Efeleler Hotel is in central Aydin and I was glad of the help of satellites guiding me in. Private parking is opposite the hotel and the porter came to me in the car park to offer help with my bags. This was the start of excellent service throughout my stay.
The safety of guests during Covid times was obviously taken seriously with temperature checks, HES code records and enhanced cleaning all being evident.
The room was large and the air conditioning worked well. The clean bathroom had plenty of towels and hygiene products. Views are limited which is not surprising in a central city location.
Restaurant lacked atmosphere and had views over waste land and tower blocks but food was tasty and good value. Alcohol prices were excellent. Breakfast was served plated due to Covid but was OK. Menemen was warm and delicious. A plate of fresh fruit served to the room in the evening was a nice touch.
All the staff were friendly and helpful. This is a good value hotel with excellent service.
If I were to have one complaint it would be the recurrent requests from staff to post a review. This was the only bit that seemed to be trying too hard, otherwise service was natural.
