Ramada Plaza By Wyndham Silivri
Old room and wear and tear mostly in the bathroom. The other hotel guests were so loud until very late and no one at the hotel did anything about it. Kids running around and slamming doors. Did not use the amenities or had breakfast. Best thing was the view of the water.
