I had a lovely 8-night stay at Grand Iska Hotel, enjoying the clean and spacious room with a beautiful view from the seventh floor. The staff, especially Yilmaz at the reception, were incredibly friendly and helpful. The only downside was the lack of variety in breakfast options, which could definitely use some improvements. Overall, I would highly recommend this hotel for its location and comfortable accommodations.
