The staff, Demirie, Irada and all others were wonderful, friendly, helped us and guided us in many aspects. They did everything they could. While i have read few reviews from past guests, I feel most those reviews that complained seemed not valid as the guests should understand that the owners, the staff try to do best to accomodate different types of people. It is difficult to meet everyone's needs but I saw everything good. ##### Mohamed Iqbal Stayed 14 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Helen 10 Dec 2023 Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities Proximity to the sights is perfect.
