    Perfect place just minutes walking distance from busy street with all the bars and restaurants. Waking up here and having breakfast with this view is beautiful. Food was amazing, would definitely recommend also going for their dinner. Friendly and caring family that helped us with everything we needed. Would stay here again!

    We enjoyed our stay at Dream Nest, the family are so welcoming and kind. The breakfast was something different every day for the 3 mornings and the view was amazing. Great communication, they arranged us getting dropped off at the train station once we left and also offered us a laundry service. They even shared their birthday cake with us, truly amazing family.

    We had an amazing experience! We were welcomed in an incredible and heartwarming way after a long train ride. The owners are wonderful, kind, generous, and helpful with anything we needed. The room is well-equipped, with adapters, hot water, a large bed, functional restrooms, and a nice tea and coffee corner. The breakfast is amazing and varied, with something different and delicious every morning. The view from the room is breathtaking. Without a doubt, this place made our experience unforgettable. Thank you so much for everything!!!

    There is a road down the hill. It’s a bit noisy in day time but it didn’t bother me.

    Dream Nest has a very good location close to the city center but outside of the noisy area. Hosts are very welcoming and helpful with anything you need. They are also very discreet and give you a space for your privacy. Comfortable room and bed, delicious and huge breakfast and if you wish dinner as well. I recommend to try a home made food, cooked with passion and love.

    It may be cleaner. Also there is no shampo.

    We firstly liked breakfast. It was delicious. The stay Home is closed to city center as walking. You may go only 5 minutes to city center. İnternet connection is well too. Owners are very soft and kind.

    Not by any means anything to do with the property just the noise from. The road was somewhat noisy. But can’t be helped.

    Beautiful setting. Super comfy bed and fresh linen. Hosts were super attentive and couldn’t be more welcoming & helpful. Lovely breakfast and welcome tea and biscuits. Super cute

    You hear the busy street

    A real home-stay: I felt safe, warm-heartedly welcome, nourished by endless cups of tea and an abundant breakfast - just the right place to flee the for-me-too-busy-Ella.

    I’m going to leave an honest review because if there was one I wouldn’t choose this property. But all the reviews are 8 - 10 out of 10 I just don’t get it. 1. Strong chemical smell from the restroom. When we checked in it was so bad I could feel it in my mouth . So I had to open all the doors to fight it. It faded only on the second day but not completely. 2. Room is so small, that you basically sleep your head next to the restroom door - and smell the smell. 3. Mattress is so hard and you can feel its springs. To be honest from my almost 100 countries where I traveled and countless accommodations where I stayed - it is the second worst mattress I could remember. 4. Cleanliness could be improved (dusty shelves and but for these shelves there isn’t much furniture to put your clothes on. 5. Water heater’s original cord isolation was damaged and now it’s isolated from the water and bathroom’s humidity just by electrical tape 6. Scooter host has for rent is very old and it kept stalling on the run.

    Host family, beautiful view from the terrace, abundant and tasty breakfast, location.
