Let's start with the transfer. He was extreme. During the trip, the driver demolished (twice! ) the mirrors of parked cars, almost flew under a truck. The girl - the accompanying guide, was shocked herself and said that she was traveling with this driver for the first time. I was especially pleased that upon arrival in Alanya, our driver leaned out the window and asked the way to the hotels from passers-by. Settled quickly, trick with 10 dollars in the passport, apparently also contributed to the safe placement. The room is large, the furniture is tolerable, the balcony is comfortable. . . After reading the reviews about the queues at the hotel restaurant, even before the trip, I was not very surprised by the real state of affairs, but believe me, if you don’t nervously wait for the restaurant to start working, lining up in advance, you can safely eat later, bypassing the troubles with long lines (they will become shorter ), but at the same time, dirty tablecloths are waiting for you. The undoubted advantage of the hotel is the hammam. We went and ordered a hammam on the first day, got great pleasure and the next days of rest went to the sauna and pool for free, used the doctor Fish service (eating fish), also at no extra charge. It is very long to describe all the hammam procedures, but only one foam massage with olive oil is simply incredible. By the way, in the hammam I met a Russian woman who has been living in Turkey for 10 years, she goes to the hammam in this particular hotel, and said that he is the best on the coast. I also did several massage sessions for myself and my son. I can recommend him with full confidence. After the third session, the condition of my back, which was killed by constant sitting at the computer, improved significantly, my son was generally delighted. In general, I highly recommend. Be sure to go to the market (on Tuesday just opposite the back exit of the hotel). Fruit is very cheap. The whole family ate cherries, strawberries, apricots for 2.5 lira (65 rubles). There is also a market on Saturday. but very far. Determining the cons, I’ll immediately say about the pools. They work from 9-19. When I am on vacation, I get up early and really like to take a dip when the whole main crowd is sleeping, I had to go to the sea in the morning, which is really very close, but the lack of access to the pools in the morning and evening did not please me. Our people suffer greatly from the working conditions of the bars. He works, either in a restaurant or at the reception, on the sea in a bar they don’t serve alcohol at all, which makes the sufferers stand in long lines and move from one bar to another. We just bought wine and beer, took it with us to the beach or to our room in the evening, so as not to stand in line and not run around with glasses. At the same time, the drinks in the bar are quite decent, my husband tried strong drinks, and I wine. White dry is quite decent, champagne is a nightmare (sweet, unnatural orange color). Please note that all amenities (cafes, shops, etc. ) are located at the rear exit of the hotel. The cafe cooks amazingly, so when we were tired of the monotonous hotel food, we went to the cafe. The price tag for three people is on average 60-65 lire (1200 rubles), provided that they took lamb and chicken barbecue, grilled kebab, etc. Tea, salad, generally brought for free, and a hot cake was served with food, immediately from tandoor. The most disgusting thing about vacation is a trip to the Promto MK store. At the hotel, their representative constantly processes the public, attracting them with a free transfer. We bought three jackets, they "licked" us very actively, gave us tea. I didn’t keep track of what was put into bags after trying on and carried to the checkout, but in vain. I found a marriage on my jacket, dark spots that could not be wiped off with anything. It is clear that, in the 40-degree heat, the jacket was not worn and was not even taken out of the branded package. Where does the goodwill of these sellers go when claims appear, I don’t know. They ran around the store yelling that these stains cannot be on their products, the manager who dressed me intensively the day before lost his memory and said that he was seeing it for the first time. As a result, the jacket was changed, but they took me to the hotel after I sat in the sun for 1.5 hours (unfortunately, I didn’t even take the money when I went to change the jacket). This time I was not only offered no tea, but not even a glass of water. I bought a fur coat for my eldest daughter later, but in an ordinary store in Mahmutlar, next to the hotel. Feel free to choose and buy. By the way, the prices are much lower and the quality is no worse, the same factory items, only without the hassle and humiliation. The episode with the Promto store was the most negative moment in your vacation, in any case, do not repeat our mistakes and your vacation will be wonderful. Good luck.
