ужас,летящий на крыльях ночи horror flying on the wings of the night

I write right away - impressions for 2007.
I didn’t intend to write a review for this hotel at all, but there’s nothing to do - it’s time and again I saw tours to this hotel - this is 2.
I want to say that I literally just looked at the prices for Turkish 4s through the Tez tour and this hotel is not the cheapest, as many people write (if you look like this in Moscow time, it is the 10th cheapest, and cheaper you can go to quite normal hotels)

it’s not at all clear to me why tour operators are still working with him... since last year I have been working in a tour company and last year I personally dissuaded 2 couples from going there. the first said that they had chosen a tour based on pictures and price. they were surprised when they were told that Sugar Beach was in the photo, and Ares was behind it. thank god we didn't go. the second flew into the tour agency with burning eyes, declaring that they want to go to Ares, their friends advised them, they say, a hotel near discos, in the very center of Alanya, etc. - God forbid I have such friends.
And now actually about the hotel. I went to Turkey with two friends for the first time and at that time did not know at all what review sites were. so I only saw the hotel in pictures. having come to the Last minute travel agency, they said that we wanted to go to Ares, having previously seen on the site how much it costs, dates of arrival, etc. flew from Karia tour. I had no experience in choosing a hotel, so I relied on a text message from a girlfriend who went to Ares with a guy the day before our trip to a tour company. in the agency, we must give them their due, they tried to dissuade us by offering other 4s for about the same amount and saying that you can meet with friends in Mahmutlar itself and in Alanya. but no!! ! We're damn sheep - only Ares and that's it! (SMS was like this: hello. everything is super. we arrived well. the hotel is cool. they feed for slaughter. the sea is warm, the beach is good and sunbeds and umbrellas and mattresses, everything is there. the territory is large, a lot of greenery, a large pool. everything is super. we are waiting for you ) I still think, knowing my Oksana - how much did you have to drink in duty free to write such a thing)
we drove for a long time to the hotel, we were wondering, for the first time. here we are not sure where they bring us (even at the registration we met two cute grandmothers, a guy with a girl from Belarus and 2 guys, so there were a lot of us) - everyone started to resent that it was not Ares, the Turks were not at a loss - they made a circle around the microdistrict and drove in with embankment. when they saw a familiar building (Sugar Beach), they naturally relaxed and began to crawl towards the exit.
settlement. we were brought to the middle of breakfast. a friend put $ 15 in her passport and we were immediately given the keys to the room (all of us sat on our suitcases for up to 2 hours). tolerable number. everything worked. 3 beds. the balcony - Turkish builders view - that was the view. on the other hand, the rooms had a view of the construction site and the garbage near it. if you bend over the railing you could see the mountains and 30cm of the sea.

food. fed normally. fruits were green (I generally can live on watermelons for months, because I love them very much), vegetables, side dishes, sweets. there was little meat. I vaguely remember, but like chicken and fish, and even then not always. in 2007 we were lucky the cook was a good one - an old one, he was always present at all meals. drinks - yupi, wine that is impossible to drink, beer and crayfish (thanks to duty free - we bought what we wanted there, as well as to the guys who took vodka from home) there was also a coffee machine in which no coffee was found, but the canoe was delicious (I'm allergic to coffee, but I drank nothing in Ares. Hence the conclusions)
now the territory - it is not !! ! in general. swimming pool and building. from the restaurant you can go out onto the terrace and rest against the Sugar Beach hill, look at their animation (it was better than ours) and cry. The entrance to the terrace is only through the restaurant and when it is closed, you will not get there. when in the dining room you hear and smell the beginning of a meal - the doors of the rooms open just to the restaurant and I had a strange feeling all the time that someone might spit from above or something like that.
the pool is tolerable. but - there are few sunbeds and you can sunbathe there in the morning. then there is shadow and wind. booth for the animation team generally killed. as well as music - all days from morning to evening hits of the 90s. "My Sun" by the DEMO group, "My Bunny" from Hands UP enjoyed particular success. I don’t know where they got this music, but I didn’t want to be in the pool area.
beach. difficult to write without mats. to get there you need to get out of the hotel, walk 70 meters through the construction site (already completed, now there are apartments), turn right and walk 150 meters along a beautiful alley. further or run across the road (which we did) or go into the underpass - there is a stink and it is constantly flooded. the beach itself hug and cry. mattresses are cellophane sugar bags. umbrellas are broken and dirty. There is no convenient entrance to the water at the hotel. we went a little to the left from the wild beach. chaos on the beach, the bar is paid. "Fedya" constantly walks and offers a bath, peeling, massage. it's hard to get off.

animation. back in 2007 I didn’t know what animation was, or rather I didn’t know what Turkish animation was... animator Bobo (calls himself Boris) is a rare moron. his wife is also in the animation team, but this does not prevent him from pestering everyone. the animation itself resembles the performance of children's amateur performances of the 5th grade in front of their parents. although there was a skin show and a miss hotel (oh my god). no one offered us to go to the disco, although in other reviews for 2007 I read that they took us. we traveled by ourselves. and in general we tried to spend less time in the hotel. nearby is Klas 4 * and First Klas 5 * - they have a cool disco. everyone is allowed. every day foam party.
of the adequate people was the restaurant manager, I don’t remember his name - quiet, calm and constantly apologizing, it was more or less normal at the reception.
the main thing. Arriving in Ares, you can be accommodated across the road, in a building without a star rating, motivated by the fact that there are no places in the hotel.
further - the owner of the hotel - schmyr, lives in the hotel, his son is a drug addict too.
of all with whom we spoke to the hotel, only one mother and daughter (18 years old) had no complaints. daughter won the Miss Ares contest, met (slept) with the son of the owner. mother, in turn, was taken to the city for free, a hookah for animation for free, she drank alcohol far from beer and crayfish. I think it's clear here.
you can endure the hotel only by loading yourself with excursions.
who do I advise? - Definitely drug addicts. you can ask directly at the reception to call the owner's son and tell him what you need - you will be satisfied with your vacation.
Also, people who consider themselves big sinners can go to the hotel (only if the commandment "Thou shalt not kill" is honored by you). leaving home from this purgatory you will feel holy.
karma can also be cleaned there, convincing yourself that the spiritual is higher than the physical (but only if you don’t use swear words, although it’s difficult without them in a hotel).
