2/10 Terrible

Hosam

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
There is no internet, the TV does not work, there is no channel, the safe does not work, the room is very, very small, the cleanliness is zero, the service is zero, and the shower window is on the main street. When you take a shower, people see you in the street. It is the worst hotel I have stayed in in my life and it does not deserve one star.

We have had a terrible experience at this hotel which was further ruined by lack of help from Expedia customer service and the hotel staff combined. I would not recommend this hotel to anyone especially if you have young children. Do not be fooled by the pictures you see on expedia website. We saw and booked a triple room with a double and a single bed. What we actually received was a tiny double room. The double bed was shifted all the way to one side, blocking access to the mini fridge and the wardrobe and the little available space on the other side of the bed was filled with a small folding type bed with a thin mattress. Due to this arrangement, the room had very little space to move around as you can imagine. Before our travel, I used the expedia app to send a message to the hotel to confirm if the room as a Kettle/Coffee maker, Mini bar and Iron board available. I contacted Expedia customer agent who confirmed on the web chat that above facilities are indeed supplied. Upon arrival, none of these were present and hotel manager refused to supply these. Bathroom was extremely tiny with no windows and on top of that, the extractor fan was broken. Hotel manager acknowledge this but refused to get it fixed and shrugged us off. Room was generally old and dated, there were exposed wires near the AC unit. We also encountered flies/mosquitos in our room. Hotel in general is a tiny property. There are no lifts and stairs are small and go up in a spiral.

Il ragazzo alla reception ci ha chiesto 50€ su 65€ già pagati in prenotazione, altrimenti non ci avrebbe dato la stanza. La prenotazione non era rimborsabile e siamo stati costretti a dargliene 30€. In tutto 95€! State attenti a queste truffe

NILUFER

Otel genel anlamda fena sayılmaz. Ama Konaklamamızın ikinci gününde havluların kullanım sonrası değişmesini özellikle belirtmeme rağmen değiştirmemişlerdi. Duş kabininde gider tıkalıydı ve çok zor gidiyordu su birikintisi. Yataklar yeterince rahattı
