1. Upon arrival, check-in, getting a room. Windows on the city. I came up and asked if I could exchange for a room with a sea view - there is a possibility, but they ask for $ 5 per day for changing the room.
2. Sunbeds should not be occupied by a thrown towel. You go to the beach, not one person, and not one free sunbed. Towels were thrown on everyone. People go out at 6 in the morning, take a sunbed and go on to sleep.
3. Guide Anex tour (name Izmir) persuades you to go buy something from clothes, jewelry... they are taken to shops (transfer is free), which are intended only for tourists. There are no other people there. But prices are much higher than just in the market. I think this is a scam (deception) of tourists. Free transfer, special shops for tourists,... a lot of tour companies clog these shops with tourists. Prices, such as jackets, range from $500 to $15.000.

4. Guide - Izmir, offering tourism services is overly tempting for tours. Promises an unforgettable experience. Not forgotten and remained, but not from the best side. For example, a trip to the Yacht Yusuf Kaptan. Price per person - $49.20-30 people are promised on the yacht with everything free (food, alcohol) They are taken out on an old boat (not a yacht, as promised) to the island, which they themselves call "Turkish Maldives". Instead of 20-30 people, there are about 80 people on the boat. They moor to this small island from 3 different sides, give them time to swim and go home. The food on the boat is not bad. I got Dorado fish, pasta and salad. Alcohol or cola - you can take something of your choice in the amount of 2 units. Choice of: beer 0.3l or cola/fanta/water 0.25l. Everything. The rest is for money. A bottle of beer 0.3l - $5. Etc. Rating of the boat-yacht - 3 out of 5. For experience; )
5. The pool is only open until 19:00. This is not enough. In the evening, on the contrary, I want to lie on the pool.
6. Alcoholic Drinks are cheap. Whiskey is disgusting. Beer is more or less okay. Whiskey Jack or Jameson for a fee. Although ultra all inclusive.
7. I liked the kitchen. Delicious cooking. The staff understands and partially speaks Russian. English is not needed. Bartenders pour as much as you ask. Approached - 3 to 100 drinks - no problem. Meals 3 times a day (free of charge). Enough.
8. The rooms are clean. Remove quality. All electronics work. It can be seen that the hotel is fresh, new, modern.
9. The sea is clean. The beach is cleaned regularly. One part of the beach for smokers, the second for non-smokers. Well done here. On the beach there is a mini bar with shawarma and beer. But, work from 11:30 to 16:40. Plus minus 10-15 minutes. As I understand it, they close when they sort out food.
10. Animations are simple. Elementary dances and local singers who mostly sing Russian songs. No humor, no competition. The animation lasts about 1.5-2 hours. Maybe it's because of the corona virus.

In general, I leave the hotel rested.
Although there are disadvantages (everything is not perfect everywhere), I recommend staying at this hotel.
