Rested with family in the hotel from 16 to 23 September.
The issue of a good room was resolved at the reception almost immediately and inexpensively.
Although the hotel was opened in 2006, there were good cracks on the walls of the room. Affects the rapid construction, and possibly poor pouring of the foundation. Already this fact did not cause much optimism and joy. But the rooms were cleaned well. And I was especially pleased with the work of the maids, who created all kinds of patterns from sheets, up to swans. Without a twinge of conscience left them a tip.
The food in the restaurant was not particularly varied. Rice, pasta, potatoes (fries, mashed and stewed) and a local variety of barley. Fish and meat dishes were considered almost a delicacy. And so cutlets from McDonald's hamburgers, etc. Salads are mainly based on cottage cheese. From vegetables and fruits, watermelon, melon (not tasty) and oranges.

I would especially like to note the almost reverent attitude of the waiters to the napkins on the tables in the restaurant. They were laid out only once at the laying of tables. In the future, even if some customers were replaced by others, napkins no longer appeared on the tables. Even if there were napkin holders on the tables, there were never any napkins themselves.
Unlike the hotel restaurant, the beach bar had unlimited napkins. The very same lunch on the beach from lunch in the hotel restaurant is almost the same. And we dined with the family almost all the time there. However, I would like to say a lot of good things to the woman who prepared the guzleme (stuffed flatbread) in the bar on the shore.
Beer is delicious and unlimited. Haven't tried vodka. I don't like experiments. But I was frankly surprised by the fact that cognac was available in a nearby 3-star hotel. And ours, except for whiskey, from which it was even difficult to get drunk, could not please us with anything.
The beach was not sparkling clean. Partly because of our compatriots, and partly because of the lack of cleaners. "Pleased" look holey and broken umbrellas. Apparently, they have not been changed since the opening of the hotel. In order to somehow protect the family from the scorching rays, it was necessary to collect 3 umbrellas in a pile.
I was particularly pleased with the security. She was not on the beach, as such. But the sight of the security guard walking all day around the hotel and around it with his girlfriend caused a special delight. ???
It is difficult to express everything in one word, but what is certain is that it is not worth the money that was paid for it. Savings on everything.
To summarize what we saw - the lack of professional management. And as a result - the lack of a normal comfortable rest.
