Hotel ratings by criteria:
Rested with the family, four people in the Family Suite. We were lucky with the room, the view was of the city and mountains and partly of the pool. (there can't be a sea view because it's far from the sea) The rooms are cleaned every day, but sometimes they forget to leave juices and water. By the way, shampoos also report not every day, but these are trifles. Linen was changed eight days after contacting reception. The number is a four with a minus (TVs are small, two Russian channels, the signal quality is not very good.
WI-FI is very weak and not everywhere, but this is the only connection with RUSSIA) It takes about ten minutes to walk to the sea along the river. The river sometimes smells bad, but it has a lot of fish and turtles that you can feed on eggs and bread. The beach is not bad, there is a bar and you can have a bite, but from 10 to 17 and this is the hottest time when everyone goes to the hotel. Animation deserves a separate review and rating (-1) Everywhere along the beach there are volleyball nets, except for this hotel! In the afternoon, they spend a rather boring game (BOCHA) once and that's it, there is no other entertainment! For ten days of stay Once at the hotel there was live music and dancing (animators sang) and once Karaoke (guests sang). You can get to the hammam only by appointment or for a paid massage. There is a gym and EVERYTHING! Ping pong at a nearby hotel, but you can't use the bar there. Water slides that look big in the photo are actually small and almost never work. (we went to a nearby hotel).
Restaurant: in the restaurant the choice is quite large, but there are always long queues and every day the same thing. Alcohol probably like everywhere local. Wine red, white and rose for everyone! (everything is not very pleasant) Their vodka is served warm and in a hot glass (freshly from the dishwasher), which does not add any taste to it. WHISKEY don't even try it, it's swill. There are different cocktails, but the choice is small and the waiters prepare them as best they can. Sprite and Fanta are the only ones to be commended. cola is also an amateur (not ours). Beer seems to be good, but only EFESS, always served only in glass and cold. They say that the restaurant is open at night and you can take a lunch box (in case of an early excursion or early departure), but this is not true! you can pick up the leftovers from the restaurant from dinner (apples and some sweets) Separately, I want to tell you about the tour.

We were three from TUI and went to the city in Antique Side ourselves (I highly recommend), but it’s better to get there by bus, and for this you need local money (it’s possible for dollars, but they don’t give change) At the same time, there are very good and notexpensive clothing stores. (DO NOT be persuaded that they will take you to good shops from the beach - they will only take you to their own and very expensive ones) We were on excursions to DEMRE (just super, but a very long road), RAFTING (a complete delight) and PAMUKKALE with Cleopatra's pool (great, but 420 km one way). In general, I liked the rest, but fires began in Turkey and the last days we were covered with ashes and the sun was not visible because of the smoke. Yes, I recommend everyone not to overpay for a convenient time of departure and arrival! anyway, everything changes and flights are delayed or, as in our case, are postponed to an earlier time. We arrived at 21.30, and were supposed to at 6.05 in the morning (lost one paid day) and left the hotel at four in the morning (minus another paid day)
