    A very positive experience

    Liked : The location is excellent. On Saturday mornings, they have fresh market in the street, a different and lovely experience. The owners are wonderful, friendly, helpful accommodating and kind. I will definitely stay with them again.

    Outdated Listing but Worth Staying if you Know What to Expect

    Liked : The room was ok but it took 4 nights for this place to grow on me due to all the surprises from the listing. Other than price, the real bonuses here are the owners and location. The sweetest people run this family-owned business; their homemade peach jam served with breakfast the best I've ever had in my life! Location is also prime with convenient walking distance to train station, bus lot, Selçuk attractions, and a bountiful Saturday Farmers Market that sprawls in all directions from in front of the hotel. Good WiFi, plenty of hot water, and I did appreciate the shower curtain to keep from spraying over the entire bathroom. I would stay here again.

    Disliked : I stay so many places, I accept responsibility for not reading some parts of the listing more closely. For example, that the lead pictures of the pool are at another location and not part of the rooftop terrace (empty space). Or, that soap and shampoo toiletries are not provided. Thankfully, I always travel with some and there was hand soap and a left behind bottle of watered down shampoo on the bathroom sink. However, there's no escaping that the listing says they accept credit cards. They don't, and thankfully I read that in a review and came with cash. I booked a double room, says queen bed, but listing photos show two single beds and that's what I got. The mattress was really soft, which I like, but turning over was a challenge in the small bed when sunken into a body divet. In addition, listings say all rooms come with private bathroom but there were two shared bathrooms in the hallway that other rooms were using. And the balcony? A narrow door hidden behind the curtain that opens onto an outer hall you can get to by stepping over edge of the bed. I WOULD STAY HERE AGAIN, but future guests should be aware of what they're getting.

    Liked : This place is run by a sweet elderly grandmother and her five older daughters, so it truly feels like staying with relatives or like stepping into a Turkish TV series. On Saturdays, a lively local market unfolds right around the pension, adding even more charm and atmosphere. For this authentic experience alone, you can easily forgive any small imperfections. The traditional breakfast is delicious, especially the homemade quince jam prepared by one of the daughters. The location is perfect right in the city center, just a few minutes’ walk from the train station and the dolmuş stop to Ephesus. Warm blankets, comfortable beds, and complete silence at night, I slept like a baby. If, like me, you’re just passing through Selçuk, this is an excellent value-for-money option and one of the most affordable places in town.

    Disliked : In the evening, another guest aggressively tried to break into my room, banging on the door and windows and shouting. It was extremely frightening and made me feel unsafe. I did not lower the rating more only because the hosts themselves were not responsible for the unacceptable behavior of this guest.

    Perfect host, excellent price, good location for one night stay

    Liked : Good location in the center of Selcuk, short drive to the Ephesus site entrance, close to the Archeological Museum.
    Perfect, friendly lady/owner, good breakfast, rooms for one night OK. We arrived quite late, after 2 AM but it was not a problem for the owner. Thanks.
    Considering location and a very good price, we recommend this stay to visit Ephesus

    Very nice place.

    Liked : Good location in town centre. The place is clean, has good beds, airco, and good warm showers. The place is run by a very friendly family. One of them speaks basic English, and a younger daughter speaks good Dutch. Breakfast is decent. On saturdays the place is engulfed by a very large market.

    A perfect counterpoint to the hustle & bustle of Istanbul

    Liked : An authentic family-run pension in the heart of Selcuk with three lovely ladies offering a warm welcome & hospitality, a traditional breakfast, and basic but adequate rooms, with balconies. The Saturday market on the doorstep extending way into the square & side streets was a highlight, as were the short walks to the train station to the left and the bus station to the right. All manner of shops, bars, cafes restaurants adjacent, Selcuk is a wonderful little town, and then there's Ephesus a short hop away!

    Disliked : 5 storeys up, but then it probably did me good & just what I needed!

    Value for Money 100% recommended for Bachelors and Solo Travellers

    Liked : The staff was awesome. It was really close to the bus station. Breakfast was good, it was a good way to start the day.

    Disliked : The WiFi here is super slow most of the time. I wish they could fix that. Also, the power outlets are in a weird spot, and only one thing can be plugged in at a time because the other outlets are too close.
