This is a small, five-room hotel on the street behind the beach, more like a guesthouse. If you're after a bigger hotel experience, you'll probably want to look elsewhere. Reception isn't open around the clock, so plan accordingly. My room was pleasant, though a little sparse, and the bed was amazingly comfortable. At 35 euros I can't complain. The location is good and the staff are nice.

The bed was comfortable, and there was a kettle in the room. It’s a new, cute hotel in a good spot, set back from the noise and clubs. My room was at street level and felt too damp, and the cleaning was lacking. We had to ask for clean towels. Stay here if you’re fond of kittens, they’re always hanging around the garden.

The terrace and garden were a nice place to unwind after a day around Bodrum. Nektar and the team made us feel well looked after, and Nektar’s local tips led us to a memorable breakfast at Nosta Firin and a great meal of Turkish food at Nazik Ana. The hotel has a welcoming local feel with modern comforts. It’s close to beaches, bars, restaurants, nightlife, and historic sights, so it worked well as a base for exploring. A lovely little boutique stay for a romantic trip or going solo.

This little hotel is tucked on a quiet Bodrum street close to the beach. The rooms are tastefully done, the staff are attentive, and the renovation of this 150-year-old house is lovely. A real little gem, highly recommended.
