Really good Hospitality and Service

The hotel staff showed amazing kindness. Mehmet and Ozgen, the Manager, especially stood out with their professionalism and attentiveness. I was warmly greeted by Furkan upon arrival, whose knowledge and professionalism made an excellent first impression. The room was spacious and clean.
one of my belongings, a valuable handbag, went missing from my room. While the hotel management investigated, they offered no compensation or alternative solution. This situation raised concerns about security and accountability.

Security Concerns and Inconsistent Service

missing iteminconsistent service
I found the security measures somewhat lacking after discovering an item missing from my room. The hotel staff did not offer to review security camera footage, very frustrating. This lack of assistance was disheartening. I also had issues with inconsistent service during breakfast. Staff often forgot requests, I would have to ask repeatedly for the same items.
