Good rooms, longer walk from town centre but not bad on a scooter. Courtyard was nice but usage times are limited due to residential address.

Really loved my terrace room overlooking the ruins. They helped me taxis as well. You can walk to downtown but it has more of a neighborhood feel.

The staff were all incredibly nice and helpful. They gave us a free room upgrade, and the new room was very spacious, clean, and comfortable. They provided free water bottles and coffee/microwave use, extra toiletries, and anything we could need. They also were very helpful in answering our questions and recommending things to do. The only we problem we had was with contacting them after hours, when our key card stopped working and locked us out of the building.

İyi diyebileceğim yanları çok az. Kaldığımız oda rutubet kokuyordu. Bodrum katta yer alan bir odada kaldık. Oda genel anlamda temizdi. Yatak rahattı. Oda içerisinde su, su ısıtıcısı ve kahve ya da çay ile bardak yoktu. Girişteki lobiden almanız gerekiyor. Onu da bulabilir iseniz. Şehir merkezine yaklaşık 20 dakika yürüme mesafesinde. Bulunduğu bölgede otopark sorunu mevcut. Yer bulur iseniz şükredin ve aracı yerinden oynatmayın. Tek ya da arkadaş grubu ile kalınabilir. Uzun vade için tavsiye etmem ama kısa vadelerde uygun olabilecek bir otel.

La réception n'est pas terrible

L'hôtel est situé près des anciens ramparts, à distance de marche de la gare. C'est près de rien, sans être trop loin des attraits principaux de la ville. Ma chambre était située au 2e étage avec une fenêtre donnant sur le lobby de la réception. J'entendais donc le signal d'ouverture de la porte d'entrée à tout heure ou le meeting d'un groupe très enthousiaste quittant à 5h AM. Par contre la chambre était propre et fonctionnel. La réception n'est pratiquement jamais ouverte. Pendant mon séjour de 4 nuits, je l'ai vu ouverte une fois. J'ai reçu un message le jour de mon arrivée me donnant le code d'entrée et m'indiquant où trouver ma clé. Si je n'avais pas vérifié mes courriels au wifi de la gare routière de Tripaka, je me serais buté à une porte close sans moyen de communiqué avec personne. Pas vraiment ce que je recherche pendant mes vacances.
