The breakfast selection was substantial, including traditional turkish dishes. the location worked very well. It was near both a metro stop and a tram line. i found it easy to access many attractions. That was a plus. the spa downstairs provided a relaxing space. I enjoyed the massage service.
the air conditioning didn't work perfectly. i could hear some noise from nearby rooms. the sounds were quite audible, slightly bothersome during my nights.

The location was ideal. It was near the subway station and tramway stop. The staff were very kind even though I arrived quite late at night.
The room walls felt very thin. I could hear everything going on in the rooms on either side. This really ruined my stay. I needed rest after exploring the city all day.
