A nice cosy authentic hotel. It’s affordable. Reminds you of the old times. Even though breakfast was not included in, they treated us to breakfast. It’s very close to the sea.

The hostel needs renovation!
The hostel needs many renovations. Breakfast had the cheapest products, shower head was broken, there were lots of spiders and spider webs in the rooms and hostel, the doors were very old and handles were damaged. Good parts: garden, safety, some of the staff, staff’s being helpful.
Right in the shopping area and only a few hundred yards from the harbour, we found the hotel comfortable and very good value for money, the staff were very pleasant although they couldn’t speak, much English but this didn’t detract from our stay. Nice room, clean sheets etc ,aircon, outside nice garden where we breakfasted. Parking tricky but not impossible.
Good communication from the owner and a warm welcome on arrival. Clean and spacious room for 4. An oasis of quiet and calm in a busy tourist resort. Close to the castle and good restaurants and bars.
The room was extremely basic and dull. Bathroon no better. There was no nearby pool for the use of guests. There was no private beach! Or free use of beach cabanas, umbrellas or loungers .. they were part of the local restaurants. Breakfast is advertised at 40 TRY but on asking was 500 TRY oer person. Overall the facilities noted are incorrect and need looking at. Unfortunately not a good experience.
You are not allowed to speak in the green garden so totally useless. Moody staff are warning you even you are speaking low. If you are going to out and come in late it is problem because whole hotel is locked in the night and you have to call owner or staff to unlock the hotel door.
Konumu çok güzel yerdeydi daha çok iş için gelmiştim Bodrum a otel temizdi ferahtı denize çok yakın ve bütün ulaşmak istediğiniz yerlere yakın Kemal beye teşekkür ederim ilgisi için tavsiye ederim
Hôtel très proche du centre ville, plage à 10 min a pied, centre ville à 200m, proche du bord de mer. Un shop au pied de l'hôtel qui ferme tard ce qui est pratique pour dépanner.
Personnels accueillant, sympatique et serviable. Magnifique jardin tres bien entretenue, où l'ont peut ce detendre au calme sans le bruit du centre ville. Literie assez confort, les draps, couverture, serviettes de bain, serviettes a main sentent extrêmement propre. Moustiquaire aux fenêtres ce qui est super, et le top c'est la clim pour passer une bonne nuit au frais.
Pas de frigo dans la chambre, mais, un à disposition pour tout le monde dans les parties communes.

Excelente atención por parte del dueño y las demás personas que atienden. Un delicioso desayuno en un jardín hermoso. Muy bien ubicado, cerca de la playa y del Castillo de Bodrum.
Las instalaciones sencillas y algo de falta de mantenimiento en el baño particularmente.
Otelin konumu çok merkezi, sahile yakın. Odalar temiz ve kullanışlı. Otel çalışanları güler yüzlü, yardımsever ve kibar. Kahvaltı ve servisleri kusursuz. Gönül rahatlığla kalabilirsiniz.

Orta Düzey
Otelin konumu güzel temizlik orta düzey kahvaltı tek tabakta zeytin peynir domates salatalkk ve 3-4 çeşit reçel sadece bu kadar bilginiz olsun, otelin yatakları çok kötü hepsi çok eski ve bel ağrısı çekmeniz muhtemel
Lovely friendly staff. Overall experience pleasant but they could do with changing the shower curtains as it was too small and having a shower meant the whole bathroom being wet and slippery.
