Before the trip, I read reviews about the hotel, there was a lot of negativity, when we arrived, we prepared for the worst, but we liked it.
More details on the points:
1. Nutrition
The food is excellent for three stars, for breakfast there are several fresh salads, one or two hot ones, vegetables, cheese, eggs, olives, tea, instant coffee. For dinner, hot meat, a side dish and a lot of salads, watermelon. Drinks are paid, tea - 1 lira, water 0.5 liters - 1 lira. The cook is a very pleasant and cheerful person, he lays the evening main course himself, always wishes you a good appetite.
2. Number

The room has good air conditioning (set at 26 degrees), hot water. The room is small and there is no dryer for towels or bacon. There is a TV with two Russian and one English channels. Refrigerator is locked. Use of a refrigerator for a fee. Bringing in food and drinks is prohibited (but not controlled. These are the requirements of their ministry of tourism). They cleaned every day, the light bulb was changed on demand, there is a place for a hair dryer, but there is no hair dryer : -) Towels and linen were not changed during the week.
3. Service
Weakly speak Russian and English, but friendly and friendly. They tried to answer all questions, even if they did not understand what they wanted from them. At the reception you can change dollars and euros for lira (1 dollar 1.55 lira). This is the rate for all stores in the area. The highest rate was seen in banks in the center (1 dollar - 1.63 lira), so the rate in the hotel and in nearby shops is normal.
4. Beach
The beach is common for all stars : -) sun loungers can be taken on the beach. There are many locals, but you don’t need to take a place, there are plenty of places. There are many Turkish women in national bathing suits - wrapped from head to toe. Bagels and corn are carried along the beach (bagel - 1 lira, corn - 3 lira). For delicate feet, I advise you to take slippers - average pebbles plus waves make entry / exit from the water uncomfortable.
5. Museum
The museum in Antalya is located in the old city. The whole museum consists of THREE rooms : -) Entrance costs 2 liras per person. The old city can be completely bypassed in a couple of hours.
6. Migros
Great 3 storey mall. You can skimp and eat, and the children have a place to play. Prices for every taste: jeans from 100 UAH. and until... opens at 10 am and runs until 11 pm. There is a metal detector at the entrance, a lot of police who always help if you need to find something.
7. Tour
Once again I am surprised by the representatives of the Teztur. Nearby they sell the same excursions, but twice cheaper. I know that teztour feeds better on excursions and better buses. But I know this, and the representative of the teztur said all sorts of nasty things about competitors (everything that the representative said was not confirmed either by us or by friends), but did not tell about his merits. And this is not the first time... Somehow it's a shame for the teztur.

Turtles were very pleased, no one said that there would be turtles, and there were plenty of them in the bays : -) I was happy like a child : -)
8. Shopping prices.
Peach - 2.5-3.5 lira
Nectarine - 4.5 lire
Buns / Bagels - 0.7 lira
Water 0.5 - 0.25 - 1 lira
Ayran 1l - 2 lira
Nectar (very tasty) 0.33 - 1.35 lira
expensive chocolates - 1 lira - 7 lira
T-shirt (with the inscription "Turkey") - 10 lire
magnet - 3 lira
5.3 UAH - 1 lira (approximately)
9. Miscellaneous
The navigator helped a lot when we wandered around the city, looking for a better place to eat. There are many buses and they run frequently, the fare is 2.5 lira. They also have very beautiful and modern trams. English is better to know. Turks like it when you use the Turkish language, at least some words.
