We chose a hotel for a long time, the main selection criterion was the proximity to the old town and the sea. Unfortunately, the first Nerton hotel we chose was taken literally from under our noses. Late booking by an hour. We chose Sayonora Hotel. To the city 10 minutes, to the sea 3 minutes. When I was looking for reviews on it, I found only two Russians, but there was a sea in German, Dutch, Danish and English. And the titles: "Again rest and again Sayono-ra", "Rest of my dreams", "This is a fairy tale", etc. "Wonderful, so there will be no drunken compatriots, " I thought. Looking ahead, I’ll say: it really wasn’t !! ! The Danes, the Dutch, the Germans and the British rested.
Now about the hotel. The hotel is very small. A two-story building built in the form of a square. The whole territory is a patio with a pool and sun loungers around it. Well, a tiny playground with a swing in front of the reception. The rooms are spacious with a large balcony. View of the pool from all rooms. The room has air conditioning, a refrigerator and a small TV-set. I was disappointed that there was no shampoo and shower gel in the bathroom. For a three-ruble note - a clear flaw.
Meals in this hotel - "it's just some kind of holiday. " For breakfast: cheeses - and sheep, and ordinary, and cheese; four types of yogurt, and scrambled eggs, and scrambled eggs, and potatoes with sausages. For lunch and dinner, two types of meat are required, soups (different for lunch and dinner). I’m not talking about the abundance of eggplants and other side dishes. With fruits "weak". Not a season. There were only strawberries, medlar, oranges, apples and bananas.

Drinking got me. On the first day, we ordered crayfish for lunch. Before we had time to drink, the waiter asked: "How do you like the raki? " I said, "Great. " And he brought us 2 more GLASSES!!!
Now for the downside. This hotel does not have its own piece on the nearby beach, respectively, sunbeds and umbrellas for an additional fee. True, a free bus runs from the hotel to the beach with free sunbeds and umbrellas, but it only runs twice a day at 10.10 and 11.10, and returns only at 15.30 and 16.30, incl. you have to choose: either the beach or lunch.
If you are going to Side to see the city, wander among the ancient ruins, visit museums, then Sayonora is the best option. If you are planning a long beach holiday, then it is better to look at another hotel.
