I had a lovely stay at this hotel, mainly thanks to the attentive staff and the gorgeous rooftop bar where I could unwind with stunning views. The rooms were clean and quite spacious, enhancing my comfort during the trip. The breakfast was remarkable, especially the variety of Turkish dishes on offer. However, I did find the location a bit lively at times, as there was a lot of noise from nearby bars on weekends. Overall, I felt I received great value for my money with the services and amenities provided.
