Before going to this hotel, we carefully studied all the reviews about it, but we could not even imagine how bad everything was. They have never been meticulous about hotels and did not consider the shortcomings through a magnifying glass, but if you don’t want to spoil your vacation, it’s better to look for another hotel. Bodrum is worth a visit, and the impression of it should not be spoiled by the hotel.
Suitable for: if you are going to Turkey for the first time; if you have previously only stayed in 3* (since many 4* are better than this hotel); if you know how to swim well (the entrance to the sea is only from the pier).
The hotel is located in a beautiful bay, nature and the sea are simply amazing with its magnificence. This is the only positive aspect of the rest in this hotel.
The management of the hotel is completely Turkish, which negatively affects the service. Save on staff and as a result - dirt in the dining room and rooms.
But everything is in order.

When checking into a hotel, be sure to pay attention to the room number, as Russians and Ukrainians are treated negatively, to put it mildly, rooms usually give out the worst (starting with 6). Room numbering in the hotel is four-digit; pay special attention only to the first digit:
- starts with 1. . . , 2. . . , 3. . . - this is a "bungalow". Two-, three-storey houses with one or two rooms. Decent rooms (mostly with a beautiful view of the sea), but they are cleaned poorly, there is practically no change of beds and towels. A little trick of the staff: fold used towels very carefully so that you get the impression of replacing them : )
- starts with 4. . . and 5. . . are numbers in the main building. Our brother has nothing to count on them, since they mainly settle Turks and foreigners. And if they do, then with a view of the opposite building. The rooms are spacious and correspond to typical hotel rooms.
- start at 62 . . - these are the numbers in which our people are settled. The rooms are located under the pool so they are always very damp and hot. In addition, the front part of the room - this glass is closed with curtains with holes, i. e. everyone who is interested will be able to watch you : ), and another minus is the nearby disco and games room with all the ensuing consequences. But there is one small plus - these rooms are closest to the sea : )
Almost our entire group was accommodated in these rooms (other tourists talked about the same), and almost everyone returned from them after 5 minutes. at the reception with requests and demands for replacement. According to the guides: "we are tired of fighting with the staff of this hotel in relation to our tourists. "
Regarding the dining room (in other words it can not be called) is generally a separate conversation. Reminds more of a Soviet-era canteen than a typical Turkish hotel restaurant. Dirt, lack of cutlery and constant queues are the normal state of this establishment, but what can you expect if there are only a few waiters and they work 16 hours a day. If you think that drinks will be brought to you like in a regular 5 * hotel, forget it. Variety of food - 0.

It is also better not to go to a la carte restaurants. First of all, foreigners are served there, and you can sit for an hour waiting for an order. Usually people come back to eat at the main restaurant : )
After talking with foreigners, we heard similar remarks. So it's up to you to decide whether or not to go to this hotel, spoil or not your attitude towards Turkey and holidays in this country.
