We rested in the Riviera this year in September. I want to say right away that the hotel is only 3 *, for what merits they were given the 4th - I don’t know, they probably bought it.
First, I will write what I liked. The hotel itself is clean, the staff, waiters, etc. do everything quickly and on time. With the number, too, everything was in order, a small truth, but it will do. The room is cleaned every day, the bed is made in the form of flowers and swan geese. But at the same time, they don’t wash the floors, don’t wipe the dust, and for some reason, they don’t put soap, you had to ask or use your own. Swimming pool, hammam, 2 indoor and outdoor restaurants with a bar. Everything is decent and clean.
Which made me angry and didn't like it. This is food. Disgusting tasteless vegetables in various forms, from meat - only tasteless chicken and various soy cutlets and sausages. Salads completely spoiled by mayonnaise or soy sausage. The fish is very rare and small, which was quickly sorted out and everyone did not get it. From drinks - soda from UPI. In fact, there was nothing to eat, a lot was piled up, but everything was inedible. A separate story with the bar, all alcohol, including free wine from barrels, oraque and vodka, is scorched. Drinking it is dangerous to health. More or less local beer manmara34, but heavily diluted with water. There are wines in bottles for $13-16, in the store they cost $10-12.

Delicious coffee, a large selection of teas, delicious buns are baked in the morning, delicious vegetable soups such as borscht or hodgepodge in the afternoon, something is grilled in the evening. Once they dragged a big fish ketu 35 kg (this is 1 time in 11 days !!! ).
The beach is 15 minutes walk, they take the bus several times a day. Not public, rented from the club. Chaise lounges, umbrellas, everything is free, the sea is clean, without jellyfish.
About excursions... in hotels they impose from a tour operator 2 times more expensive than in local travel agencies, referring to the alleged insecurity of the latter. I recommend that you are not afraid to take high-travel, ginza-, hero and others from locals. They have a lot of competition, so the local travel agents are not philanthropists. For example, a tour in Pamukala costs $70 from a hotel, and $35 from a private one.
In general, a good economy class hotel. But I don’t recommend it for families with small children and the elderly, as the animation is heard throughout the hotel until 12 at night, and, accordingly, food for well, for sooo healthy stomachs.
