Ali Baba/s House
It is a quaint location near restaurants, shops and most importantly historical attractions like Ephesus, the Ephesus Museum, etc. The owners and personnel were warm and friendly. The only thing we didn't see was a wardrobe in our room.

Ali Baba and his wife were very welcoming and hospitable. Ali Baba kindly drove us to Ephesus free of charge. The breakfast spread was great and I would highly recommend eating at his restaurant which was delicious home cooked food for very good prices. The house was clean and comfortable and in a nice quiet area. We wish we had stayed another night.

Location is the best for everything to do in Selcuk. Owners are friendly. Breakfast is not the best, it could be better for the price of the rooms, as well the room supplies

I highly recommend staying at Ali babas. Him and his wife are very sweet host. Their place was clean the a/c worked, bed was comfy and the shower had hot water, that’s all I needed. Their restaurant is a 5 min walk from the residence and the Kababs were delicious, if you haven’t been to the restaurant as yet then you need to go!

Two thumbs Way up!
Ali was excellent! Such a welcoming, kind man and offered superb hospitality. His place was immaculately clean, had excellent wifi and a lovely breakfast included as well. We ate dinner at his restaurant just around the corner and Ali made for us a fantastic, vegetarian dinner and again, offered wonderful service. He even taught us about Turkish carpets and how to know quality from knock-offs. Two thumbs Way up!

Clean and centrally located
Given the reviews and price, I was expecting something with a bit more style and comfort. It’s not luxurious, but it does have its good points. Firstly, the owners are lovely. Friendly, helpful and keen to please. Secondly, it’s centrally located in a quiet neighbourhood. The rooms and comfort level are fairly ordinary. Clean and spacious, but fairly basic with wifi that only reliably works in the courtyard and breakfast room. I was happy with the stay, but would have liked a bit more comfort and a stronger wifi connection.

Great Guesthouse but not wheelchair accessible
Ali Baba's is a great guesthouse. It's in a great location. It has a lovely courtyard. The room we had was large and scrupulously clean. The hosts were welcoming and gave us great breakfasts. I would stay here again without hesitation. It is, however, not wheelchair accessible and I booked there based on the information that it was. As we arrived they were in the middle of building 2 ramps for me which worked delightfully. The bathroom in our room was not wheelchair accessible but if that is absolutely required a large hotel is probably your best bet. This worked for me.

Une nuit à Selçuk
Le séjour dans cet hôtel (maison d'hôtes) familiale fut très bien. Les propriétaires sont adorables, serviable et soucieux de plaire. Il est situé au centre d'un quartier calme, parfait pour visiter la ville. La chambre est simple, propre et spacieuse avec une connexion wifi et le pdj est compris. Le restaurant que tient les propriétaires est aussi très bon, les Gozlemes sont à tomber :) n'hésitez pas à le tester.

Excelente ubicación. Recámara amplia y limpia
Nos gustó mucho el lugar, pequeño porque era una casa pero acogedor, la recámara es súper amplia. Ali es muy amable tiene también un local de kebab a la vuelta, no estaba cuando llegamos pero vino de inmediato porque su esposa y ayudantes no hablan inglés. Había leído comentarios negativos pero por el precio, me parece excelente la relación calidad. cuando llegamos tenían ropa tendida porque usan el sol para secarla, particularmente esta vez no me molestó pues se ve que aprovecharon el espacio. Esta a dos cuadras del la central de autobuses que te lleva a Efeso, caminamos a todos lados (templo de Artemisa, de san Juan) y la terminal del tren está a 10 min caminando para irnos a Izmir. 6 de 5 estrellas.
