Such a nice place with great vibe. The owners are making you feel like part of the family and the brekkie is to die for. Situated on the seaside, with great view❤️
Amazing staff and amazing location. The view of the ocean was really nice.
Breakfast was simple but delicious.
The only criticism we have is that we didn’t have a fridge and it was 41 degrees outside.
Overall we had an amazing time together while staying here!
Basic hotel with the best location. Arrived on bicycle, no cars allowed.

Romantic hotel with breakfast in the nice cool shades of the garden. 5 min walk from a beautifull midsize beach where you cant rent a bed with parasol for less than 3 euro a day. The beach was not crowded and it had clear water, relaxing waves and it felt save to swimm. No music at the beach, wich we found hard to find in Turkey, we loved it. The hotel is surrounded by beautifull Roman archeaological sites at 1 to 10 minutes walk, and there are various small restaurants and shops. The hotel is in the autofree zone, but you can drive up to the hotel to bring the luggage, the parking is a 5 to 7 min walk from the hotel. There are also little carts that drive up and down to the parking, so it is easy to get there and the surroundings are absolutelty romantic, beautifull and amazing. One of our rooms was basic, but okay. The other room was ready to be improved; the curtains were to small, the bed was to old, the sheets to, and in the shower we had problems with the showerhead. But I did not mind, for this price at this location, it was wonderfull! Breakfast was nice, a variety of greens and jams, an egg, fruit and olives, cheese and meet for non vegetarians. Bread was superb the one day, the other day it was okay. I would love to come here again because of the atmosphere, the see and the beautifull surroundings. If you don't mind luxury, but do love to stroll around in a pictureque village, and like to sunbathe, swimm and do some shopping, then its perfect!
Really close to the beach (1 min) really far from the parking (15min). Staff is Nice, really good restaurant close to the hotel but expensive. Bad smell in the room (sewer)and the shower is over the toilette its was weird.
We feel really lucky to booked here to stay. It’s a really cute and chill place. We felt really welcomed. Thank you Mustafa for all the help when my friend was sick. Was nice to meet you, we wish you all the best!

This is the most awful dirty and stinky accomodation we ever had.
We do not recommend this place. It is to expensive for what it offers. Everything is dirty and stiky you feel like sleeping in a bed with full of flees inside. Do not book this place.
Bed sheets and linen was stinking. No proper shower. No shampoo. No Wifi. No access with car. Electricity Malfunction. Safe was not working. There were construction works around the hotel.
There were no other guests in the hotel but I was told I could not stay in one of the rooms overlooking the sea because they weren’t clean. Instead I was put in a small room in the back. The mattress was comfortable enough, but the thin blanket meant I had to keep the heat on all night, an unpleasant way to sleep. In the morning I found that the water heater did not work so no hot water. The only pleasant aspect of the stay was the caretaker, Mustafa, who was very friendly and fluent in German from his youth growing up in „Little Istanbul“ in Berlin.
The original room turned out not to have a view so we asked for a change which meant adding a small bed, as all 3 of the seaview rooms just had double beds. NP And then, when the heating unit control stopped working, we moved to another room. This room was originally set up for twin beds BUT only had a double. Too bad for us. But we had a view and a clean bathroom so not so bad but twin beds would have been better. Mehmet was especially helpful and both Hulya and Duygu were great hostesses! Breakfast out front was good and it was great to be in the warm sun (January). Would like to return in the summer.
Viskas buvo normaliai, nedaug zvaigzduciu, bet kaina manau per didele, uz toki kambari, bet gal tokios kainos ten normalu nezinau ,viena naktis 100euru. bet viskas gerai. Pietus buvo labai maza porcija,tikrai neuzteko. Nebuvo televizoriaus kambaryje. Bet viskas gerai nes jo ir neturejo buti. Saldytuvas buvo bendras kolidoriuje pasideti maistui. Labai gerai kad jis buvo. Gaila kad nebuvo jokios mini virtuveles ar virdulio su puodeliais.

Ideales Hotel, wenn man mal mitten in historischen Ruinen und direkt am Meer nächtigen möchte - und dafür in Kauf nimmt, dass der Komfort teilweise auch noch „historisch“ ist: Zwischen „Duschecke“ und WC gibt‘s keine Abtrennung, man säubert also nicht nur sich selbst, sondern zwangsläufig auch die Muschel, die Steckdosen haben einen gewissen „Bewegungsspielraum“ usw.
Mehr als entschädigt wird man durch die sympathischen Menschen, mit denen man gut ins Gespräch kommen kann. Danke vor allem dir, Dogan, dass du so viel Spannendes aus deinem Leben mit mir geteilt hast. Dein Angebot, als Reiseführer zu fungieren, konnte ich aus Zeitgründen nicht in Anspruch nehmen - anderen Gästen empfehle ich es aber wärmstens!
Öncelikle bir çift kişilik yatak olarak tuttuğumuz oda da 3 tane birbirinden bağımsız ayrı yataklar vardı. Oda da ağır rutubet kokusu mevcut. Temizlik konusu fena değildi. Kahvaltı idare eder. Verilen bilgilerde bazen çarptırma hissettim. Bir de içme suyu pazar günü 15 tl den hafta içi 13 tl satılmaktaymış. Biz bunu sonradan öğrendik. Biraz ayıp geldi. Fiyat performans diyemem. Ortanın altında bir otel.
Çok tatlı sevimli bir yer, çalışanları oldukça ilgili ve cana yakın, hayvan dostu bir işletme. Yemekleri gerçekten lezzetli ve sağlıklıydı. Kullanılan nevresim takımları biraz eski, yer yer yırtıktı. Tüm bunların yanında, sorun edilecek bir şey değildi benim için ama dikkat edilse güzel olur. Oda temizdi. Fahiş fiyatlarla her turizm sezonunda yurttaşına yokmuş gibi davranan işletmelerden sonra çok iyi geldi. Tavsiye ederim.

Otele ait bir otopark bulunmuyor. Arabanızı yaklaşık 15 dk yürüme mesafesine parkedebilirsiniz. Otelin en büyük avantajı tarihi alanlar ve plajlara cok yakın olması.
Çocuklumda gittiğim otele meslek sahibi olarak gittim ve çok güzel bir mekan olmuş yıllar içinde kendini geliştirmiş.
Tarihi yerlere olan konumu,ön tarafta denize 0 manzarası ve çalışanların güleryüzlü samimi bu mekanı müthiş bir duruma getirmiş.
Gözü kapalı bir şekilde herkese burayı öneriyorum.
Dette hotel er absolut ikke sin pris værd. Gammelt, slidt og med forfærdelige faciliteter: toilettets afstand fra gulvet = 30 cm! Bruser direkte over wc, ingen niche, elendig seng. Vi ankom sent aften, og der var ingen ligner eller tæpper i værelset. Vi var nødt til at sove med alt tøjet på og håndklæder om os, ingen varmt vand, hvis man ellers ville tage brusebad og svine hele badeværelset til!
Morgenmad først kl. 9.30, men også den var forsinket og i øvrigt ringe.

Slitent hotel med god og rolig beliggenhet.
To par, beliggenhet topp, veldig rolig strøk, nær badestrand ,god og variert frokost. Hjelpsom betjening med litt språk problemer! De snakka dårlig engelsk, bedre tysk! Hele anlegget virket slitent, Fungerer som bed and breakfast Knøttsmå bad. Kan anbefalle spisestedet Anatonia steak &kebab house gamlebyen/hovegata.
