Hotel ratings by criteria:
There is no desire to return to Delta by Marriott Bodrum. Too little rest time to spoil it. I do not recommend to people who are accustomed to comfortable hotels and quality rest. It's not 5 stars, that's for sure. And that's why:
Stayed at the Marriott network twice: in Monaco and Amman. This is what was decisive in choosing a hotel in Bodrum. I love Marriott with their hotel scent, premium cosmetics, scented towels and quality rooms. But here in Bodrum from "Marriott" only the name.
Territory: There is no actual territory. A deck upholstered with boards made of some kind of plastic alloy, where the bars are located. Down the elevator is the beach, also on a plastic surface. If you dream of leaving the city to enjoy nature, then you are not here at all.
Beach: there is a bulk sandy one for children and a deck with stairs for adults. if you overslept and came at 10 o'clock, there may no longer be free sunbeds. Everything is covered with towels.

Rooms: We took the standard with a view of the garden. In addition to the garden, the sea was also visible. Thanks! Everything is very modest and concise. But the bathroom upset me the most: at night it smelled terribly badly of sewerage, a dirty countertop with a washbasin. Dirty plums of water (added a photo). The most unpleasant thing is the huge cockroaches that crawl out of open drains at night.
For some reason, cosmetics here are not the same as in previous Marriotts, not Acca Kappa, but cheap local spills and strange consistency. I always believed that there should be one standard in a hotel chain. In general, take everything.
Life hack: if your mattress is squashed, just turn it over to the other side, it will be more comfortable.
Food: I'm used to simple and healthy food, so everything suited me, there were always steamed and fresh vegetables. Upset meager fish menu. Before I booked, I read reviews that there was sea bass, apparently, they ate everything by my arrival)) . Of the fish, there were pieces of fried mackerel, some local boiled fish, and, as a delicacy, a couple of times in 10 days the cook gave portioned, pinch, salmon)).
Desserts, pasta, chicken, french fries, that's enough.
The hotel is about 50% Russian, 30% - Turks, 20 - Ukrainians, Poles.
Bar: 5 cocktails, wine, whiskey, gin, Baileys, etc. , it's all there.
Entertainment: mini-disco every evening, often live music and an adult disco, where Leps will be put on your cake like a cherry on a cake.
What terribly infuriated was the BRACELETS. Guys, 21st century!! ! What bracelets??!! ! Why are they not available in other hotels? In the same place, this issue was somehow resolved))) As a result, after a couple of days I took it off and went without.
A huge plus is the sea. Salty and clean, just floating in the spa)).
And finally: Departure was at 7 pm. We asked to extend the room for money, we were refused. They offered to transfer to economy, we agreed. At the same time, the economy for 5 hours of stay cost 60 euros. We paid the same amount in Kyiv for 2 days in the standard.
This was of course a big mistake. They settled in some kind of closet under the stairs, behind the fire exit. No windows, of course. But for some reason, a two-room. There was an impression that this was a room for the attendants, who stayed overnight, as there were large jars of shampoos in the shower. It was unpleasant.
