Pros +
- Very near the old bazaar. Old building(1880 I think)so do be prepared for some steep steps. Lovely breakfast, usual Turkish fare plus fried puffy bread or omelette. Very helpful owner.
- This is different kind of hotel comparing to most of other hotels we have been to. It is an old Ottoman style, traditional house, converted to the hotel. We felt that provision of required services, while preserving authentic facility was done very well, and we felt really nice. The staff is friendly and the breakfast is great.
- Very nice and helpful owner. Great location. Hotel with lots of character
Cons -
- Lights in the room could have been slightly better
- Same standard and same price as any other identical type of guesthouse in Safranbolu but surprisingly no breakfast, it's a shocking extra 10€ for a very basic Turkish breakfast. I live in Istanbul so I'm often in Safranbolu for weekend breaks. Wouldn't recommend it
- Due to the nature of the traditional building, sound-proofing is somewhat lacking. At times, it could be a bit noisy, especially with sounds from the road. However, this is a minor inconvenience considering the overall charm and experience the hotel offers.

It's basic establishment in a large old Otoman building, with only about 6 rooms. Seems to be a family run hotel, with extremly friendly and helpful staff.Great value for your money, very nice breakfast.
Historical building, full of character, quirks and charm. Very clean, excellent shower, comfy bed, great old town location.

The host was kind and courteous. Requests are answered quickly. They always ask you what you need. The most important thing is the good cleanliness of the place. The hotel is very close to transportation, cafes and restaurants.
Mustafa the receptionist is very helpful and nice to us
We were asked to take off our shoes before we entered our rooms . They said it is the rules
The guesthouse is strategically located in the old town. The tranditial house is nice. The host and his family is very helpful and friendly. The breakfast is excellent. It is value of your money. The room that we booked is big and comfortable too.
The staff are very friendly and helpful, helped us to park our car every time we come back.The breakfast is very good.
Great place with great helpful staff.Parking is on the street, but not a problem.Handy for local bars and restaurants (with alcohol) which can be a struggle in this area.Old town right on the doorstep, new town about an hour leisurely hilly walk away.
Very nice little building. Room 4 was beautifully decorated. Room 5 was less beautiful, though. Great staff. breakfast was good.
The curtain was white and thin so get your eye mask ready when sleep. The bathroom was a bit outdated but you can’t be picky considering the price.
Beautifull Room. Location. Breakfast. Kindness of owners. Great price.
Wi fi not the best
The room was so beautifully decorated and so clean, plus the view was amazing.
Stunning Ottoman building, very close to the centre of town. The receptionist was very helpful, especially appreciated his help carrying my case up the stairs! Breakfast was simple but nice.
Good breakfast, close to the Old Bazaar
Living upstairs, it's hard to carry luggage upstairs
The room actually looks better than I saw on photos and expected.Very good location.Friendly owner.Parking for 2 cars (could be difficult to find parking in the center of Safranbolu).
Nothing to mention.
This hotel was one of the most unique and special experiences I ever had with accommodating in many different countries. There was a feelling of staying at your grandma's country house - such a warm, easy-going and welcoming treatment we got from the owners...It was extremely clean, the breakfast was amazing and the location too! I don't know much about other hotels in Safranbolu, but it seems to me it could be the best option :) I highly recommend this place and don't hesitate to book a room here if you are looking for a home feeling and great welcome :)
Everything was great and amazing!
The place is welcoming and heartwarming. It was extremely beautiful, authentic, close to everything, an easy to reach parking which is import in this town, and the host was simply amazing he elevated the whole experience.Also amazing breakfast everyday.
