Worst Hotel in the World

İ am staying at hotels nearly 100 nights a year for so many years due to business in different parts of the world. And i only leave comments when i am really satisfied. However, this is by far the worst hotel i have ever seen. Sheets were dirty, people were rude, at 08.30 in the morning on Sunday we have woke up with a drilling noise next to our room (within the hotel). We made a complaint to lobby and they stopped for few minutes & continued anyway/anyhow. This hotel should be closed & should never recommend or left on the any agency page.

Hotels.com da otelin ücretsiz otopark hizmeti yazıyordu ancak otele gittiğimizde çalışan personel böyle birseyin olmadığını söyledi. Oda temiz değildi, tv çalışmıyordu, kahvaltı çok vasattı ve hijyen değildi, göze hitap etmiyordu.odada yerlerin kayıyor olması da diğer sıkıntılı bir durumdu, odadaki halı dahil pisti ve tozluydu.hiç memnun kalmadık, çok üzgünüm.

Der Service an der Rezeption ist furchtbar und die Zimmer sind eiskalt. Sie haben mich einen Tag lang hingehalten und schließlich bin ich am Abend in ein anderes, kleineres Zimmer umgezogen. Und nur ein Mitarbeiter namens Abdullah half uns für alles außer dieser Person, das Personal ist ärgerlich und das Schlimmste ist, dass die Bettwäsche meines Zimmers schmutzig ist und sie nicht ändern sie. Ich empfehle es definitiv nicht, weil es sehr ärgerlich ist
