A perfect hotel in Cappadocia!

It was one of my favourite hotel I ever stayed. Hotel was beautiful. The staff were very kind and friendly. We arrived in the late evening but we were welcomed by the staff and the manager with tea and snacks. The hotel was renovated from three cave houses to the current hotel and I was interested in details of those cave dwellings so the manager was kind enough to show us all the rooms that were not occupied and the church that was in the property. All of the rooms had very unique stories and details with beautiful finishes. Most interesting part for me was the cave that was used to be a hidden church which was left untouched and the manager was very kind to show us the place. The location was also perfect, very quite and private. The view of local cave houses and cliff were also beautiful.

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities
4 gün 3 gece konakladık. Yorumlara bakarak ve puanına göre odayı çok beğenerek seçmiştik fakat gidip görünce aynı etki olmadı. Oda çok basıktı, hijyen olarak orta seviyedeydi. Yatağımız rahat değildi , eskiydi. Kahvaltı çeşit olarak azdı ve biten kahvaltılıkları takip eden bir personelin olmayışı müşterilerin sürekli biten ürünleri hatırlatmak zorunda kalması hoş değildi. Otelin önünde iş makineleri vardı manzara yok otelin konumu iyi değildi. Tekrar gelsek bu oteli tercih eder miyiz sorusuna yanıtımız hayır olurdu.

Sakin bir konaklama

Güzel bir odada konakladık iki katlı, üst katı kullanmadık. Şömine yanmadı kendi hazırladıkları hali ile ancak yardım istesek eminin yardımcı olurlardı. akşam soğuktu, klima açılsa sıcak olabilirdi ancak gürültü olur muydu bilemiyoruz.
