Hotel is not what it advertises itself to be. The worst experience so far.
#1 PAINT & ASBESTOS
the lobby, first & second floor was covered in plastic, smelled like asbestos & paint. Renovation was not mentioned on Expedia. inhaling chemicals is dangerous. room had paint and mold odour.
#2 NOTHING LIKE ON FOTOS
booked an apartment suite. The room did not look anything like on fotos. No ocean view. That’s not the expectation you get when browse through their fotos
#3 LOUD
room faced a busy street with vendors, constant flow of people. Windows have no sound proofing at all. Being in the room was like sitting next to a loud bazar. We could not sleep the first night at all. The bar nearby blasted loud music till 2 am. Constant flow of drunks yelling.
A block away construction going on till 3 am there was loud hammering and drilling, it seems Turkey doesn’t have laws prohibiting loud noise after 11 pm.
#4 NO WIFI IN ROOMS AT ALL
#5 MARKETING CALLS SAME NIGHT
Upon check in filled out paper, provided my phone #, this was the only place in Turkey I provided my phone #. Same night several marketing calls from Turkish tel # after 1 and 2 am. It seems concierge sold my contact info to marketing agencies.
#6 HOTEL REFUSED TO REFUND
didn’t sleep at all. Knowing hotel offers no alternative rooms,we left this hotel at 7 am, telling the reception that the night was unbearable, unacceptably loud, the guy just said "Ok. The hotel REFUSED to refund the remaining 3 nights of stay.
