The hotel is ideal for families with children, and in general for a quiet holiday.
The location is good - 10 minutes from the airport. True, it takes about 30 minutes to get to the city. So if you have plans for daily walks around Baku, you should choose another hotel.
During our stay, the hotel was practically empty, although this year it stands at a stop until mid-September.
The building itself reminds me of a restored boarding house in the Crimea. Everything in the hotel is new, clean, everything works properly. Wifi is free throughout the hotel. True, in the evenings, when there are animation programs, it is difficult to connect due to the large number of users.
The staff is responsive and friendly. Any question or problem is quickly resolved.
2 outdoor pools - in front and behind the hotel. The second pool is constantly in the shade and due to the surroundings of the building on three sides there is a draft and wind. With children, I advise you to use the first pool.

The beach is large, there are a lot of sunbeds, beach towels are issued. The sea is wonderful. It was my first time on the Caspian Sea and I really liked it. Hot, shallow - ideal for aunts and scumbags like me). We had a storm for two days, a red flag hung. It was funny that you can't swim in the knee-deep sea. The waves are low and roll in a plume, it's very beautiful, I've never seen anything like this before.
At the pool bar you can dine, as well as order any drinks. Including alcohol. I must say right away that the bartender does not know how to make cocktails.
As for the food, everything is delicious. Prices are higher than in the city, but if you take into account how much it costs to get to the city to eat, the hotel will be cheaper.
Dinner menu. The choice is large. The wine list is not very large, a lot of things are not available. Difficulties of translation of some dishes smiled (photo).
We ate several times in the old town. Tasty. The cuisine is reminiscent of Georgian, Turkish and Lebanese. That is, the meat is chic, the choice of cheeses is large, and sweets are just delicious. Restaurants in the old town are not expensive, which cannot be said about souvenirs. 5 lira for the worst magnet, you will forgive me, but this is the wrong match. Walking along the embankment, you can see the echo of Eurovision. Everything was preserved there.
Family vacation in Baku is an excellent prospect for Turkish, but alas, there are no charter flights, and a regular flight is expensive. Although there were quite a lot of Russian-speaking vacationers in our hotel.
