The Akay is a real find - a low key, incredibly relaxing, exceedingly friendly, family run pension thanks to the brilliant management of the place by owners Kazim, Aisha and their family. A perfect place to de-stress and unwind and you are looked after well the minute you arrive to the moment you leave. As others have said the home... more
