Vacation with 2 children.
Coronovirus knocked out of normal life and therefore, instead of the usual 5 in the vicinity of Kemer, we ended up here. The city hotel was not considered initially (only 1 line), we love Tekirova, we pass on the budget, we fly to Pinara.
The hotel is very tired. Tired reception, rooms, dishes, staff. Only the pine forest and the sea feel good. But we knew where we were going.

Settlement. More than strange. At check-in, an unknown person appeared from the staff room, without a badge and identification marks, and began to hum in Turkish English that we had an overbooking. There are no rooms and until 9 am we are offered to check into the Festival Park nearby and actively use the services of 2 hotels at once. Of course, I'm under the influence, but my brain told me to call the Moscow guide before agreeing. The houses were surprised, tensed and strained Pegasus. While a chain reaction was taking place in the Motherland with attempts to find out what the garbage was, people without a badge began to load our things into the car. Upon learning that he was in a hurry to please us and we were waiting for a decision from the tour operator, he drooped straight and clicked his tongue that we were in vain. "If you don't want to, don't, why should the operator call immediately, 15 minutes and the number will be. " To say that I was stunned is to say nothing. Meanwhile, Pegasus called the reception and the room was provided in 5 minutes. That's what it was?
A lot of people were settled with even worse problems, then another hotel will be offered, then they will be taken to the "annex". The administration stirs up along the way and holds the bungalow for the Turks. We are more fortunate than others. But I have not met a single person without problems with the settlement.
Number. We paid for bungalows, those in the main area. The annexes are located somewhere else, people are taken there by cars (the last one at 24 o'clock). I can’t say that the repair was a success and looks like on the photo of the hotel’s website. The old walls are smeared with fresh paint, the furniture is scraggly and sad, the air conditioner is a dream in general... To pay tribute to the mattresses - new, dense, comfortable. On the windows, I was surprised by the tulle - one edge is processed, the second is simply torn off. See photo. Our bed linen was of good quality (in annexes with flowers, etit). Towels are clearly collected from neighboring hotels, we even came across Rixos. The TV set is large, flat, but stupid. Bully TNT and all. I didn’t want to read the flash drive, I didn’t agree to catch other channels. 1 large bed, 1 wooden bunk bed, 2 bedside tables, a wardrobe without shelves, a refrigerator without connection, a safe and a telephone in the closet on the shelf, the light in the bathroom turns off every now and then. Reception only accepts applications. Lamps are crooked, sometimes they simply do not exist. But we only spent the night there, so we scored.
Food. They'll feed you, don't worry. Maybe it's even better - there is nothing superfluous - sour salads a la rus, all sorts of spicy seasonings, too, like a salad. Vegetables are fresh, tasty, pickles, herbs. Cheese, olives, fruits. For hot dishes 2 side dishes, 2 main courses, 1 soup, sweets. And the know-how of this hotel is fried herring. I never knew in my life that it was fried. Of course, there is no such abundance as in the fives, but everything is to the point and edible. Do not expect any ayrans, cakes on the beach, grilled crabs, donuts, etc. There is only one canteen on the territory, there is no a la carte.

Alcohol. 2 bars in total - by the pool and in the canteen. Beer on tap, bottled wine, I think it was gin, but I didn't take it. Everything is poured into cheap plastic, there is no glass at all. I'm not a fan of drinking from a disposable, so I went with my glass, poured without problems. The bar is closed during lunch and dinner. The bar counter is cracked, and stinks of rotten rags from under it.
Animation? Haven't heard of this one. Music by the pool in a native Turkish style. We played darts once, and a dollar bingo lottery. On weekends, if Boryusik wants, the Turks will entertain with their howl in karaoke a la habibi. Do not look for Russian songs, he does not have a layout on his computer, and you will not find our songs in Latin.
Beach. Large, not well maintained, for 3 hotels. The staff is small, but the tourists themselves are pigs. If you "shit" for yourself, why kick on the mirror? A bull and a glass can be thrown into the urn? That will be clean. But globally "shit" on the beach only the Turks on weekends at night. Chaise lounges are presented in all modifications (it's a pity the neighboring Gyural does not write off his own - beds are good), and, of course, without mattresses. Beach towels are of different materials, bought at flea markets, sometimes they are frankly tattered rags. Take them at the reception, there are no cards, no exchange points.
Swimming pool. In the natural shade of the pines, always cool, but cloudy. Does not light up at night. 2 small slides. The ladder is broken to death.
Wi-Fi. I don't know worse. Even around the corner the reception is collapsing, finding a good point is difficult. They can even turn it off and "repair" it for half a day.
In general, the impression that he came to visit a divorced old hoarder, who is still swaggering and trying to lure with his faded charms. At first, nothing, but by the end of the 7th day it annoys me, and by 10th it infuriates me.
80% are Turks, the rest are Russians and our brothers are Ukrainians.
