Always asking for more money! The breakfast was not good! Don’t take any of the tours! The lunches included are disgusting! You are much better off just going to the local restaurants on your own! Remember the grand bizarre is closed on Sunday:)

The property is unique and very nice , they just have a problem in communicating and making promises they cant keep , for example taking a deposit and telling me they have refunded it and 5 days later it still is not in my account . What really caused the problem was they took it out of an account i did not permit and without my knowledge . So i advise to be careful with your bank details

Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities
I was tricked into believing a full breakfast was included if I upgraded my room to executive suite. (Breakfast was barely a continental breakfast at most). I did not receive an executive suite, I was put in a corner junior suite and than promised it was an executive. Why charge more for an « upgrade » that isn’t an upgrade. I checked out 3 business days ago and still don’t have my $700 Canadian deposit back yet but they’re quick to take money from me with no explanation. It’s a good location and the room was nice but don’t let them fool you into believing you’re being upgraded and will get all these bonus things because it isn’t worth it!

Pros: Staff are very friendly and polite. Room is clean. Area is excellent, tram is few meter away Cons: The front hallway after the hotel entrance is hot ( for some reason) Bathtub is not convenient ( you need to have a very high step to get in ). Another bizarre notice: one of the employee knocked the door on our 3rd day of stay ( not the day of check out ) and insisted to check the minibar ( even that I told him we didn’t use it ).

This property requires renovation. Poor reception service. They charged us for the third person and sent a broken cot to accommodate. This was not fair to charge an extra occupancy and not provide a proper room. Pls, save your vacation and avoid this hotel.

Liked: Cleanliness
The property was located in a good area near a tram. Rooms were small and the spa smelt like a damp towl. Constantly stinking . The room cleaning service was exceptional especially Kemal who went out of his way to make our stay comfortable. The concierge was helpful when we checked in however they didnt offer to help us remove bags on our check out which was disappointing. Over all a fair stay but definitely not a 5 star hotel more like a 3 star .

1. Extremely bad internet. 2. Room was not very clean. 3. Pillow sheets were yellow-ish and not very clean. 4. Extremely hot in general both in the lobby and very hard to set AC in the room. I demand a freaking refund because I had to go to a coffee shop and stay there for hours in order to use fast Wi-Fi to do my work.
