I am solo tourist. Good location but poor shower and breakfast. Location is very good.Especially, ƒview on the terrace Common shower room is always wet and dirty. I think the room with personal shower room is probably good. If you want to make good memories, avoid this hotel. But it is very cheap cost. One night 35TL. I am not... More

My partner and I have just returned from staying at the Guven for 10 days and I can't understand why most of the reviews on this site are so negative. We arrived late as our Easyjet flight was delayed but Murat was waiting for us and was happy to open the bar so we could have a few drinks after... More

After reading the reviews on this hotel, I was a little anxious when arriving. I was pleasantly surprised that the room was clean , had clean bed linen ,which was changed daily and that we had a great view of the sea from the balcony in our room ( Room 21). The owners are two retired school teachers, Emine and... More
