Reviews

The bedsheets had stains, everything is a bit old and the breakfast is not great at all.

Only location, Do not ignore the negative reviews as I did. This place is a scam run by an unstable individual. There are plenty of high-rated, clean hotels in the same area. Just google and you will find, Save your money and your dignity—stay elsewhere. Think a thousand times before booking here. If you value your dignity and comfort, do not stay at this place. As a frequent traveler, I have stayed in many hotels worldwide, but I have never encountered such treatment or such a disastrous experience as I did at this property It was, without a doubt, the worst hospitality experience I have ever encountered. Booking & Payment Deception I initially booked through Booking.com with an immediate payment option. Shortly after, the hotel claimed my credit card was invalid and threatened to cancel the reservation within 12 hours unless I paid cash only. • Despite my card being perfectly functional, they insisted on cash to evade taxes and avoid paying Booking.com’s commission. • The manager promised to cancel the online reservation once I paid cash, but he never did. Now, my Booking status shows the hotel can charge my card at any moment, even though I already paid in full in cash. He refused to give us a receipt Staff Behavior & Safety The "manager" at the reception is extremely rude, Agressive and unprofessional. This thing clearly lacks basic manners and professional ethics; his behavior was so unstable and erratic that I suspected he might be under the influence of some substance When we complained about broken facilities, he started screaming and cursing in English and Turkish. He attending to attack us and eventually kicked us out of the hotel and locked the door, arrogantly telling us to "go call the tourism police." I don’t need you at my hotel Even when the police arrived, he lied about the situation. He only provided a payment receipt because the police forced him to. He is aggressive and completely lacks basic manners. Room Condition & Maintenance The room was in a terrible state: • The refrigerator was broken and non-functional from the inside. • Heating: The underfloor heating was uncontrollable, turning the room into an unbearable furnace.

Very bad experience and hotel staff behaviour is rude All are bad

OK breakfast and room OK, location good. The other service person was polite and customer oriented. Hotel did not accept a credit card payment but required the payment in cash and they did not deliver receipt for the payment. The person in check-in complained that the room price is too low to be profitable... why then use booking.com platform to sell their service. Wi-fi did not work until the second day evening during the stay and that was not told during the check-in either.

Literally nothing Terrible Experience. Would give 0 stars if i could. I recently stayed at Mehmet Bey Hotel in Sultanahmet, and it was an extremely disappointing experience. The room we were given was filthy, with bed bugs and outdated furniture, there was mold and smell of mildew everywhere. extremely dirty room and bathrooms. the bathroom was leaking toilet water and when we told the receptionist abt it he said he’d fix it in the morning when we knew we were only staying a night ? wtf ?and towels were wet and used. We booked through Booking.com, but the hotel gave us the wrong room after charging us ?. We originally booked two large rooms with a double bed, but the receptionist rudely charged us for a big double bed room while giving us a single, small room instead. He kept insisting the hotel was full instead of refunding us our money and refused to listen to our complaints, even when we showed him the issues using a translator. The staff was unhelpful and dismissive extremely rude. morning of check out we went for breakfast and the guy at the reception (morning shift) dismissed us completely and started telling us that its over and that we only have a hour before we leave the room in such a disrespectful manner. making our stay uncomfortable and stressful. I would strongly advise against staying here.

Cold breakfast every morning Dated decor, could do with modernisation

Location was excellent The receptionist was highly rude, arrogant and had misbehaved with me. They don't provide drinking water in room. It's chargeable. They don't replenish tea and coffee bags. Air-conditioning was ineffective.

no comments The Server, who was also the Receptionist, was so very rude and should/are NOT to work in a GUEST SERVICE/Leisure job. No proper English (neither the lady cleaner) and wrong attitude, rude. Breakfast was NOT breakfast... There was only Turkish Coffee nothing alternative in Coffee and the selection...My partner and daughter went to have breakfast and came back to the room terrified... Then i went to see my self and could not believe it...! No words about the selection .... in other words, breakfast was Not existed... When i asked Receptionist, to see the Manager/Owner, he was rude and tried to provoke me to fight (literally moved towards me) with him. !!! That's unbelievable. For a lesser time, in Reception there was a female staff... Smiley and very kind, smiley but...Limited English...!!

we went on Friday, we parked in front of the hotel, everything was fine, on Saturday a family had parked two cars behind us, we were out for a walk and when we came back I saw that a white Renault with Istanbul registration (34) was parked between the two cars, we got out and on the way back, my car had a damaged rear bumper, I asked for a recording from the cameras, but they didn't give me one, I already spent 150 euros to fix it. Don't go there! If they are correct, let them pay me at least half the money

location cold water, no toiletpaper, and bad treatment from the personal their.

I paid for bed and breakfast with parking, but there is no parking. The owner does not even help to find paid parking. Breakfast is at 8.30 / 10.00, but at 8.40 there is not much to eat, although there are not many guests. The room smells musty and is neglected. In order to pay the price at which the room is booked, you must have Euros in cash, otherwise a large surcharge will apply
