We had a wonderful stay at this hotel. We felt very welcomed and extremely well looked after by all their staff. We arrived early and the check in staff managed to get a room ready for us ahead of schedule which we greatly appreciated. During breakfast we were looked after by Erhan who was very friendly and helpful. Warisha also made us feel very welcome. Great location - highly recommend this hotel

Overall the hotel is good. Food was also perfect at the breakfast but they should change the menu everyday, I noticed same food all the days. People who are serving the breakfast are so kind and respectful. Location of the hotel is perfect. The restroom is too small.
