The hotel is very close to the beach, zoo, aquarium and restaurants. The owners of the facility, Haluk and Nana are very friendly and nice people. Haluk showed us around, gave us a tour at the beach and arranged a snorkeling tour for us. Nana assisted my wife to buy some souvenirs. My little daughter became sick and they were very helpful to make her get well. The rooms are clean. The hotel staff are welcoming and smile all the time. I can't wait to revisit the facility.
