Mostly great
Reception provided a warm welcome and are very helpful and kind. They helped sort out things that needed translations and were very obliging. Breakfast was super. Chef came out at breakfast, helped to explain the beautiful breakfast spread, and ensured that everything was ok; he even cooked a special Turkish dish to try. Thank you very much to the very kind, helpful, and hospitable staff! :)
The only, and biggest, problem (and not unique to this place so, please consider it) was that the hotel smells very strongly of cigarette smoke, starting right at the entrance. So strong that I felt stifled in my room, as if I had been trapped in a room full of active smokers. Even at minus five to ten degrees Celsius overnight, I had to keep the window open, which had minimal effect since the nicotine smell is completely embedded in the building and as such, difficult perhaps for the staff to notice as they may be smokers themselves and/or have become accustomed to the potent stench. This smell then soaks into one's own clothes/luggage. Unfortunately, this appears to be a common issue with accommodation in Turkey, as I too encountered this in many hotels. (And, guests can easily read about similar comments with other hotels).
So, aside from the overwhelming nicotine smell, this place was wonderful -- very kind and helpful staff; great location close to airport, and excellent breakfast.
