Ibis Styles Istanbul Kurtkoy
Was mislead by reception staff. Rang and asked if they had an airport pick up service. Was told the cost would be 5000 lira from Istanbul Airport, but was charged 6000 when I got to the hotel. Apparently they forgot to mention the extra “ tax”. Which I found to be very un genuine.

Emirtimes Hotel & Spa Tuzla
The spa was too busy. They did not do the service although they charged. They also overcharged me for everything because I am a woman and a foreigner. Usual Istanbul.
