Staying at the Chez Rumi and visiting Şirinçe was an incredibly pleasant and memorable experience.
It was different from a typical hotel experience. The hosts were so warm, hospitable, and easy-going that we felt like guests at a good friend's or relative's home. The unit was spacious and clean despite the old building. The bathroom could use some renovation but it was overall decent.
The location is perfect, at the heart of the town next to the historic bazaar with a few parking lots at a walking distance away. It felt super safe even at the latest hours. There are lots of clothing and souvenir shops, restaurants and coffee shops, ice cream shops, and wine shops with underground cellars, all at a convenient walking distance.
The hotel's restaurant was great, too. The breakfast was just perfect and the other meals were easily the best food among the ones we tried in town. The open-kitchen concept made the experience more special, as we could wine and dine with the owners family and staff as they cooked delicious food for us in front of our eyes with organic ingredients from their own farm and village. We were able to make and self-serve tea as if it's our own place, chitchat with the owners over food or drinks, and watch our children play together. Our toddler had a lot of fun playing with their kid, who was also kind, caring, and sharing, e.g., she let him pet her kitten and parrot and brought him toys to play in the yard.
I would strongly recommend it!
