Looking ahead, I'll say that, overall, the hotel left a very, very good impression. Those who want to relax will get it, and everything contributes to this. Don't be fooled, but as I've seen over many years of traveling, all Turkish hotels for the general public are generally more or less standard, from the food to the service.
Unfortunately, or perhaps fortunately, I tend to notice minor pros and cons, so I'll go over them a bit. The hotel itself is very conveniently located, and the space itself is very comfortably organized. The hotel is welcoming, so to speak. The rooms themselves are well-maintained, but in some areas they're tired and in places sloppy. Cleaning is done morning and every day, which is a very good sign for a hotel. Towels are also changed daily. Upon arrival, we had an incident: the refrigerator in our room wasn't working. I went downstairs, explained what was happening, and they promised to fix it. So, the maintenance staff showed up at 3 a. m. to fix it. Naturally, they couldn't fix it, they took the refrigerator, and by the time we checked out, it hadn't been returned. Of course, these are minor details. There's a safe in the room, but unfortunately, it's not attached to the wall. This is the case with all the rooms. I really didn't like the reception staff who were pushing their massage service. Incidentally, throughout our entire vacation, they kept calling us and trying to sign us up whenever they saw us. I don't like being pushy. The sea is very close to the hotel; the shore and entrance are pebbly, so there might not be enough sun loungers at peak times, so keep that in mind. The water is quite deep, 5-7 meters from the shore, and the water is neck-deep. Another positive is that the owner comes to supervise the hotel, staff, and equipment, which is good etiquette. Overall, I found the team to be very well-coordinated and friendly. The food is generally good and tasty, but repetitive day after day. Basically, it's a classic example of a hotel for the masses. Fish, chicken, rice, potatoes, French fries, onion rings, pizza, fruit, and sweets—you'll get that every day. On certain days, they have "sea days" where they cook crab and crayfish for dinner. Sometimes they even serve shawarma. The internet in the room is very, very slow, about 0.2-0.5 Mbps each way. The only thing a Russian really needs in a room is a washing machine. I strongly advise against visiting the local shops and markets; they're incredibly overpriced. And add to that the general lack of price tags...This year [2026] the prices are insane (you can tell the country is in crisis). I also don't recommend visiting the nearby paid beaches, as renting a sunbed for three with an umbrella for a day costs 3.000 lira. You understand, no one is going to lie around all day, so that's what they're designed for. Turks generally have this greed: it's better to have a lot here and now, but not a little at a time, and with an eye toward the future. The hotel, according to the World Tourism Organization's recommendations, truly qualifies as a four-star hotel. But that's about it, I think. And finally: if you ask me if I'd come back here, I'd say I'd be happy to. Oddly enough, this is the only hotel I'd want to return to.
