In brief

What works, what to weigh

Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Value rating is the weakest point — Guests rated the value-for-money at 7.1, the lowest of all categories. While the location and service earn high marks, some may find the room rates a touch high for the modest size of the accommodation.
  • Compact rooms — Some guests mention that the rooms are small, which may be a consideration for those expecting spacious accommodation. The economy single and double rooms, in particular, are likely to feel snug.
  • No on-site parking and no pets — The hotel does not have its own parking, so those arriving by car will need to find public parking nearby. Pets are not allowed on the property.
  • Check-in window starts at 13:00 — Check-in is only available from 13:00 to 23:59. If you arrive earlier, you may need to wait or explore the city with your luggage until the room is ready.

“The staff were really knowledgeable and quick to respond. They organised airport transfers and tours for me without any trouble. The location was ideal – close to all the main sights and the tram stop. The room was spotless, and breakfast on the rooftop terrace with that view was delicious.”

“We had a great view of the terrace from our room. The hotel was right next to many major sights, and the Blue Mosque was within a 20-minute walk. It's about 19 miles from the airport, but the location was perfect for what we needed.”
