The hotel was chosen based on the price and reviews on this site. Fortunately, they turned out to be true, the hotel is really good.
On the plus side, the food is very good. Here you will not have problems that there is not enough meat or it is quickly taken apart. And different things and a lot and constantly change, for a week they have never been repeated in terms of meat dishes. And they are all very tasty.
The second biggest plus is the staff. The room is really cleaned every day. In principle, it does not stop throughout the hotel and all the hotel staff are engaged in this. So that somewhere it was dirty and they did not pay attention to it - this was not the case. Constantly, somewhere they wipe something, clean it, take it out, etc. It feels like you are almost sterile.

The third plus is the hotel building itself and its condition. As of July 2018, it is in excellent condition and there are no complaints about this. Everything works, nothing flows anywhere, does not spark, does not creak.
Now for the downsides. Far from the sea (on foot about 2 km). The bus takes you to the sea only in the morning (there is a timetable in the lobby). Wi-fi is paid and of poor quality (it catches well in the room).
What follows is purely subjective. No animation. For me, this is a plus, because. I do not like it. Those who want to hang out - this hotel is definitely not for you. But every 2-3 days in the evenings various performances or foam parties are organized.
The hotel itself is relatively close to the bus station Side. You can leave it on your own, for example, to Antalya (15 lira) or Alanya (24 lira). A little further is the historical part of the city with the temple of Apollo, the amphitheater and in general all the sights of Side. I recommend visiting them immediately after dinner, when the sun has almost set. during the day in July it is very hot. There, among the historical sights, there is a whole shopping district consisting exclusively of various shops for tourists, cafes and restaurants. Also within walking distance from the hotel is a Deniz Bank ATM, where you can immediately withdraw lira from your Sberbank card without commission. There are several supermarkets (I recommend trying the local Ayran), McDonald's, Burger King, Pizzeria, LC Waikiki store.
Another feature of the hotel are actually vacationers. This is not a 100% Russian hotel, almost half of the Germans, British, Turks and even the French met here. Therefore, not all staff speak Russian, some speak only English and German. Yes, and the whole of Side is imprisoned mainly for the Germans. Most of the booklets and inscriptions will be duplicated primarily in German.
Personally, my stay in this hotel left only positive memories.
