отдохнули, но вернуть не хочеться rested, but do not want to return

Here we are back from vacation.
Read the reviews before leaving. Most of them were "+", but sometimes - paradoxically polar. When you go to a new hotel for yourself, you always want to know the real picture (so to speak, “text in small letters”) - not only the pros, but also the cons of the hotel, in order to understand what to be prepared for. So we decided to check whether it really is so and feel the “life” in a 4 * hotel.
And so in order.

1. Number. It is worth noting that they were waiting for us and settled us immediately (although we arrived at 5.10 in the morning). The room is not bad (№362) overlooking the sea, the morning patio and one of the 2 pools. They immediately told the hotel employee that the shower door in the bathroom did not work, but until the end of the holiday, no one remembered about it. Everything is compact in the room: a wardrobe with 2 sections (one open, one closed), a compartment for suitcases. Modest, but tasteful. Separately want to say about the bathroom. Shower cubicle 60 x 60 cm (if your parameters do not correspond to 90x60x90 - pay attention to this). There is still a question that we could not answer: how can 2 people living in a room share ONE foot towel? ? Because Since our cubicle did not close tightly and the water was all over the bathroom, we used it (forgive me) to soak up water because the tiles become VERY slippery. The room was cleaned every day.
2. Food. Here opinions differ. We did not expect seafood and other delicacies, but the unchanged menu for 7 days is a lot even for us. Vermicelli. horns, spaghetti, fries, rice and mashed potatoes. Chicken, turkey, riba (namely riba). From vegetables - cucumbers, tomatoes, herbs, onions and peppers. From fruits - apples and tangerines. If you are in the mood for Turkish delight, baklava and other local sweets, this is the store. We were waiting for jelly tori, biscuit with canned cream and fruit (whose constantly someone "cut off" the top ball with cream and berries... ) and puff pastry buns. Plus pastries like pizza and panini. Something like this.
I would like to pay special attention to water. There is a separate machine for it, but you can only drink it for the first 10 minutes, just like drinks based on it. Then it turns into an indefinite liquid that cannot be drunk. There is a mineral water in the bar, but... 1 glass in hand. don't run. In addition, it is not known whether they will count it as an additional bill for you or not (you will find out later, when you hand over the number). Asked for a bottle, didn't get it. after they bought it in the city, they began to pour 0.5 liters into a bottle...
3. Livestock. The hotel is Kuklachov's dream. I have never seen so many cats! The official version “they say that other hotels are closed and they all came running to us” does not suit me. Cats were everywhere (mainly in the restaurant): under tables, chairs, on armchairs, sometimes with paws on tables, and even with their nose in your plate (we are not talking about sanitation). Some will say that I just don't like animals. Maybe, but when, on our eyes, this "fluffy-impudent animal" relieved its need on a dance 3 meters from a cooing baby, your opinion about them would probably change. Or rather, their number.
4. Internet. The price of $ 10 for 1 phone for a week of using the Internet in the 21st century is a bit too much in my opinion. But either so or not.

Separately, I want to say that the territory of the hotel "has" the stay of people with disabilities in it - there are ramps, special toilets and showers. Even a special ramp on the beach goes far into the sea.
But the SEA compensates for all this!
The hotel is on the first line. Because the territory is not large, then you did not have time to get up from the table and you are already almost on the beach. The beach consists of 3 tiers: the first is on the grass under palm trees, the second is a cement pad, and the third is the pebble beach itself. In the last days of our stay, the sea “washed out” half of the pebble beach and the entrance to the sea became almost sandy and even.
The hotel has 2 swimming pools, but near them we hid from the bright daytime sun, sometimes even someone swam in one of them.
A lot of greenery, there is a playground, a gym, a hammam, but we did not get to them.
The hotel itself is located in the village of Beldibi - a settlement with one street lined with shopping shops. Enough sights for one day, but no more. There was animation at the hotel, but this is not our type of holiday (sorry). For a couple of days there was rain, a storm and a strong wind - we went to Kemer. Minibus number 07 stops right next to the hotel, which will take you to the city center for $2 per person (they run until 23.00).
In Turkey, incl. in Kemer and its environs, we rest not for the first time. We specifically choose October, when it is not so hot and there are not so many vacationers. Many will say that this is the reason for the “deficiencies we found”. I do not agree. There are hotels that you want to return to, but this is not Sea Gall. Nothing specific, but once is enough.

We understood for ourselves what a “4 * hotel in the vicinity of Kemer” is. Maybe we're just so lucky? As the girl from the travel agency told us, “it’s you who are spoiled by 5 * hotels. ” Maybe, but when choosing the next tour, one of the conditions will be the “first line” and the location of the hotel in the city itself (adding another $ 20 for the Internet to the cost of the tour of $ 660, $ 20 for travel and all the other "little things") you understand that you will not come to this hotel again.
And further. One of the criteria for choosing a hotel will be the absence (or the minimum number) of vacationers from the "fraternal republic". Ashamed.
