Hotel Yaka Inn

The view of the sea and castle from the balcony was just perfect. My room was clean and had hot water and air conditioning. I spent two nights here, and it’s one of the best places I’ve stayed in Turkey so far. Parking is on the street right in front of the hotel. Since it was off season, I didn’t get the open breakfast shown in the pictures, but the breakfast we did have was generous and varied, with eggs, cheese, jam, butter, vegetables, and olives. The staff spoke only a little English, but enough to cover basic accommodation questions. I’d gladly come back, especially for the fortress view.

We only stayed one night, and enjoyed it. The hotel is by a large bay with two fortresses, lots of restaurants nearby, and an ideal spot for spending time at the beach. There’s a lift, and breakfast was served buffet-style. Our room was small but fine. We could see the sea from the balcony, though it faced another hotel, and we hadn’t expected even that partial view. Parking along the main road wasn’t ideal, and we were lucky to find a space, but this is a tourist area. Staff don’t really speak English, which is also to be expected.

I booked easily by contacting the owner on WhatsApp, and the price was very acceptable when I stayed. This is a low-cost hotel with a great location, surrounded by attractions. The main entrance is on the street, and it’s right beside a beautiful sandy beach, facing Girl's castle on one side. Local shops and restaurants are very close, and buses make it easy to reach other places. There’s a nice garden, and breakfast is included. The room had a fridge, TV, and towels. Nothing luxurious, but it has what you need. Serdar at reception was a helpful, smart, and informative gentleman. He helped me arrange visits to Adam Kayalar, Cennet and Chennem, Asthma Cave. Another gentleman was nice too and made an early breakfast when I asked. I’d recommend it.

The hotel is clean, centrally located, and reasonably priced. Breakfast was good too. I’d highly recommend it.
