    Good location in the center of Selcuk, short drive to the Ephesus site entrance, close to the Archeological Museum. Perfect, friendly lady/owner, good breakfast, rooms for one night OK. We arrived quite late, after 2 AM but it was not a problem for the owner. Thanks. Considering location and a very good price, we recommend this stay to visit Ephesus

    Good location in town centre. The place is clean, has good beds, airco, and good warm showers. The place is run by a very friendly family. One of them speaks basic English, and a younger daughter speaks good Dutch. Breakfast is decent. On saturdays the place is engulfed by a very large market.

    5 storeys up, but then it probably did me good & just what I needed!

    An authentic family-run pension in the heart of Selcuk with three lovely ladies offering a warm welcome & hospitality, a traditional breakfast, and basic but adequate rooms, with balconies. The Saturday market on the doorstep extending way into the square & side streets was a highlight, as were the short walks to the train station to the left and the bus station to the right. All manner of shops, bars, cafes restaurants adjacent, Selcuk is a wonderful little town, and then there's Ephesus a short hop away!

    I'm not a fussy traveller , basically I just need a comfortable room with a private bath room of sorts . This place ticked all the boxes , i did have to carry by suit case up 3 flights of stairs , but hey that's the joys of travel

    The WiFi here is super slow most of the time. I wish they could fix that. Also, the power outlets are in a weird spot, and only one thing can be plugged in at a time because the other outlets are too close.

    The staff was awesome. It was really close to the bus station. Breakfast was good, it was a good way to start the day.

    It would have been nice to use the pool, but I understand the reasons for closing it down late October when there are very few guests.

    Vardar is a family run business and I was made to feel very welcome. Everyone was friendly, polite and very helpful.

    Outdated Listing but Worth Staying if you Know What to Expect
    • Leisure trip
    • Solo traveller
    • Double Room
    • Stayed 4 nights

    I stay so many places, I accept responsibility for not reading some parts of the listing more closely. For example, that the lead pictures of the pool are at another location and not part of the rooftop terrace (empty space). Or, that soap and shampoo toiletries are not provided. Thankfully, I always travel with some and there was hand soap and a left behind bottle of watered down shampoo on the bathroom sink. However, there's no escaping that the listing says they accept credit cards. They don't, and thankfully I read that in a review and came with cash. I booked a double room, says queen bed, but listing photos show two single beds and that's what I got. The mattress was really soft, which I like, but turning over was a challenge in the small bed when sunken into a body divet. In addition, listings say all rooms come with private bathroom but there were two shared bathrooms in the hallway that other rooms were using. And the balcony? A narrow door hidden behind the curtain that opens onto an outer hall you can get to by stepping over edge of the bed. I WOULD STAY HERE AGAIN, but future guests should be aware of what they're getting.

    The room was ok but it took 4 nights for this place to grow on me due to all the surprises from the listing. Other than price, the real bonuses here are the owners and location. The sweetest people run this family-owned business; their homemade peach jam served with breakfast the best I've ever had in my life! Location is also prime with convenient walking distance to train station, bus lot, Selçuk attractions, and a bountiful Saturday Farmers Market that sprawls in all directions from in front of the hotel. Good WiFi, plenty of hot water, and I did appreciate the shower curtain to keep from spraying over the entire bathroom. I would stay here again.

    Despite their booking.com page stating that you can pay with credit card, they only will accept cash. Very frustrating.

    The owners are elderly ladies, therefore everything is slow and you have to wait a lot. The breakfast is included in the price but I never managed to get it. The AC was not working properly in the room though I would have needed it for heating, as it was cold and rainy throughout my stay.

    I had a private room in a fairly good location. It is cheap and comfortable because of the private area you have.

    Very dated. Bed was not so comfortable. Plugs were high up on the wall that I needed to find a way to balance charging my electronics. Could do with a little upgrading

    The location was central for me, however noisey. Staff were friendly and tried to help when understood. Breakfast was typical Turkish, but enjoyable if it differes from your regular routine and sufficient for me.
