We stayed at this hotel for a week at the beginning of September. In terms of money, we got $ 550 for two. I'll start in order.
ACCOMMODATION:
We arrived in Bodrum early in the morning at about 6:00, we were already at the hotel in 30 minutes, it was not far from the airport. We arrived, we were put on bracelets and we were immediately settled, that is, we did not wait until 14-00, did not pay extra, apparently we were just lucky that there were free rooms.
The hotel area is large and beautiful, everywhere greenery, palm trees and flowers.
There are 2 bars, 2 swimming pools for adults, 2 in my opinion for children + slide. There are sun loungers and umbrellas (all free).
NUMBERS:

In the first room where they tried to settle us, it stank of dampness, the shower was broken, which made me very upset. I went to the reception and asked to change the room, which they did. The second was already not so sad, in the end we stayed there. There is almost no soundproofing in the rooms, all conversations, slamming the door - everything will be heard. The bed was uncomfortable, put 2 mattresses and just put them together. The rooms could do with a refurbishment. On a note, we lived in the lower buildings, those that are not far from the pool. There was a hair dryer, there was no soap, it was only in dispensers, but it didn’t last long, there was also shampoo, it’s good that I took all my own.
CLEANING:
When we checked into the room, it felt like it hadn't been cleaned at all before. The bed was not changed for all 7 days, the towels were the same, we were given 2 towels for 2! This is generally complete nonsense... the floors were washed only 1 time, the garbage was also thrown out 1 time. It was not clear to respond to requests to do something, whether they simply did not understand them, or whether it was in their order of things.
NUTRITION:
The food is good, but monotonous. There was always chicken, fish, beef, rice, a couple of times there were potatoes, pasta, bulgur. With fruits watermelons and plums. There were enough sweets. At lunch, snacks in the form of burgers with potatoes or something similar to semi-finished meat (I still didn’t understand what it was). You won't go hungry, but the choice is primitive. I don’t know if this is due to quarantine, or if the concept is like that, but in some triplets there was more choice. There were queues in the evening, so you have to come early, although there was enough food for everyone.
THE DRINKS:
With alcohol were gin, wine, vodka and beer. Beer is the best. Cocktails were weak and very diluted. Water upon check-in is given in the amount of one bottle, then you go and ask to be filled with it in a bottle. There was also Fanta, Sprite and Cola.
ANIMATION:
There is animation, but very primitive, some competitions were held a couple of times with dancing and other things, but we didn’t see anything special for all the time) There were no discotheques.
SERVICE, STAFF:
80% of the inhabitants are Turks. There were also Ukrainians, Russians, Germans and British. There is simply no service as such, all the time you need to ask the staff for something if you need something. And the downside is that they are nothing plainly in English. do not understand, that is, it is very difficult to conduct a dialogue . .
THE INTERNET:

Wi-fi is very weak, at first they tried to catch it in the lobby, but then it was completely impossible to find it. It doesn't exist in the rooms at all. We bought a Turkish SIM card, everything cost about $30.
SEA BEACH:
The sea is gorgeous, clean, warm, I thought it would be colder, but we were comfortable. From the hotel there is a shuttle bus to the beach at 11-00, return after 14-00, but we did not go there. We walked down to the beaches. Walk 5-7 minutes. There is a public beach, but it is not very good, but there are private ones, you just need to take something from the menu (coffee, tea, beer) and you can sunbathe as much as you want. There are sun loungers, mattresses and umbrellas. I advise you to go there)
Bodrum itself is beautiful, the hotel is not in the center, but in the Gumbet area, but you can get to the center by minibuses, the cost is 3 lira per person, it takes 10-15 minutes to go. In the center you can buy anything you want. There are many clubs, cafes, restaurants in Gumbet itself, so the choice is large.
In general, a three-star hotel. No more desire to go there again - does not arise. )
