"The hotel, cleanliness, decor, rooftop bar, breakfast, location, staff, and free access to the hammam, spa, and pool are all very good.
There are a few drawbacks, which is a bit of a shame. The hotel doesn't provide bathrobes or slippers. This is unfortunate, as you have to go down to the spa fully clothed and change in the changing rooms downstairs. I found the pool area a little neglected. The water was nice and warm, but the jacuzzi jets, hydrotherapy jets, and chromotherapy shower were under maintenance. The speakers above the pool were rusty, which made it look a bit neglected, which is a shame. On the other hand, the Turkish bath and sauna were very good."
