Acceptable but with issues

turkish fooddecent rate
The turkish food in the restaurant was good (especially the hand washing performance!).
It seemed like I was treated as an outsider. I had been staying at the hotel since October 5th, BUT that did not matter. THE problem was that I was wanting to extend.

The service was very fast with requests for rooms. the cleanliness was good, especially after speaking with the management. They ensured everything was well-cleaned. they kept asking if i needed anything else, showing that they wanted me to be at ease.
the gym is small for a 5-star hotel, and lacks enough equipment.
