"Seketur" is really a neat, good-quality three-ruble note for not very demanding tourists with a particularly good location relative to the beach and the main street (from where it is easy to take a minibus to a large supermarket "Kipa" or Fethiye). As for the especially helpful servants - I don’t agree - they smile stiffly until they figure out that you are an “ex-USSR” (despite your decent English), dull girls at the reception after asking where we (Lithuania / Belarus) are from, even see us to the room they didn’t, they put the key in - that’s all the “polites”, we ourselves had to struggle with luggage in the 2nd building (the one overlooking the sea) and call the reception to explain the principle of connecting electricity (you had to insert the key fob into a special connector near the outlet, then the electricity turns on). But since this is not 5 and a half stars, and it is by no means millionaires who choose such hotels (and the staff knows this), we did not expect special respect. By the way, unlike Kemer and Antalya, local Turks do not bend a bit to tourists, they speak decent English, behave very restrainedly and demand restraint and respect from customers. . I didn’t even manage to bargain at the stalls and mini-markets : (. Speaking of Seketura - from the minuses - poorly washed bed linen and bedspreads (who, when and with what they smeared - the stains weren’t particularly steamy to wash), purely symbolic quality of cleaning (although clean towels were brought in every day and the beds were made their own way, no matter how carefully you made them to your liking. ) The shower had a life of its own - adjusting the water temperature to a comfortable temperature was a matter of pure luck, otherwise - either scream under boiling water or chatter your teeth in a second about a stream of icy water. You won’t wait for extra soap or state-owned shampoo. But in general - a neat standard room with a "foreign" ORT on TV, with a spacious balcony, a view of the sea and a garden, we were satisfied. By the way, the day before departure, we were asked to leave a packed breakfast at the reception - in the morning we were handed tiny rolls of foil, in which we found pieces of a dried loaf without a drop of oil and with skinny lumps of weathered cheese and chemical oh sausages. They ate it out of greed. . . sorry : (. I will not repeat myself, all the disadvantages are more than covered by the proximity to the beach, 2 minutes - and you are splashing in the turquoise warm waves. The beach is decent (of course, there is rubbish thrown around, and there are a lot of cigarette butts in the sand), but you can not rent sunbeds, because. to. coating - a mixture of coarse sand with very small pebbles - comfortable and not a beach towel. Not very crowded, there is always a "place in the sun". The contingent is foreigners (English, Germans, Balts and local Turks), mostly decent mature couples or families with children, a very good choice for those looking for a relaxing romantic getaway. Previous commentators mentioned a hotel bar with loud music on the territory - as if a side business of the owners, yes, music is heard until one in the morning, this should annoy guests with small children, but, oddly enough, we were even pleased with the selection of music - high-quality pop , light retro, soft rock, lyrical ballads, evening gatherings on the balcony were accompanied by pleasant, not annoying musical accompaniment. The food was not bad, we had breakfast - dinner (half board), I will not list the assortment (this has already been written a lot and I will only have to repeat because the menu has not changed much), I will only add that the variety of fruits and herbs may depend on the month. We regularly got a ripe watermelon for dinner every evening (oh, the minke whales were gorged), for breakfast - not a single apple or grape, but in both meals - a sea of ​ ​ u200bu200bfresh herbs (from parsley to all kinds of salad greens and arugula) and fresh vegetables. Desserts are traditional syrup-soaked biscuits, pies or puddings. Drinks at dinner - for a fee. The manager seemed very polite, helpful, talkative and with decent English. No crushing and shoving or "elbow work" near the buffet, everything is decorous and civilized. So "Seketour" can be safely chosen by democratic and not hysterically demanding tourists with basic English, who clearly understand that the hotel will work its 3 stars in good faith, but you will not squeeze more out of it.
