    Internet was terrible. I had to work on Zoom, the connection is super weak. I was disappointed because I was choosing a hotel with WI-Fi. So I was using my Internet for all 3 days. There was no filter coffee for breakfast.

    It was clean and comfortable.

    Nothing- it met my expectations

    Location is excellent, about 5-10 mins walk from the ferry terminal. The.hotel has a certain faded grandeur like a lot of properties on the island. The guy on reception was great & dealt with any queries. Pool area is absolutely lovely & well maintained. There’s a separate breakfast room & terrace which is also lovely; good coffee & usual Turkish fare.

    Need some renovation,we found the bathroom wet and in the ac was not cleaned the filter, so if you have an allergy to dust, it's gonna be a problem. The pool is very nice, but it was impossible to use it because there are not enough beds.

    It's pet friendly, not so easy to find pet friendly hotels and especially beaches in the island. Location is perfect,a few minutes away from the crowd of the main square, very calm and easy to reach.

    We had a room on the ground floor, probably that’s why it smelled humidity in the room and it didn’t seem a cozy place to stay. The breakfast was quite poor.

    The location is very good, close to the port and central streets. The pool is clean, the furniture in the pool area is new and comfy. The staff is friendly.

    The staff is not friendly. Too few of them and they don't speak English. Unfortunately this is normal in Turkey.

    The Hotel is nice. The swimming pool is small but clean. One of the only hotels with a pool on the island. Nice location.

    The rooms have quite strange smell, like something wet was left there and we needed to open the doors when we are around.

    The hotel is located not so far from the Vapur stations and the road took us about 10 min. Everything looks perfect, we had 2 great rooms just in front of the pool, so it was extremely nice. Breakfast is good, we went to eat quite early because of children and unlikely so early anything hot was ready. But there are cheese, ham, olives, second day it was salad etc.

    The small but pleasant swimming pool was very welcome in hot weather. Check in/check out times were flexible. Breakfast was very good and plentiful, and staff very friendly. Our room was quiet and comfortable (despite facing the street) and had a balcony which we appreciated very much.

    We were asked to pay extra at checkout for something as basic as an omelette we had at breakfast. That is not a problem though, but I found it strange because no one had told us that something as basic as an omelette was considered as an extra when breakfast was already included in our package. Communicating with the staff at the hotel was a bit of a problem if you compare it to Istanbul city.

    The room was perfect and we were provided with a cot for our child. The location of the hotel is also excellent. The hotel in general is very well kept and the pool area is ideal for relaxing and sunbathing.

    Great value for money. I stayed in a standard room that goes into the street. Room was clean and had all basic amenities. I made a request prior to my arrival and staff were very accommodating towards me. The hotel provides typical Turkish breakfast at the terrace overlooking the pool. The staff speaks Turkish and little English, but they are very pleasing and provide good service. Even though the pool is pretty small to swim, it was clean and one can still enjoy it along with a sunbath.

    For me it was a bit far from the boat dock where we arrived. The hotel did send someone to take our luggage to the hotel for us, but there was no transportation to take us to the hotel. I have a painful leg so waking uphill fir 15 minutes or so was difficult.

    It was quiet and lovely and well maintained.

    They had fresh paint in the rooms and in the hallways . The odor was very strong, and we got a headache from it. The toilet was clogged, and i asked for a plunger, but they didn't provide one. In the first morning, we didn't have any water because water pressure was low. They said they dont have a water pump to support water pressure. The pool was advertised on the website but it was closed so we couldn't swim. Minibars were not working, so we couldn't have any cold water.

    Breakfast was very nice and the ladies in the kitchen were very friendly. .balconies had a nice street view.

    I asked for the largest room, and they told, that this is the largest room. But in fact, the next room was a lot larger and it was empty. Noone sugeested me to move into it The neighbours were having sex for 5 times in a day for 2 days, and I could clearly hear them every time. The room is "smoking free" in the description, but in fact there was a strong sigarette odor everywhere. The wi-fi is pretty weak, it was almost impossible to work there. The lightning is poor, many dead bulbs.

    Location is good, great seaview and sunsets.

    I didn't like the room first of all. The screen door had been giving issues we needed to be hard when we closed that. Also the room was very small for two people. I couldn't turn on the air-condition. I got flu and I wanted to make it warm but it wasn't work with warm part.

    The pool was good. I liked the breakfast that we had eaten at the restaurant. And the employees were very kind and friendly.
