We arrived from Endam a week ago.
The hotel is small. Percent 60% - Russian tourists, 40% - Turks who came from other regions of their country.
We were seated as soon as we arrived, we didn't have to wait. They didn't give any money.
The rooms are not that sophisticated (as stated in the description of the hotel): cosmetic repairs are needed, the furniture is not new. But everything you need is in the room, TV with 3 Russian-language channels. True, from 10 pm to 2-3 am, music is blaring from the bar, which is located opposite the hotel across the road, and it is impossible to fall asleep at this time.
There were rumors that the rooms on the 4th floor are better, renovated, but they are settled there if the owner of the hotel orders it.

There is no TV room and disco club in the hotel (as again indicated in the hotel description) at all. Also, no one offered "biking, darts and table tennis. " “A lot of entertainment” - this is probably said about the water slide (it was turned on by the order of the hotel owner 1-2 times a day for 15-30 minutes) and a small garden in the courtyard of the hotel for preschool children, there were also 3 sports simulators.
None of the tourists saw "a stylish bar in the hotel lobby with comfortable upholstered furniture, where they offer a large selection of various drinks, cocktails and light snacks. " It must have been very well hidden.
The hotel has a sauna and a Turkish bath. But it’s better to go to the bathhouse, having bought a ticket from a travel agency on the street (they don’t cheat). By the way, all the tours offered by the guide at the hotel are 2-3 times more expensive than if you take the same ticket on the street. We really enjoyed the trip to the ranch and the horse riding.
Service: at the reception - at "5" (the staff is friendly, ready to listen carefully and help), in the restaurant and at the bar - at "4" (they work well, quickly remove used dishes from the tables, but I myself saw how the restaurant manager felt sorry for the water, which some vacationers collected in 0.5 l plastic bottles for drinking, ran up to them and scolded), housekeeping - at "3" (they smear dust in the corners, and once they didn’t even put towels, I had to run to the reception, understand).
The food for the "three-ruble note" is wonderful. Nobody went hungry. Every day they gave chicken or turkey or fish. They cook delicious. You could come up and ask for more. For dessert there were watermelons and melons.
Walk 3 minutes to the beach (across the road and a small park). There are umbrellas and sun loungers on the beach, but they are constantly busy. Moreover, the Russian mentality was evident - leaving for a while from the beach, my compatriots left their towel on a sun lounger, applying it with a cobblestone.
There were no problems with sun loungers near the pool. True, "great pool bar" is a big word.
In general, the Endam Hotel is a typical three-ruble note: no more, no less.
