Ala Baykuş Otel

Great place! Very nice place, hidden from the crowds in the center. Even if you stop by for a drink you are welcome. The hotel manager was super nice. Thanks for your hospitality! I had a great time.

The hotel staff are very helpful and delightful. They checked us in earlier upon availability, offered us a shower room after we checked out, and helped us with getting around the city and off to the airport. The location is amazing, it's just by the end of the main touristic street, which promises a 3 minutes walk to be in the middle of the action, but staying in calm and quiet street. The breakfast is provided until 11h however they were nice enough to serve us around 12h. The hotel has a really nice pool and a beautiful atmosphere where you may also sun bath. Some of the lower floor rooms are directly facing the streets so they're a bit noisy (with families and kids around not tourists) so it's not bad. My only concern is that while the rooms are nice and using cozy decorations, they have used complex decorations of different materials like wood, stones and marbles. Such materials are a bit harder to clean due to gaps and cavities that clusters dirt, and so they require extra care. Such gaps weren't as clean as expected, as I could've seen some stray hairs and dust. Lastly, don't expect WiFi to reach most of the rooms, pretty much only the main lounge and pool areas are covered.

Overall the place is fine at best. It has a pleasant lounge/pool area but it is not clean at all. A lot of dirt from the plants and trees that didn't get cleaned the 5 days that we were there. The rooms are cozy but our bed had a problem with the wooden frame. It would break and I would have to fix it. Even though I informed them to fix it they didn't. Also the room service was subpar, our room wasn't cleaned for 2 days. And as for the breakfast it was not enough for 2 people and they charge you for everything that you order extra even for the coffee. Overall the place would be an amazing destination if it has a bit more love from the staff and would get cleaned more often.
