Hotel for the eternally young and eternally drunk

Written: 11 may 2010

Who does the author recommend the hotel to?: For recreation with friends, for young people
I believe that the hotel is for young people who are under 25 years old and those who have not been in really decent hotels that correspond to 4 *. When choosing a hotel, my husband and I read the reviews and realized that we were not going to a luxury hotel, but what we saw there turned out to be much worse than what was written in the reviews. I'll start in order: they settled us normally, since it was only the beginning of the season and the rooms were free - they asked for a quiet room - they gave it to us without money! Then the worst began: they came for lunch - during our lunch (30-40 minutes), not a single plate was removed from the neighboring tables and ours, mountains of dirty dishes stood in huge quantities. For dinner, the staff seemed to have arrived and, in this regard, it became better. Nevertheless, it is difficult to call this place a restaurant - this is an ordinary dining room, they didn’t even put tablecloths on the tables for dinner, only napkins, and some didn’t even have that. If you came to the end of breakfast, lunch or dinner, you had to look for clean appliances yourself, and sometimes clean them from the tables. The food was different in that there were eggs for breakfast, otherwise breakfast, lunch and dinner were the same food, which made me sick for 3 days. There are few fruits. Almost no meat, only chicken. Drinks are poured into plastic glasses even when you have lunch or dinner in a "restaurant" - you have to tell the bartender to pour it into a normal glass and he, wrinkling his nose, will do a favor! From alcoholic drinks beer, wine, crayfish, gin and vodka. When you order a cocktail, they immediately give you a menu and force you to buy non-Turkish drinks - this was the first time I encountered this. On the beach bar paid! Room cleaning is also not 4 stars. More or less - Turkish bath and massage. Gym is just one name. The contingent of vacationers is always drunken youth, and what is also terrifying is that many tourists around the age of 40 never seem to dry out (not a pleasant sight).
At best, this hotel can be given 3 stars. Although 6 years ago I was 20 km from Bodrum in a 3 * hotel and everything is much better there. And I conclude that either the Turks are really insolent or Kemer is purely for Russians, who can not be fed and pulled out of them for all the money and we were simply unlucky with the hotel.
I also want to write a few words about Pegas. We terribly did not like the attitude - impudent pulling out of money. Excursions are more expensive than in agencies on the street by 30% - they lie about insurance, that the type does not work - this is not true, any company insures tourists on excursions. We went on 2 excursions from GinzaTravel and were satisfied with the guides and everything else!

I hope my review will be useful to you and those who want to have a normal rest, it is better to take a more expensive ticket than to spoil your vacation in such a hotel. We are not picky, but everything also has a limit.
