Rested with a girl, the tour went on a special offer.
The first, like the last, impression is spoiled by check in/check out.

SETTLEMENT.
We arrived at 11 am.
Immediately upon arrival, they decided to take blue bracelets, providing themselves with food and drink.
The key to the room was given at 14:00, but since the room was not cleaned, they waited until 16:00. I really wanted to take a shower after the road, it was hot.
In the future, almost every day there were scandals due to the fact that there were no rooms, twice we observed that people spent the night at the reception without a room and without food! ! ! Some were taken to another hotel. Perhaps the Russian tour operator let them down without booking them a hotel room.

NUMBERS.

All rooms are the same, both on the mountains and on the sea, only in those that are very hot on the sea - the sunny side. Small, cozy, after repair, although the vandalism of previous vacationers is still noticeable. They understaffed our bed with blankets, there was no ashtray on the balcony, they extinguished cigarette butts in a glass.
The phone by the bed and in the bathroom worked, but the call was never subdued to us. True, the batteries in the remote were asked to be changed. Cleaning every day, bed every other day, the bar was filled every other day (cola, fanta, sprite, two mineral waters and two bottles of still water). If there was something left in the bar before the next filling, the cleaners can easily pull off the bottle, and even have a bite to eat with a bun. Often after cleaning the room had the smell of fresh buns. There are several nauseating channels on TV, but you can only watch Turkish MTV, and then not for long.

WEATHER.
The first days were cool and on the second day it rained a little, but then the weather spoiled us with the sun (+25. . +32) and warm sea (+18... +22).

BEACH/SEA.
On the beach imported unpolished pebbles to go into the sea - slippers bought in Egypt came in handy. The sea is deep almost immediately, the buoys are very far away, there are fish, crabs. There are almost no algae. The water is very clean and salty.
Nearby there is a wild beach where tourists are brought from cheap hotels. Vigilant security does not allow them to the beach of the hotel. Almost no one swims in the sea, garbage was seen only once - thrown from some passing yacht.

NUTRITION.
A variety of dishes: meat (turkey, chicken, lamb, beef, sausage, fish, cooked eggs in the morning), vegetarian / dietary muesli, salads, soy, casseroles, a lot of vegetables. Lots of delicious cheeses for every taste. Fruits: apples, grapefruits, oranges, watermelon, there were still some Turkish names I don’t remember. There were no strawberries: (There were mountains of sweets, but I didn’t like everything. Some cakes were still decorated with strawberries, which were quickly taken apart. For lovers of spicy there was a table of spices.
There were so many different pastries that even one piece of everything is unrealistic to try.

In general, you could stay hungry if you didn’t come to the restaurant and didn’t go to the bar on the beach, and still didn’t go to the bar for the sweet tooth with cakes and ice cream. The restaurant with outdoor seating had problems at lunch and dinner, everything was free in the morning.

There are two a la carte restaurants: fish (you can go once for free) and Turkish (10 evergreens for everything).

THE DRINKS.
Looking ahead, I will say that the cognac there is very good : )
and whiskey was better in Egypt. All alcoholic drinks are free, cocktails are made for 5 greens, but you can tell yourself what to pour without money. Another good martini. And don't drink vodka better : ) I haven't tried cocktails.

Beach Bar 24/7! From one o'clock in the morning they serve sandwiches.

ANIMATION.
The animators are super active, they didn't let anyone get bored, there were a lot of competitions. The jokes are stupid like in a comedy club, but no one forces you to watch and listen : )
May 22 was youth day, instead of animators, a team with national dances performed, and a national flag hung in every hotel, in general, all Turks are patriots, regardless of political views. Every day there is a disco with a free bar and the animators here also have time to warm up the people.

HOLIDAYERS.
The hotel is equipped with special paths for wheelchairs, many elevators and in each toilet there are cabins for the disabled. Most vacationers are pensioners from the European Union. There were a few from Russia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan. From Ukraine there was only one of our group of 14 people.
Rested amicably and cheerfully, knowledge of English will provide an opportunity to make acquaintances and friends there, as well as to communicate with the staff.

POOLS.
There are three pools: a large one, a children's pool with slides and inside the spa. After swimming in a large one, herpes jumped out. So everything is in the sea, almost no one swims there.

GRADE.

You can put solid 4 * +, but it still falls short of five. As an indicator, the rooms have carpet instead of tiles. The rooms are understaffed, they do not have time to repair everything. But the administration is trying to make the rest more pleasant and every day pleases vacationers with some new products: either new dishes, or leather ottomans on the pier, or increases lighting.
