the icing on the cake of a really sub par experience and I can’t recommend it to anyone

We were traveling from England to Turkey with my family by car. In the evening, we decided to stay at your hotel. Mr. Atif at the reception welcomed us with a smile and warmth. He was truly very helpful to us. He answered all our questions sincerely and kindly. Thanks to his helpfulness and friendliness, my family and I forgot all our fatigue. We felt at home. I would like to thank all your staff, especially Mr. Atif, very much. I will definitely recommend staying at your hotel to everyone. I want you to know that I will share these feelings on Google. I also want you to know that I will definitely stay at your hotel again when I return to England at the end of August.

Tiny rooms, overpriced, no fridge, no microwave, hear through the walls so easily, their hotel parking costs an extra 18 euros for one night when the parking outside costs only 12 euros for 24 hours. Friendly staff but they were not very knowledgeable. Also any time you leave a bad review they leave the same cookie cutter response.
