We stayed in July 2009. We were set to 3 * and understood what we could expect. But what we saw was very disappointing. We arrived early - at 6 am, left our bags at the reception (although it is difficult to call it a reception) and went to see the territory. It was very dirty near the pool: the sunbeds were doused with beer (some of them had "accessories" from swimsuits), cigarette butts were lying everywhere, there were glasses with half-finished alcohol! I must say that for a week of rest, we have never been in the pool (however, we do not regret it, because we arrived first of all at the sea. The second pool near the Turkish bath (which is written about in the reviews) was completely with "blooming "water. Somehow I immediately got tired of visiting the bathhouse, we couldn’t even force myself to go there. There were 2 billiard tables near the bathhouse, but they were broken. In the so-called gym, there was desolation and 2 rickety simulators. there is nowhere to go. There are pomegranate and tangerine trees on the territory, a lot of flowers. I won’t write much about the cuisine: we were never hungry, but the food is very monotonous. For lunches and dinners, we always had to queue. It was very hot in the restaurant (especially during the day and in the evening), so somehow I didn’t really want to admire the Taurus Mountains (although they are certainly beautiful). Just 5 minutes walk to the beach, you need to cross the road. The beach is dirty (but it is still cleaned once a day), a lot of broken sunbeds. At the bottom, when you go into the sea, there are a lot of large stones, so you need to take care of your feet, many swam in rubber slippers. Now about the positive: They settled us at 10:30 (only my husband and I, the rest were waiting), although they promised not earlier than 12:00, why they settled early - I don’t know. Maybe because we didn't approach the hotel workers and didn't "pump our rights". We asked for a room with a safe (for an additional fee - $ 1 per day). The room is standard, everything that was stated in it was, and everything worked (While we were waiting for check-in, vacationers came to the reception and complained: someone about the non-working air conditioner, someone about the broken taps, someone about the lack of cleaning for 3.4 days, etc. etc. ). Our room was cleaned every other day without reminders, and every other day we left 1 dollar each. Towels were changed when cleaning was done, sheets were changed every 3 days. We entertained ourselves: once we went to Antalya (because this is not the first time in Turkey and we already know how and where to go), then to Kemer. We went to the mountains ourselves, walked through the forest, took many beautiful pictures. One evening we went deep into the village to eat Turkish cakes (guzleme). I really liked the market where they sell Turkish products (the market is open in the evenings), all handmade products, but they cost a penny. Well, of course, we were delighted with the warm and gentle sea, it "smoothed out" all the unpleasant moments. The hotel, in my opinion, does not even justify its 3 * and is designed for a very economical vacation.
