2/10
Disappointing hotel experience. The hotel is run-down, old, and its glory days are long gone. The room was not clean, and the bed was hard and uncomfortable.
The pillows had what appeared to be bloodstains or some other dark spots, though the pillowcases were relatively clean. There seemed to be mold on the mattress as well.
The staff appeared unprofessional, more like vendors from the local bazaar than hotel employees, and didn’t seem suited for the hospitality industry. We never felt completely safe during our stay, although in the end, there was no real danger.
The worst part of our experience was that the staff didn’t seem to care about the hotel itself; their focus was on the “restaurant” or “Meyhane” (as it’s called in Turkish). From 8:00 PM to 1:00 AM, they played loud, blaring music, turning the hotel into a disco rather than a peaceful place to stay.
The music was so loud and the partying so intense that sleeping was impossible, and it all took place right outside our balcony.
After the first night, I requested a different room. They moved me without any issue, but since the hotel is so small, the change only made a slight difference.
The hotel is located past the old castle on top of a hill, making it difficult to walk up and down. There is a small bus (dolmuş) number 5, which costs only 20 lira per person, but the hotel is far from the city center with only a small kiosk nearby.
The one positive aspect of this hotel is the great view from the rooms.
