Hotel for the collective farm

Written: 15 july 2010
Travel time: 22 june — 5 july 2010
Good afternoon everyone. I recently returned from Pineapple and I hasten to share my impressions. I want to say right away that I came to Turkey to relax, and not to look for the shortcomings of the hotel, the rest turned out to be wonderful and in August I'm going to Alanya again, but to a different hotel. So, this is a preface so that sane people still heed my speech, and do not think that I am a grump and a bore. I myself recently bought into the "good" reviews of Pineapple, so I don't want anyone else to throw money away. You can not notice the little things, but, sorry, you still need to respect yourself!
About food: again, I’ll say right away that I am an omnivore, I practically don’t eat meat. But even I had nothing to eat! Meat or soy, or semi-finished products, or dry chicken. Of the fish, there were a couple of times mackerel and herring, I don’t even know what to call this preparation, either steamed, or what....We are not talking about spices and seasonings, of course. Forget sweets. Salads are chopped, precisely chopped, not sliced. Even when you come to the most inexpensive roadside cafe you will not see this, this is for those who write: "what do you want for this money. " Cabbage can be chopped, and not chopped, like firewood and tomatoes cut, and not dumped whole into a basin. If you agree to eat worse than in a roadside cafe for drivers on the highway, then Pineapple will suit you.
The room was practically not cleaned, linen and towels were changed once in 2 weeks. At the same time, everything is tattered and shabby. Whoever does not notice these little things is in Pineapple. For example, I am not a millionaire, I don’t have expensive silk underwear at home, but I don’t sleep on rags either. The soap did not lather and the shower gel did not foam, I see this for the first time, I don’t even know what they pour there. Again, for those who say that I find fault and that I want for such relatively little money: go to any store and buy a piece of the cheapest soap for 7 rubles and, believe me, it will lather! So not only that, for this, sorry, gomno, I also had to run! Just because the cleaners did not put anything, it was necessary to personally approach them and ask! This is just nonsense! I didn’t even see these cleaners in any hotel (I was in 3-4-5 stars), and then I even had to talk....

Animation is also "well done". I didn’t expect anything from them and I don’t need them at all, I have no complaints about their work, I just didn’t see it and didn’t notice it. Again same say only about elementary respect! Not a single smile, but one "how are you", "have a nice rest" or, at worst, "good evening" I did not hear. The animators consider their task to cut down 5 bucks from you and take you to a disco. We did not need it, because. the animators did not take us to the disco where we went (this is the most decent in Alanya, where DJ Smash was recently and Timati will arrive soon). So, realizing that we are cutting a chip and they won’t get anything from us in our direction, they didn’t even look! Although their immediate task is not to take me to a disco, where I myself can get, but to entertain me at the hotel. And how they were interested in our plans for the evening is a separate issue. We are sitting with friends, the animator comes up not with a smile, but with a mine. No hello, no how are you, nothing but: "Dyskoteka are we going? " As soon as we said no, he immediately turned around and left, neither saying goodbye, nor wishing him a pleasant evening... And these are well done guys? People, why are you completely weaned from elementary education and culture? You are being bred like the last suckers, and for this you write that the animation is good!
And here's another about the bar..... where there is not even whiskey! I also see it for the first time, I was in cherverki and once in treshka, everything was there! And how after 23:30 they pour only one glass into their hands? What kind of fright is this? People, think again, those who write a good review about this hotel! After all, I didn’t expect anything supernatural, but elementary, we don’t need to be “bred” like the last idiots!
Beach........ it's just a "song"..... Pioneer camp "Spark" in Adler....Mattresses on deck chairs is something! Again, for those who say that I find fault: I don’t find fault, I just don’t want to lie in shit and on shit, that’s all! The sea is also terrible, the sunset is made of stones, we swam from the pier of the Banana Hotel. It’s possible to go in, if you really try, but I felt sorry for my legs.
The tap water in the room, of course, is salty and probably some kind of untreated. After a few days, my eyes became inflamed, red and incessantly watery. At first, I didn’t understand what was the matter, I thought it was an allergy, I bought pills, drank it, it didn’t go away. Only then I thought that it was because of the water. I began to fill the bottle with clean water and wash it, everything went away right away. So if you have sensitive skin or eyes, then Pineapple is not for you.

In general, there is much more that can be written, but I will sum up, after all, a summary. If you are a normal, simply self-RESPECTING person, not the one who is waiting for a miracle for cheap, but the one who needs just elementary respect, you are clearly not in the right place. Girls, if you want to rock out with the animators for your daily 5 bucks, charm the beach bartenders, look like queens against the backdrop of this garbage dump, if you get wildly delighted with all this, then you are obviously only in Pineapple! Lovers of soy and semi-finished products, chopped salads, you are also here! Girls who are not pampered, who do not care about the condition of their skin, eyes, hair and everything else, then you are also here.
I advise decent people to go to the village of Konakli and go to the Summer Garden disco, it is the best in Alanya. I myself live in Moscow, I managed to visit Moscow fashion clubs and I liked it there (in Summer Garden). Good music, there are decent people, there are, of course, not very good ones. The security guard does not take his eyes off the tourists. If someone said something wrong to you or grabbed something wrong, you can safely come up and tell them, after 3 minutes the boor will be removed. Not far from the center there is a good Cleopatra Beach, you can take a bus with the inscription Cleopatra, and then ask the locals how to get to it (5 minutes from the bus stop). The beach is paid, 4 lira for a deck chair and 4 lira for an umbrella, but it's worth it! There is a very beautiful and awesome sea! If there are those who want to have a tasty meal in a good restaurant, then you are in Harbor (harbor, as it is read in Russian). It is in the center of Alanya, just where the rock is, you need to climb the stairs to the upper street and go left to the end. Tourists do not know about this place and eat in some smelly soots, where they are shouted like: "hey girl, come in beautiful. " You won’t hear this in the Harbor, everything is decent and the service is on a high level, but it’s better to go there on a weekday, on weekends there are sooooo many people, I had to wait a long time for food and the bill. But all the same, the impressions are excellent, this restaurant is located on the very seashore, the view is amazing, the air is fresh and cool.
I say goodbye to everyone, have a good rest!
