"It was overall a good experience. Few things to note is that you have to ask for everything more then once. Kanan, Mert, hussain were nice to talk to and easy to communicate. Especially Mustafa who took care of you entering the hotel to exiting. Couple of things need to bring to management’s attention are fixing the Air condition and please switch it on when Hot. Bathroom fixtures requires some fixing please as the cold water doesnt come contentiously in the tap. Rest assured the accessibility...
