Hotel Abro Necatibey
Great stay in central Ankara. Easy to access with Bus 442 from the airport. I booked the budget room, so there were no windows but it was absolutely fine for sleeping.

ROX Hotel Ankara
This hotel is a dump. The pictures shown on Expedia are photoshopped. The entire hotel room was filthy. Stayed one night and I think we even got bit by bedbugs. Disgusting.
