Wonderful location right next to the tram station, close to all the main attractions, and with easy access to plenty of great restaurants. The entire staff is very friendly and treats guests like family. Special thanks to the receptionists—Timur and Yunus—who are incredibly helpful and offer excellent hospitality.
