grateful stay

helpful staff convenient cafe comfortable room

i appreciated the helpfulness of the staff, especially amin and tural. they provided quick assistance when i needed directions. i found the la perla cafe inside the hotel convenient for morning coffee. i also liked that the hotel arranged a comfortable, spacious room for my family.

the television in the room was quite small. it made it difficult to watch shows comfortably from the beds. i hope they consider upgrading the tvs in the rooms for a better viewing experience.
