You couldn’t get any closer than this to the heart of Bodrum. The famed Main Alley is right on your doorstep, thronged hip-to-tanned-hip till 5 in the morning. The sea is in the back, the waves spraying first-floor windows on windy days (we saw someone casting a fish line from the breakfast table).
