My stay was only for a week

Perfect stay. Hosts lovely, spoke fluent English and very helpful genuine people. Not more than 5 minutes walk from the Dolmus bus station and centre of selcuk, where you can travel to efes in 10 minutes. Tuncay is a little gem on the edge of the old part of town, which is very interesting. locals seem very poor but extremely friendly. Comfy bed very quiet , fresh produce for breakfast and reasonable rates.

Lovely little hotel in the city. Close to many cafes and restaurants. Good place to stay for visiting pamukkale. The owner was very friendly and we had a great chat. Glad it was pet friendly too.

Only cash accepted and small room Still a bit pricey for us (825TL/night - 29€/night)

Very nice location, 5 minutes walk to the center and very close to bus station and train station. Included good breakfast (bread, butter, jam, omelette, salad, olives and coffee). Room with private bathroom, air conditioning and the beds were comfortable with fresh sheets. Wi-Fi was good and there is a nice garden where you can relax

No real criticism, basic amenities but great value for money.

Great location , fantastic host. Great breakfast. Good value for money.

The room was clean and good breakfast.

The room needs investment but this is easier said than done as visitor numbers from Western Europe (once the mainstay of the Pension business) have plummeted.

Very good breakfast on a pleasant terrace. Jelil is a good host with a wry sense of humour. Tuncay Pension is centrally located close to St John Basilica and all bus/dolmuș/taxi services.

No tea and coffee facilities in the room.

Close to ruins and Museum and restaurants. There were storks nesting nearby. Friendly proprietor and good breakfast in a pretty courtyard. Lovely hotel.

Manager's cats are keep harassing us when we were having breakfast. Quilts a bit smelly.

Free park on the street. Beds are comfortable.

Having to ring the doorbell to get in each time, sometimes we were waiting a while

The location was great, staff were helpful, cute kittens and great breakfast (when it eventually arrived!)

Stayed in June 2023

Breakfast was not enough for 5 adults, very poor in comparison to the one we got at another guesthouse in Selcuk the next morning. Got only 4 sets of towels for 5 people, but were too tired to go downstairs and ask for another one. Anyway, it must have been an honest mistake.

Great location, cozy rooms. Hosts were quite friendly, organized a taxi to Ephesus for us and agreed to store our luggage for a day after check-out.

Wifi wasn’t good in the room (but it worked in the communal areas).

A good choice if you need somewhere cheap and simple, in a central location. Big communal areas. Nice staff. Friendly cats..

the guesthouse did not accept payment by card, I have to get the cash from ATM which is not convenient for us. Also the room seems smaller than I booked. I booked the 24 square meter room, but the room I stayed is 16 square meter at most.

the breakfast

Host is very kind. Recommend for the cheap and delight stay in Effes.

Stayed in November 2022

The room lacked furniture, e.g. a cupboard for clothes

Very nice friendly pension

We booked all single beds and one room had one double room. Upper rooms are better.

Location

Stayed in November 2022

The breakfast was great and the manager went out of his way to make us feel welcome. Can definitely recommend if you want something close to the city centre.

Stayed in September 2022

Google maps followed booking.com address which was wrong it should have been #7. So it took us a while to find the right place.

Lovely shared courtyard. Very friendly staff. Best breakfast in Turkey so far.

if I had to find something bad is that the rooftop terrace was a bit of a disappointment

the room was clean and cozy and the patio with the breakfast is really nice and quirky. the owners are also very helpful and speak good English. good value for the money

Put the rate up !

Nice Breakfast

Stayed in September 2022

I wouldn’t say it negatively, rather it would be even better if the room size would be a little spacious. But still the room was good for couple.

The owner and his family were very friendly. The place was very beautiful with wonderfully decorated yard. They provided very good and delicious breakfast. They also helped with travel. Where most of the people there are not well conversant in English, the pension owner was very fluent in English as if you were in a English speaking country which would help other nationals to get good suggestions. Also, the property is located in a good place from where you can take a walk to the Archaeological museum, Basilica of St. John, Byzantine aqueduct and local street market. The place is only a few minutes walk from the Selcuk train and bus station. Furthermore, many restaurants are located nearby.

The inner yard is a bit claustrophobic. Excellent for breakfast, but not to sit and talk or work on a laptop.

Decent but not great breakfast
