Lovely place to stay
All the staff where wonderful particularly Betül and Emra. The rooms where nice, very clean with comfortable beds. The only negative was the music in the evening, coming from the bar next door.

Joyous Stay
The joyous hotel lives up to its name. It was supper clean, efficient and the friendly staff were always welcoming and offering any help they could to make my stay better.
I was upgraded to a balcony room because it was available.

In overall everything was good. Not much options on the breakfast, but still satisfying. Staff is friendly and helpful. Double room is big enough and the presence of a balcony is very pleasing.
One minus is noises from the pub downstairs and from the street, if you an early sleeper or with kids not the best place to stay.
But we really enjoyed our stay.

Friendly staff, room in rough condition above pub
We chose this hotel because of the proximity to the bus station but we wish we stayed somewhere else. The hotel was in a rough condition. It was mostly clean but there are random holes and lots of wear and tear. Our room did not have a mini fridge. We did not have towels when we checked in. The bathroom had three small bottles of shampoo but no soap. The beds were not comfortable. One of the walls is all windows and we must have our key card in the slot for electricity, so when we return to our room in the late afternoon, it is very hot in the room. You must enter your passport number everytime you return to the room to log in to wifi. The hotel is right above a pub and it’s incredibly loud at night. People at the pub stand outside and smoke cigarettes and the smell and smoke came through the closed windows. Our clothes smelled like cigarettes. Several times at night we heard loud beeps in the hallway. We thought it was smoke alarms from the cigarette smoke but we learned in the morning that it was alarms on the room doors when someone doesn’t close the door all the way. The windows had blackout curtains but it did not matter because the AC unit above the bed had a bright white light that lit up the room. The breakfast was just okay. I would not stay here again.

Uyumak istiyorsanız kalmayın
Gys sınavı için eşimle bir gecelik tutmuştuk odayı, balkonda ders çalışayım dedim bitişik binadaki hamburgerciden dolayı leş gibi yağ kokuyordu oturamadım, yatakta oturarak çalışmaya çalıştık ama baza sürekli öne kaydı. 202 nolu odadaydık 2. Katın asansör kapısı bozuk olduğu için asansörü kullanacak herkes 2. Kata gelip asansör kapısını sertçe kapatmak zorunda kalıyordu. 19.00 dan gece 03.00 e kadar sürekli asansör kapısı çarpma sesi ile irkildik. Şehir içi bir apartman olduğu için 00.30’a kadar mekanlardaki müzik sesi odadaydı, ses yalıtımı diye bir şey söz konusu değil. Aynı şey oda kapısı içinde geçerli. Sözde ışık geçirmez perde vardı, oda küçük olduğu ve koridor olmadığı için ortak alandaki ışıklandırma gece yarısına kadar odayı tamamen aydınlattı. Gece de ışığı kapatmak akıllarına geldi ama otomatik yandığı için her asansör çarpmasında kata insan geldiği için bir de oda aydınlanıyordu Asla uyuyamadım, gece 03.00 gibi biraz dalabildim ama sabah 6 da gene asansör kapısı çarpması ile uyandım. Ben 2005 yılında Şırnak a göreve gitmiştim otel silahla taranmıştı ve elektrik yoktu orada bile bu kadar rahatsız olduğum bir hizmet almadım en azından uyuyabilmiştim. Resepsiyondaki eda hanım ın asla bizim iyiliğimiz için hareket ettiğini sanmıyorum, asansör kapsısının durumunu bildiği halde bize kapının yanında verdiği oda kabusum oldu ve bana büyük ihtimal 3 yıl kaybettirdi. Kendisinden ayrıca şikayetçi olmak istiyorum. Odaya geçtiğimizde tuvalet temiz değildi ve mühürlü değildi.
