We stayed at the hotel in August this year. At 10 am we were already at the hotel. Check-in at 14-00. We were fed breakfast and asked to wait. They settled us exactly at 14-00, neither earlier nor later. Sea view room. Clean, bright, in general, everything is not bad. The hotel area is small and clean. The beach is terrible. Entry into the sea on the cobblestones. The beach itself is very small. We swam at the nearby beach. Here the entrance is almost sand. There were always enough sunbeds, although there were cases when a towel was put on the sunbed in the morning and came to lunch. It didn’t really bother me, I shifted the towels. Towels were given out by tokens, it was very annoying, because by the evening, when the towels were handed over, these tokens were not left. Therefore, every time I had to go to the reception in the morning and ask for a new token . . Regarding food: the cuisine is varied, everything is very tasty. Two or three types of meat, fish. True, there is a lot of batter on the fish, but it can be removed. Vegetables and fruits were always in abundance. Very tasty pastries. True, it is a pity that it was always served in the evening. Drinks and alcohol are rubbish. And one more thing: the hotel is definitely not for families with children. No animation, no entertainment. It is good to relax here with older children, because. The hotel is located in the center of Bodrum. We walked every evening when the heat subsided a little. The city is similar in architecture to Greece, but this is not surprising, because. previously it was a Greek city. There are very few Russians in the hotel, there are no Russian-speaking staff. Regarding the staff, everyone is smiling, helpful, but there was one nasty bartender who periodically tried to tease somehow. It was extremely unpleasant. They made a remark to the manager, after that the bartender was removed. Excursions we bought ourselves not through a travel agency. We went to a large entertainment center on our own. I was pleasantly surprised by the prices for knitwear and shoes made in Turkey. And they rode on a boat through the bays. Very picturesque. I bought a spa treatment at the spa. I did not like. The hotel has a good gym and swimming pool.
In general, I recommend the hotel.
