Made us welcome. Great location and local colour. Comfort enough for travellers who want a quiet spot after all day exploring.

Cok tatli insanlarin calistigi sevimli ve lokasyonu mukemmel bir otel

v good

Nice. Cute garden.Very central. Easy to find. Turkish breakfast plate. Comfortable staying. Can stay again if come to Bodrum in future

I would strongly recommend this place if you are looking for a simple, no-frills place. It is small, cozy, very clean and strategically located smack in the center of the partying area and yet very quiet and secluded. The inner garden is great for breakfasts or romantic drink with your half. excellent value for the price.But the best feature of this place, the gem and pearl is the staff of this place. They literally treat you like a part of their family, they do everything to accommodate your every whim.

Cosy nice place for short term accommodation. Nice garden and friendly crew. However, in my room there was no fridge.

Very friendly and helpful staff/family owner

Very friendly staff, great location and very comfortable. The garden is a real plus and wonderful place to have breakfast.

We had a very pleasant stay in this hotel

It was a nice hotel close to everything. It was clean and had a lovely garden. Frendly staff. Minus: I was afraid for mosquito bites when I saw the large opening under the door and all the mosquitos in the room. I slept with AC on the first night to keep the mosquitos away. I didn't get bites, and the mosquitos was gone the next night.

nice place and good breakfast. away from main roads. only issue was mine room was near the breakfast area so and a walkway inside the hotel so you hear a lot of movement or talking in the morning.

The location is good and there is parking. The guy working at the reception (not family member) pretends not to understand anything - he is lazy and does not even volunteer to help with luggage or in any way. The bathroom is tiny - barely any place to shower. The AC was not cooling - upon inspection the filter was so dirty. but even after we cleaned the filter the AC was not working at all. Garden area which looks so nice in the pictures is overgrown and unkempt.Breakfast was minimum. The man who owns the hotel seemed like a nice and friendly person.

Family who run hotel are very friendly, and helped me when I lost my wallet. Within a day of biblical flooding which submerged the garden, they had it cleared and were serving breakfast out there as if nothing had happened. The room was a little basic but clean. The bed was comfortable. The hotel is 5 mins walk from Bodrum bus station and the same from the sea front.

We stayed for a couple of nights in Bodrum. The hotel was not fancy but was fine. The garden was lovely. Easy walk to port etc.

The staff (including the owner) were very rude. When you are travelling and away from home the last people you want to deal with are rude, unfriendly persons especially when you need the hotel as a place of rest. No help was offered with luggage which is completely unconventional.

Very beautiful hotel, staff very friendly and great location for walking.

A small, family-run hotel in a quiet, centrally located street. The room was basic, but clean and comfortable, but the bathroom was a little small. The garden was peaceful and relaxing and the staff were friendly and helpful.

Bare bones hotel but the family were very nice and we had every thing we needed for a sort stay. Homemade breakfast in beautiful garden.

The man at the desk was very abrupt, unfriendly and unhelpful. When we asked for a restaurant recommendation, he hauled out a stack of cards from a restaurant that was clearly for tourists. When we checked out the restaurant, it served spaghetti and pizza....not exactly the Turkish experience we were hoping for (and that we had specifically asked him for). Unlike other experiences in Turkey, we did not feel welcomed at this hotel.

The proprietor met us with a glass of cool water and quickly settled us into our room even though we arrived well before check in. He suggested ways to enjoy Bodrum and recommended restaurants in the area. He and his staff were very gracious.

The name of this hotel means always smiling, which describes perfectly our experience and the excellent treatment by the owners.

We bought the bus tickets 3 days prior to our arrival, but we had never known that almost all the bus tickets had been sold out except the tickets with a bad departure time. We had no choice, and at last, we arrived at the hotel at 5:30am. Hotel Gulec got annoyed about it and doubted why we knew little about the popularity of Bodrum in summer. They couldn't understand a tourist's situations or feelings. From then on, they didn't offer any good service to us. What was worse was that they made our friend wait long outside the reception counter without informing us of his arrival. Besides, our 4-bed room was extremely small. We even had no space for walking, not to say for opening our luggage. Their garden and breakfast were fine. Hotel Gulec can be good for those who will arrive at a normal time and who need a single or double room. It's really bad for people like us who need a 4-bed room and can only arrive very early. On the same day, 2 of our traveling friends stayed at another hotel nearby. Their hotel allowed them to check in immediately and offered them easy breakfast and water for free. Hotel Gulec was the only hotel that we were not satisfied with during our 24- day trip in Turkey. Their cleaning ladies were nice, but the managers were not.

the staff at the hotel Gulec were friendly and helpful. We liked the garden courtyard where breakfast was served. Quiet and green, it is an oasis of coolness perfect for breakfast.

The staff are very friendly and helpful. The hotel is located down a small side street, about a 10 minute walk from the castle in Bodrum. The rooms offer basic comfort and amenities. The hotel has a nice outdoor patio where breakfast and tea are served.

My stay in a single room with two friends was fine, but I may keep looking on a next trip. Location was great and staff were fine. But: Wireless internet was very weak and spotty (FYI, wireless signal strength doesn't depend on the city's internet wiring!), and even mobile internet signals were weak (Vodafone is bad, Turkcell not much better). We suggested they cycle the router but they just blamed it on the city's wiring or something. The room was quite tight (but granted, there were three of us). This was the only place in Turkey with no breakfast buffet, and a rather meager set breakfast plate. They don't give shampoo (!!!) and suggest you buy it locally. No beach towels (unlike other places in Turkey) and they suggest you buy one for 10 lira. There were just two electric outlets in the room, so maybe bring a powerstrip if you have one. The pile of used towels we left in the morning wasn't picked up when the room was cleaned, but we could get more. The shelf in the bathroom was downward slanted and couldn't really hold anything, which is very inconvenient given the overall tight space. The standing shower is sort of designed to get the toilet wet to fit in the space, just don't leave your phone charging in the bathroom as you shower! IMO there are probably places to stay that do better on the amentiies. I mean no shampoo? Really? Staff were nice.
