    Service: 5/5 stars The staff were the highlight of my stay. They were extremely professional, courteous, and helpful throughout my visit. Their exemplary service deserves a full 5-star rating. Overall, while the staff's performance was commendable, the quality of accommodation and amenities did not align with the hotel's 5-star rating. I would rate my experience at as a 3-star stay.

    It’s a small boutique hotel and you should not expect a 5 stars hotel’s luxury, amnesties and comfort. However staff is really friendly. I would like to specifically thank you for Burcu Hanim in the restaurant who is quite kind and helpful.
