Very dirty and bad hotel! We waited for 10min for someone to check us in, when we got to the room it was stinking of moisture and mold was all over the place, the trash bins were full, the shower was wet as if someone just got out of the shower, there even was some moldy flipflops in the shower and a used feminine razor, definitely not recommended

Awful hotel. Don't believe any good reviews, they must be friends or relatives of the owners. Absolute dive. There was blood and hair on the sheets when we arrived, no hot water, no air conditioning, no drinking water, the place was filthy, clearly hadn't been cleaned in years. The owners attempted to give us clean sheets and fix the hot water, but the new sheets still had hair on them. Eventually hot water was fixed, and we were provided with a kettle and 4 teabags, and some plastic cups unsuitable for making tea or coffee in. Owners were rude, pretty creepy and we felt unsafe at times, they would barge into the room if it wasn't locked, and we're always just outside the window talking loudly and looking up at our room. Please avoid this hotel for your own sanity. Location was mediocre at best, unless you love baked potatoes.

Scammer hotel, they didn’t give us a room after they took a full payment. They told us that they have no more available rooms to give us and they didn’t refund us. Worst experience i get in my life we waited many hours on the street looking for another hotel. Will not go back for this hotel again

This was good for a cheap hotel in a popular area, close to attractions and amenities. The place is old and dated, but for me it was a good choice as I wanted a very budget place. The staff were very helpful and couldn't have been kinder.

The people discrace thier country.

The the two staff dont care at all about people who stay at this so called room.The hotel is literally two mattresses and nothing more they lied about what it suppose to include.I knocked on thier door for an hour with no response at 4 am with 4 young kids.Also the stair case it not enough to put one foot a serious health hazard.Also the hygiene is non existent.It is absolutely filthy dont ever go there.There was not even a kettle or tv.The windows were all broken wich was a very serious danger.I was forced to move into another hotel.Would never reccommed it to anyone.

I wrote much more but was tooo much.smellybathroom

I really like the room it's a beautiful old building with good energy Just it would be better to put white new clean plastic free curtains and there would be a cup I have a huge handicap..after i booked a second night i didn't feel so safe anymore i wanted to pay it via hotels here but it didn't work. shortly after i payed him ( he said cardreader doesn't work and i needed to give my last cash money i can't withdraw cash). It was working..i am to sick and weak for discussion with translation. It seems like the situation good abused. It's very sad and traumatizing because i can hardly walk and see and it's not a 24hour reception. For 500 tl even toexpensive because floor was dirty and should have real wood because it's muchdirt there and best energy with real wood and windows looked like haven't been cleaned maybe 17 years..orless because of pollution..but bed could be more clean also.. taken care of sensitively carefully.my friend called because of the price because i could only communicate with translator. Unfortunately my friend understood to call right away..i requested to call the day after to avoid uncomfortablenrg but was tolate so i was afraid to go outside. I am feeling my body today start to feel face and hands the first time after more than fifteen years..i love that it has high walls and would have booked one night more but ..i was charged to much and need money for food and medicine and i am to weak to go out and get it. It was very smelly and no hot water i need

3 yetişkin ve 13 yaşında çocuğum olarak aratma yaparak bulduğum bir oteldi gittiğimde bana 1 çift kişilik yatak ve küçük bir yere yakın yer yatağını göstererek sizin talep ettiğiniz oda bu , ek yataklı oda talep ederseniz fark vermeniz gerekiyor diyerek o saatte beni ailemle yüz üstü bıraktılar . İptal etmelerini talep ettim olumsuz cevap aldım . Hotels yetkililerine ise odayı beğenmediğim belirtilmiş çok üzüldüm bu cevaplarına hakkımı helal etmiyorum . Hotels müşteri hizmetlerindeki arkadaşada teşekkür ediyorum ilgisine en azından görüşme sağladı.
