Nice modern facilities. Pool and Turkish bath great. Historical area within walking distance. Construction outside our window was loud. Room could use a luggage rack and desk. Staff was friendly and spoke English well.

A bit tired and worn facilty. Everything seemed of cheap quality. The worst hotel sheets ever. The breakfast buffet offered many things but much of it was of poor quality.

This was a beautiful hotel that is fairly new. My husband and I stayed 3 nights and the service was good. The only complaint would be the beds. We found the beds to be sagging in the middle already and the quality of the pillows were not good at all. The rest of the hotel was fabulous.

Good, but …

Great place. Nice Breakfast and pool, steam bath and sauna. The only issue was a fairly strong sewerage smell coming from the bathroom, which meant we had to run the fan all night and keep the patio door open, which made it a bit noisy. It seems that the staff is aware of the issue, because they mentioned that sometimes it happens when the tide is low, which seemed a bit odd. Otherwise it was a nice place and would have given a very strong review but for this issue.

This was a great accommodation in a large hotel complex that was walking distance to the center. We had a suite with a king bed and large sitting area. Parking was easy onsite with spots in front of the hotel and in a parking garage. The buffet breakfast was very good. We visited in winter and it was very rainy and windy but there were several people there to golf. The rooftop bar was very nice with views of the city. Recommend it.
