The hotel is over 100 km from the airport and the drive takes about 1 hour 40 minutes. We arrived around 12:00 so we had time to have lunch. Check-in after 14.00. There is no left-luggage office at the reception and things are asked to be left right in the corridor, motivating that they have surveillance cameras. They didn't give us any money, so they gave us a room in the farthest block on the top floor. The room is old, the air conditioner practically did not cool, there was not one curtain on the windows. There is a hair dryer in the bathroom, but you need to bring your own shampoo. There is something indistinct like liquid soap. Went several times to change rooms. Of course, they wanted to give money, but it didn’t even come to that. They immediately said something like "come tomorrow" in the best traditions of domestic housing departments. As a result, we scored and were left with a nose, or rather with a number.
The food is varied only at first glance and very tight with meat. For lunch, potatoes, pasta, rice, potatoes, pasta, rice. It's the same for dinner. In the morning, boiled eggs and eggs in the form of an omelet. Sometimes pancakes or toasts were fried with the same egg. All this alternated and by the end of the rest it was no longer possible to eat. There is sausage - it's more expensive for yourself. There are 2 types of them, one type of chicken, the other doctor's - such a poisonous pink color. Cutlets are not even meat, some kind of soy mixture. The only thing is that they gave the chicken, but also not often. Oh yes, there was barbecue. It was from chicken. They gave one piece in hand and for this it was necessary to stand in line. There was a fried fish similar to mackerel, but called differently. The main thing here is to snatch a good piece, because they fry it whole and you can take your head and tail, where there is nothing special to eat. A bunch of different salads: tomatoes with cucumbers, tomatoes with cucumbers and greens, just greens. Lots of pickled peppers, green tomatoes, cabbage, olives. There is a lot of this goodness.
The bar near the beach baked tortillas, which were pretty much nothing. Turkish pizza was - it's pita stuffed with half-eaten salads. You can eat a couple of times. Well, hamburgers with soy patty.

Alcohol. It has already been written about many times, but I will add a little. Beer is almost non-alcoholic, with beer in Turkey in general strained. Everywhere one Ephesus. White wine is more or less, red is very sour, but if you throw sugar in it, you can drink it. I didn’t drink vodka, but according to reviews it’s 20 degrees. More or less I liked gin and tonic or sprite. But it's better to buy normal booze in duty-free, which I did.
Animation. The Turkish animators are quite artistic, which cannot be said about the two girls from the team. They're in their first year and it shows. At the end of our holiday (11 days), their numbers began to repeat. In general, the animation is boring with the same music every evening. They also offer to buy a $10 CD with this music from them. No, thanks, and listen to it at home too.
In general, the hotel itself is suitable for families or the older generation. There is nothing for young people to do.
