In the second photo, instead of the hotel, you can see the Ataturk Mausoleum in Ankara. At least that was the case at the time of my booking, in October 2022. Undoubtedly, the mausoleum looks much more presentable than the hotel building. Therefore, do not think that you will stay in a monumental building with antique columns. This is such a favorite trick of Turkish hoteliers to demonstrate what is not there. But in fact to deceive. Having deceived once, you will be deceived again, do not even doubt it. That's the only reason you shouldn't stay at this hotel.
Parking is also a problem. A 4-star hotel should have its own parking lot. And the most amazing thing is that they have it - underground, under the hotel building. For some reason, they don't use it. They will offer to park your car in a "hole" between other cars on the roadway around the hotel building. At the same time, they will not let you do it yourself, but they will take the keys, and they will look for this very "hole" on your car.
Although smoking is prohibited in the hotel (according to the description on the website), the rooms have such a persistent smell of a cigarette house that your eyes water.
The furniture and plumbing in the rooms are old and mostly broken. What should I fix/change the toilet paper holder for? But he flew to the opposite wall along with a roll of toilet paper at the moment when he tried to "measure out" a portion of paper. An appeal to the staff with a request to repair it was ignored.
The climate control unit is present, but does not work. It was very cold in the room.
There is an electric kettle, but it is impossible to use it. The bottom of the kettle is burnt, as if pancakes were fried there, and the water after boiling gets a burning taste.
The sound insulation in the rooms is disgusting - you can hear the sound of water from the next room. If you are "lucky" with a neighbor, at night you will be a participant in your neighbor's bath procedures.
The Internet is very bad. I used the mobile Internet.

Good location of the hotel, near the metro and taxi rank. The city center. The breakfast is average. There was a kettle in the room. The main disadvantages: a smoky room, and the Wi-Fi did not work.
