We stayed one week in November on the 4th floor. Here is a detailed review. I have considered both positive and negative aspects:
Positive
----------
Flexible chek-in. The concierge at the counter was very nice and helped with the luggage.
Very efficient air conditioning Mitsubishi inverter. Very quiet with lots of options.
Great big balcony.
The design in general is very nice. The sliding partitions are really smart ideas for separating the bedroom and the rest of the flat. It is also of very good quality material.
We had asked for an extra desk and two chairs, and they were kindly provided.
Classy matte black valves and faucets have high quality.
Very clean and newly built.
Good security, as there are concierges with different shifts.
Good lifts. Schindler.
Negative
-----------
We were given the wrong flat. We had asked for the flat in the photo, i.e. the one that is facing the courtyard, as it seemed quiet enough. But the flat that was given to us was facing the street. We requested that the flats be changed, but we were told that the other ones are all full. This was a big negative. If I knew that it’s going to be a street-facing flat, I wouldn’t have rented it at the first place.
The double glazing window doesn’t close properly so a lot of street noise comes in. Sirens, horns, road traffic noise and azan might interfere with your sleep.
It looked to us that the utensils in the flat were just there to look good, but no thought was found behind them. For example there was no hand washing liquid in the toilets, and no dish washing liquid in the kitchen. Only two dish washer tablets for the dish washing machine (considering that we were there for 7 days, this is just a joke). Only two pairs of forks were available and no small cutlery to use for stirring your tea or coffee.
We asked one the concierges for the dish washing and hand wash liquids as well as small spoons, but they said “you can buy them at Carrefour”.
So to me it looks like the owner is just running a business which he/she doesn’t really have an idea about: hospitality.
Low quality dish washing machine.
The grey mugs don’t seem to be microwave safe, as the handles got hotter than the milk inside the mug.
The building structure doesn’t seem very strong. While we were staying here, an earthquake of 5.3 centred in Ankara took place (google it, it was Wednesday 17 November 2021). Although it was a rather mild earthquake, but the building was shaking. I guess this means not much attention has been paid to the quality of the structure. So if planning to go there during an earthquake, think twice.
Very long corridors.
Since the whole building is apparently newly built, many of the ground floor rooms and parts are not yet in use. Also the entrance that was the closest to our flat (end of the parking space) was locked. Therefore each time we had to enter the reception on the other end and walk a long long corridor so that we get to the other end. This might be about 30-40 meters. Not interesting.
