Front desk day shift guy was very rude and smoking by the lobby door all the time. Room ceiling showed sign of water damage by the AC unit. Every night around 3 am, people start shouting and yelling. Never new who and why. Overall it was a vey frustrating experience. At least we learned to never completely trust the pictures on the website. Expedia should do a better job to check the veracity of the items they offering to users.we had to go in person to check our next hotel before booking it.

Gutes Hotel,sehr zentral 👍
Ich hatte das Zimmer mit Balkon und Meerblick. Es hat sich gelohnt, nur hätte ich das Zimmer größer erwartet,weil es eigentlich für 3 Personen wäre.Ein Doppelbett und ein Einzebett waren zur Verfügung gestellt. Das Badezimmer war auch sehr klein. Coronabedingt war das Frühstück nicht mit viel Auswahl,besser gesagt kein offenes Buffet, aber das Personal war stets bemüht auf die Wünsche der Gäste einzugehen. Frühstücken mit Meerblick war entspannend.Frau Ayhan war sehr lieb und hilfsbereit. Sauberkeit war auch ok. Die Lage ist auch zentral,paar minuten zu den wichtigsten Sehenswürdigkeiten und zur Tramstation. Apotheke und Supermärkte direkt auf der selben Straße und gute Restaurants. Die ganzen Mitarbeiter waren sehr freundlich und Hilfsbereit. Den Corona test habe ich auch direkt im Hotel gemacht für den Rückflug (230TL). Alles in einem war es gut gewesen,würde ich weiterempfehlen.

Little good words about a nice stay in a nice hote
Our stay was excellent. Clean hotel. Beautiful location despite the crowds and the small narrow streets. Staff very helpful, respectful, caring and welcoming (especially Mrs. YAĞMUR Hanum). However, I advise guests with cars to make prior arrangement (preferably with the hotel) before arriving on site to arrange parking). The breakfast is simple but very nice and adequate with a very nice view of the buffet room.

2 night stay in the Olimpic Hotel.
It was a good stay for the price. The location was very good for foot traffic. The staff was very friendly to me and allowed me to check in earlier than 2pm so I wouldn’t have to leave my luggage just chilling while I went out and about. I did the 10€ boat tour that they offered at the front desk and it was pretty legit for the price and they pick you up from the front desk. I am happy that the staff was very helpful! Even made sure I got in the correct ride to the airport. Thanks!

Un peu déçu , l’hotel Est bien situé certes mais les murs sont très fins ont entend tout dès 7h du matin. Le service transport est extrement cher (70€ aller-retour) Petit déjeuner catastrophique rien à voir avec les photos pas de jus juste de l’eau ou café , ils nous servent un plateau avec un œuf dur, 3 olives, 1 pancake très sec et un peu de pastèque
