    The building is a low-rise building and I got the corner room with a window that was eye level to everyone on the street and right in front of an alley that turned into another hotel and a residential area. Which means if my blinds were open, anyone could see directly into my tiny room and could possibly even reach through the window to take things. I had to be very careful not to open the window all the way and to close my blinds when I was changing. It was also awkward for me as a woman who wears hijab and if I come back next time I will be sure to not request this room (the other rooms were higher up than mine, not at street level). The wifi was bad. Perhaps it was just my room, but half of my very tiny room had 2 bars of wifi and then if you sit on the bed there was no wifi. So I wasn't able to use the wifi much when in my room but in the lobby it was ok. The walls of the rooms are also very thin and I could hear the chatter and snoring in the next room, but luckily the guests weren't too loud. If they were the type who stayed up and talked all night it would have been a big issue. The reviews talked about balconies but not all rooms had one (mine didn't) although there is a communal balcony on the floor that is usually used by smokers. The cleanliness of the room was ok, not superb, but fine.

    The location was great as it was at the bottom of the big hill and two steps away from the old town. Many other hotels were up the steep hill which I was so glad this wasn't. The breakfast was fine, I liked that it was until 10am which gave me some time to sleep in. Breakfast was good but simple although I do wish they offered a toaster for the bread. The staff were nice, the wife who does most of the customer-facing work is pleasant and friendly especially if you make more of an effort to smile and chat. She would bring me tea when I would sit outside to read and relax after a long day, which was much appreciated. I am a solo traveller woman in my late 20's and I felt very safe and comfortable here. I am not sure if the price range was on the higher or lower end but I would consider coming back next time.

    Family-run hotel in the very centre of the old town, charming and nice. The owners were really helpful and super nice. We go a parking place (though not so easy to park given the location). Good breakfast, very decent room

    The hotel is a bit old. Some of the doors do not work properly. There was no kettle in our room.

    The location of the hotel is excellent. It is just a few minutes away from Bascarsı. The hosts were really helpful. They tried to make their best for us.

    The beds were old and uncomfortable. The triple room was quite small and there was little space for our bags.

    The location was perfect - just a stone’s throw from the old town. The management were friendly and upon request can pick you up from the airport.

    The bathroom was not very big and convenient (no counter space, very small, may need some updating). It's a little bit of a hassle for a family of 4 with 2 kids.

    The location was perfect, the hotel was nothing fancy, but it had just what we needed. The breakfast had everything we needed to start the day. The staff was courteous and helpful.
