Our review of the hotel!
I don’t want to make too much negativity about this hotel and its staff, but I want to talk about those disadvantages - which take place in it!
Usually, conclusions are made at the end of the story, and I will write them at the beginning - and if you want to know something in more detail, read below everything is written point by point!
I will also try to describe the hotel from a more objective side without underestimating or overestimating its assessment.
1) The diet - strictly measured - only at certain hours and not otherwise. 2.5 points
2) The food is rather poor, there was no meat at best, chicken, no seafood other than fish, a lot of soy and grass - everything is monotonous from day to day. 3 with an interference ball

3) Bar - average beer, local vodka, sprite, pepsi, white and red wine (so-so wine) and the main and meanest drawback of the bar is that it opens after 10 am - that is, after breakfast (that is, for breakfast, except water and coffee you take nothing, no cola, no beer, no wine) and becomes paid at 10 pm - when the entertainment program starts! small glass of cola 1 bucks and all prices like that
4) The beach bar is a complete failure! opens from 10 am and there is nothing in it except for two types of invite juices, plain water and coffee from the machine, and until 10 am you will not be able to wash your feet and take a shower after visiting the beach, since the water in the shower is turned on only in the beach bar and while there is no employee until 10 am you won’t drink water and you won’t wash your feet from the sand. (See review below for more details)
5) Rooms 3.5 balls - not large without embellishment TV 4 channels of which 2 are Russian-speaking, a balcony, a shower, a double bed and a single bed.
6) Staff - cleaning for 3 balls, receptionist 3 balls, staff at the bar 4.5 balls, animators 2.5 balls with an interference - very weak, almost non-existent animation, but in principle they were kind to children and short evening children's discos were small. The little kids really liked it.
7) Haman 2 balls - the repair requires a major overhaul - the piece is pouring from the ceiling and there is not a pleasant damp smell inside
8) beach 3 balls - the sea itself has no words - it's cool, schizolongs, like everyone else, have no complaints in general, but the lack of an elementary wooden path to the water is a complete failure. You get out of the water, rinse your feet in the sea, put on flip-flops and walk back along the sand - the sand sticks to your feet very well and you need to wash it off again until you reach the central path and wipe off your feet.
9) The pool is solid 4 balls - not big - but not bad, convenient for small children - there is a children's pool with warmer water. There is also a small water slide, but the children like it.
10) Playground - more than one name, there are children's football goals 3 meters apart - so for show.
11) The territory of the hotel is really not big but cozy and green 4 solid balls.

In general, summing up the pros and cons, our assessment of the hotel with my wife is not 4 stars, but 3 with great interference. it would be possible to put triples, but the repair has not been done for a long time))!
Moreover, I talked and got acquainted with many guests of the hotel during the 10 days that we lived in it, out of curiosity I asked their opinion about the hotel - no one had a desire to return there a second time and everyone said that it didn’t smell like four. Savings on the schedule, food menu and bar on the face. Savings in maintaining the hotel in a cosmetic tone. And as a rule, most tourists got there out of ignorance in the hope that four stars will justify themselves. In general, we will not go there again and we will not advise others. And I wish you to choose a hotel that you could recommend to friends and yourself would like to get back to it! ))
If you have any questions, here are the details below, I painted everything that I remember!
1) Eating schedule and its cons
Breakfast from 7:30 to 10:00 am
Lunch 1230 to 1400
Dinner from 19 to 21
Afternoon snack at 17, and then most of them don’t know about him before leaving - no one gave information on this issue - so if they heard from others.
We stopped at about +_ at 10 in the morning, with us 2 one-year-old children - terribly exhausted by a 6-hour flight - I wanted to eat and go to bed. But I had to stick around in the lobby and wait for the start of dinner. Changed in the sauna locker room on the basement floor. No snacks, a clear schedule from bell to bell - the doors of the dining room are closed.
2) Self powered
the first two days we studied a not very rich assortment of dishes and salads. On the third day, everyone had already studied and realized that he was not really rich, but even a bit poor.
a) Breakfast
eggs
sort of sweet rice porridge
french fries, buns, like processed cheese
sometimes - very soy sausage
deep fried soy sausages
pasta under a baked cheese skin (the rest of yesterday's not eaten - baked for today)
Turkish soups-puree 2 or 3 types.
Salads in total 7 types but all are outrageously monotonous
tomatoes with cucumbers in olive oil
prmidors with cucumbers and parsley
tomatoes with cucumbers and onions

