While I appreciated the friendly and professional male staff like Mustafa and Turgut, my stay was marred by noise and issues with room service. The breakfast was decent but not particularly varied, and the location, though close to public transport, was quite loud. Overall, it was a mixed experience that could benefit from improvements. 😕🍽️
