August 2008. For 7 days.
In general, I was satisfied with my stay at this hotel. The price/quality ratio is quite ok.
Of the minuses
The fattest is the beach. Rather, the beach itself is normal, but the entrance to the sea is a bunch of stones, on which it is simply dangerous to enter the sea, you can screw up. The Turks cleared a small area opposite the underpass, where there are small pebbles and where you can enter and exit normally, but the area is literally 5-7 meters wide. There is simply no place to stand in the sea, it is slippery on the stones. Incl. on these 5-7 meters there is almost always a huge bunch of people. But if you know how to swim, then you can just go to this place, sail away and swim away from the coast.
Minor cons.
1. During a meal, sometimes there are not enough chalices / spoons / forks, you have to wait for them.
2. Of fruits, only watermelons. The watermelon cutter (an elderly one, sometimes young people are put there) constantly hints at baksheesh : ).

3. The menu is not the richest, but we never left hungry. Again - for a trio the food is very good.
4. Once there was no hot water for half a day, although cold water was normal.
5. Sun loungers by the pool should be borrowed at 7 o'clock, later they are all taken. Many people just leave towels there and come at 10 o'clock. Even though the sign by the pool says it's not allowed.
6. There are only 10 TV channels, two are Russian, two are German, the rest are Turkish.
7. There is no refrigerator. In our room there was a drip on the ceiling and there was no oilcloth in the shower.
8. On the beach by the sea, frenzied Turks start collecting umbrellas as early as 6 pm. In a fit of industriousness, they also begin to level all the sun loungers with cries of "Design Design". At half past six or seven they start picking up the mattresses.
Well, it seems like all of the minuses.
Pros.
1. Nice swimming pool. Of course, there are a lot of people, but to lie down, soak up is a great place. Sun loungers, umbrellas, tables - everything is ok. From 7 to 9 you can swim well. Then the kids come running : ). Fortunately, at 10 they turn on slides for children (there are two of them), and there are fewer people in the pool. Baby pool for toddlers (40 cm)
2. The sea is very close, 150 meters. The beach - mattresses, umbrellas, sun loungers, tapchans - all for free. On the beach there is a mini bar with free drinks such as yupi + drinking water. The same is true in the hotel itself.
3. Next to the hotel - the city, ie. right behind the hotel - there is where to walk. Prices are normal, Turkish delight and other souvenirs are cheaper to buy there than on excursions and the so-called sweet factory near Antalya, where everyone is taken. Not all are traded, but many are.
4. The room is normal, there is air conditioning (and this is very important in that climate) and it works well. BALCONY!! ! Table, chairs, clothesline (also not unimportant). The elevator is working. Bed, TV, wardrobe, mirror - everything is fine...

5. Bar, Pepsi / Cola / Sprite + local alcoholic drinks are poured there for free. Next to vending machines with drinks, UPI + water + coffee vending machines + tea - all this works essentially around the clock (except for the bar itself).
In general, everything is fine. The beach is accessible through an underground passage. Tourists there are mostly Russian-speaking, there are Turks, there are very few Germans. The green zone is quite small, but again, it's a three and, it seems to me, an honest three for a solid four. They give a lunch package, the alarm clock works, there is a phone in the room. When they put the bracelet on their hand, make sure that it hangs, otherwise it will be annoying. There is beach volleyball, but mostly Turks are cut there, because. our lazy ones. There are two billiard tables - for money, one tennis table - for free. There are three computers - with the Internet (3 bucks per hour), 3 or 4 playing computers for children. Like everything I remember.
