Central Anatolia
Rest up for the night where traders once bunked down in town in the 15th-century İsmail Bey Hanı, one block behind the Nasrullah Meydanı, slap in the centre of town. Small but comfortable rooms, set around a large courtyard, are reached through very short doors (mind your head) and come with tiny windows and modern bathrooms.
Note that sometimes the central courtyard is used for evening events so you may want to check nothing is planned during your stay before you book.
