i particularly appreciated the readily available breakfast. it included local yogurt and fresh fruit. fresh bread with turkish chocolate hazelnut spread and fresh coffee was also available. the staff showed professionalism and patience. they heated up food we purchased outside and allowed us to use the dining area.
i noticed that the hotel interiors seemed a little dated. the rooms were still comfortable though.
