I had a wonderful stay at this hotel! The location is absolutely fantastic, right in the heart of the old town and just a short stroll to all the major attractions.

On the downside, while the dining options included breakfast, it could use a bit more variety. Overall, it was great value for money, especially with the easy shuttle access to the airport for only 30TL.
