I have to inform this, hoping it does not reflect on the people working there, who were very kind: I was in room 304, and the small bed is infested with bed bugs. I thought at first I had some allergy, later confirmed typical lesions caused by bed bugs. So beware

The breakfast was excellent, and the location, just a stone’s throw from the Grand Bazaar, was ideal. However, the room was smaller than expected for the price, and there was noticeable mold on the walls. While the room cleaner and breakfast service staff were exceptional, the front concierge left a bad impression by attempting to charge us more for an airport cab than other companies.
