"A great hotel, I recommend it highly. The staff were really helpful to me, especially Suleyman, the front office manager. He gave me all kinds of tips, made reservations for me, and even walked me to a restaurant to make sure I could find it. There's a nice pool downstairs, along with a hammam, and a good restaurant on the top floor with big windows so you can look out at the city while you eat. The hotel is centrally located, with many restaurants and coffee shops in the vicinity."
