I had a fantastic stay at Hotel Bulvar Palas! The staff members were incredibly helpful, with Nur Al-Din even going out of his way to help me recover a lost phone. The room was clean and comfortable, but the breakfast didn't quite hit the mark for Turkish options. Overall, it was a great experience, and I'd recommend it.