occasional bean salad
and just chopped peppers without anything
baked eggplants, zucchini and any herb in similar forms....
sauces
mayonnaise sauce
ketchup sauce
lemon sauce
olive sauce
and a couple more similar but not far gone
Dessert
plum
melon
watermelon
apples
pears
moreover, in the main, two or three of the above-mentioned species together were not exhibited at all!
there were homemade yegurts with sourness but 1 or 2 types, but visitors didn’t eat them much, although they seemed to be quite edible
B) Lunch
Beautifully fried soy meat - but it doesn't taste very good!
soups of the same three types
the above salads
fried soy sausages
pasta
fried fish (no fine - just fried) - almost every day
twice in 10 days had mashed potatoes
french fries, large and often fried with the skin on
sometimes they gave fried chicken - either paws or thighs - I emphasize about every other day - but not every day
of the side dishes, mostly rice and that's it!
also all sorts of fried peppers, eggplants, and any fresh herb that hurts.
Dessert
cakes from 3 to 5 types, mostly repeated from day to day - not bad but the choice is limited like all other dishes in this hotel
B) dinner
similar to lunch almost the same day after day repetitive.
Now about the bar
in the bar
pepsi (namely pepsi and not cola)
fanta
sprite
soda water (that is, according to our mineral water)
and 4 UPI drinks from diluted powders (not natural juice from chemical powders)
keg beer (tuborg and sometimes if the tuborg ended for some other but not with a memorable Turkish name) the beer is so-so not good not bad average but after three 4 glasses you don’t get as drunk as you want to sleep!
white and red wine is poured from barrels (that is, not bottled - draft) most likely can be called barmatukha more than wine - it tastes sour!
still local vodka, but I didn’t even try it - because the experts said that this booze didn’t really even want to drink.
Beach
walk for 5 minutes or so - not far - it is quite possible to walk without straining

But compared to other beaches that closely border each other, there is no elementary wooden path to the water, that is, returning to the hotel after washing your feet in the sea, you will definitely leave the beach in freshly adhering sand that wakes up your heels)))!
beach bar
a complete minus and a shame by Turkish standards
All the beaches in the area open at 8 00 and they have at least everything that is in the hotel bars, plus snacks in the form of sandwiches and everything else.
In Rizzi, the bar opens at 10 and it has only water in the cooler, only 2 types of Jupi drinks, coffee from the machine - a few high chairs and a multi-seat soft beach sofa - pipets
at the same time, many go to the sea to swim in the morning before 10 - in order to avoid the bright pouring sun, which after 10 really begins to rage. And in this case, those returning from the beach cannot even wash their feet and rinse in the shower after the salty sea - because the shower water is turned on in the beach bar in which there is no one before 10.
and as a result, you won’t even see water there until 10 in the morning and you won’t even give your child water to drink, unless of course you took it with you again from the cooler at the hotel or you have to buy it at three on the way to the market on the way to the hotel.
And while you are walking in sandals, coarse sand will sand your heels while you watch how sandwiches are distributed in the beach bars in the neighborhood, beer is poured, even the same cola, sprite and fanta. the neighbors also have more comfortable grounds - lawns where they do yoga and more sunbeds under awnings in the shade.
Rooms
ordinary without beauty - it should be noted that the hotel was built at the beginning of two thousandths, since then there has not been any repair done there - maybe at best cosmetic and for a long time.
The carpet paths are already quite worn out, the furniture is quite ordinary, but also from the beginning of two thousandths. on TV 4 channels two russians one german and bbs

there is a conder, it works normally only when the window is closed - there is a sensor there and only if there is a key to the room in the controller. When you pull out the key fob and leave the room is de-energized automatically - but this is in many hotels.
showers without beauty and except for liquid soap from a manual hanging machine in the shower and at the sink. there is nothing - shampoo is not issued !!!
Each room has a small balcony but with a high chair - the railings are made so that the child does not get stuck and does not fall out - you can be calm for this.
Room cleaning
Yes, they come - women are friendly, not evil, but they seem to clean up not badly - but relatively! change towels, toilet paper, vacuum but not more than that. The most uncomfortable thing is that they come after dinner just when the majority of Russian people go to sleep for at least half an hour for an hour.
And accordingly, cleaning is rare because you are just in the room when they come.
Staff
Reception - everything is like a knurling - a Turkish man does his job, but he can be rude and not particularly ceremonious with guests who are dissatisfied for some reason. - Call the chief, - I'm the chief.
in short, and quarrel with him not for long, but it’s not a fact that it will give something other than a spoiled mood and negativity, which will surely settle in the depths of your soul! I did not swear, but I saw the process from the outside.
The guys at the bar and assistants - cleaners. Normal friendly, no one was rude - stupidly do their job.
Animation - animation is weak - just pipets as weak - very weak. Although the guys animators theme and Nastya are quite good-natured and good guys. And for little kids they did everything well. And they entertained and arranged short children's discos in the evenings. But the chief animator - a young Turk - is quite self-confident - supposedly all fashionable-cool - he did not surprise us with anything cool and incendiary. More show-offs are of little use!
There is a beach photographer - can take pictures to take pictures or souvenirs with your photo
Background music accompanying lunches and dinners and breakfasts

as a rule Boring Greek launch music. somehow does not even have to eat. When they turned on English-speaking slow-mos, it was even more pleasant!
The territory of the hotel, children's playground - swimming pool
the area is small but overall cozy and green! pomegranate palms, limes.
from a child's step only a small football goal five meters from each other
the pool is not big but with a playground for children where the water is twice as warm, which is a plus with children it’s not bad to spend time in it - even with small ones like ours, there is not a big water slide, more for children and unfortunately it usually works in the first half days
Haman
a complete failure - in fact there is a bathhouse and once it was in a normal state, but there is a pipets, it smells of dampness, the smell of urea flies in the air. whitewash is falling from the ceiling. Needs a refurbishment, that's for sure. They ask for 25 bucks for additional procedures, and for comparison, street guides with a free transver (7 km in one direction and 7 in the other direction) got 15 bucks and a much nicer place to which they took their wife.
