We had a great time here, the courtyard was beautiful to sit in, the breakfast was excellent, particularly the hot eggs, be sure to try the fried version with hot pepper....room very comfortable, service was quite good. The free car service to the sites like Ephesus, Sirince, the House of St Mary, and the train station (also walkable) was very convenient. The restaurant on the top floor of the associated Bella Hotel is very good and reasonably priced, and the view of St Johns and the storks is precious. We did not feel any pressure to eat here but did so anyway twice during our stay, the mezze were well done, as were the main dishes. We noticed that some other reviews mention that the owner also runs a rug and ceramics shop and they felt pressure to buy. We did not experience this pressure, but we did agree to listen to the sales pitch on the rugs, which was quite interesting, though we did not buy, and there was no pressure. We did buy some fantastic ceramics at a good price, recommend checking out ceramics, the owner has a special artist, and also has relations with other miniature artists who also do other drawings. We bought one excellent drawing of Istanbul that we liked and we got a package deal with the ceramics and they packed it up very nicely for transport. All in all this was a great place, highly recommended...
