great location and kind staff

excellent service quieter room higher level

i want to express my gratitude for the excellent service. zeynep, at the front desk, was particularly helpful. she arranged a quieter room on a higher level. i appreciated this since i was jet lagged from my flight.

It took four calls to get someone from reception to answer about an issue one evening. the problem was resolved later and everything was fine. the initial delay was frustrating. the mini bar contained half-drank bottles of beers.
