Hello everyone who wants to spoil their vacation, welcome, we rested in Turkey in the city of Bodrum from 03.08 to 10.08 at the Litera Royal Marin Hotel 5 * (overall rating of the hotel 2 * with a big interference), through the tour operator Mostravel, after what rest to remember for a long time. Because the organization is at the zero level. We flew on Atlanta Soyuz planes, you probably know these are old shabby IL-86s. It all started with the arrival at the hotel: we were brought to the hotel and introduced to the guide, who left after 5 minutes and appeared a day later. The Turks accommodated us for 4 hours, respectively, everyone was tired and hungry from the road, respectively, they didn’t even feed us.

They settled in rooms, but it was terrible, the rooms just suck, the carpets have not been vacuumed for probably an eternity, all the baseboards around the perimeter of the room are moving away, there are simply none in the corners, the bulbs in the lamps are simply turned out, plumbing in a word is just of the last century, all rusty. The shower cabin does not close, and after washing in the bath sea of ​ ​ water, even after calling their plumbing, nothing has improved. All the furniture is so shabby that it is disgusting to touch it. Curtains and curtains give the impression that they wiped their feet or one place about them, the Turks did not want to change the number even for money, as it turned out later that they would have to change the awl for soap. The TV remotes are glued with adhesive tape, but oddly enough they work, there is also a century-old layer of dust on all the furniture and the TV. Well, I think I won’t talk about insects in the room, of course they were present in large numbers.
The room safe cost 5 euros per day. The cleaning lady did not clean along the way, but only changed the towels, this is her whole task. Terrible hotel. Their elevator worked every other time, well, they almost always had to walk 5 floors up, because they lived in the basement overlooking the concrete wall and under the window there was a garbage dump in the literal sense, and, accordingly, without a balcony, other people had rooms without any windows. On the territory of the hotel you can only sit by the pool, and then if you find a place, as the Germans and Swedes clogged sunbeds in the morning. Moreover, the pool without any slides and relatively small for such a hotel. The drinks in the bar are so diluted that it is impossible to drink. Just like in the dining room, the food pulls for a maximum of 3, this is probably all that this hotel can be proud of, but compared to a real 5, the food just sucks, as we noticed, what we didn’t eat at dinner was all converted into salads, it’s not yet known, Where did the uneaten leftovers go?
One more remark, almost all the plates and cups were not washed, just simply dirty, it discouraged the appetite. There was no animation before our arrival, then it was very lame, in the evening it was very boring. One could only dream of the sea. When the ticket was bought, it was written that the sea was 100 meters away, but in fact it took 5 minutes by bus to reach it, oddly enough it went from the hotel and even for free. Well, the beach just sucks, instead of the promised sand, there are only stones and not 300 meters, 50 meters. There are about 20 sun loungers and everyone is always busy. Since it was boring at the hotel, we went on an excursion from Mostravel, we were told that we would be picked up at 5:30 at 19:00 at the hotel, but we arrived late at 6, and returned at 22, and so every excursion, and if you are late for dinner, then either go to a cafe or sit hungry.
Bodrum does not like Russians, as the locals told us, Bodrum is a resort for Europeans, like Russians rest on the Antalya coast. Conclusion don't fly via Mostravel especially to the Aegean coast.
