Brief digression. The charter carrier SkyUp, due to its policy of rescheduling flights, stole from us almost a day of rest, as the flight was postponed by 17 hours in advance. We will file a complaint. And now about the hotel. The hotel is small old, there are not enough stars from the sky, we chose it because of the price and good location.

+ in the city of Alanya, and not in the nearby villages. The staff knows only a few phrases in Russian, as it is imprisoned for Europe, but speaks good English.
+ not far from the beach, you can say across the road from the beach.
+ there are not many tourists in the hotel.
+ good staff
+ (maybe this is relevant for the period of the pandemic) there was no buffet, they were given in portions but tasty
+ good undiluted beer from the bottle
+ spacious rooms with kitchen
+ not far from Cleopatra beach and fortress
_______________________________________
- old rooms
- dirty beach away from the hotel
- large stones on which it is not pleasant to walk barefoot
- stones entering the sea (I recommend corals, or swimming in slippers, you can get hurt)
- meager diet (rather it looks not like All Inclusive, but like a full boarding house)
- tired bed linen and towels (with yellow, black stains or holes)
- rare cleaning for 12 days was cleaned 3 times.
- maybe it got there, quarantine was announced until 17 and the beers were removed from the bar, they said no, but when I returned from the beach, I saw how 3 boxes were loaded into a taxi and taken away from the hotel into oblivion.
Push. If you want Wi-Fi, go to the beach, take tea for two for $1 and ask to use Wi-Fi, and Wi-Fi is yours for the rest of your holiday.

I must say right away that we rested at the end of the season, so there are not so many people in the city, and there are many pensioners in the hotel. We were seduced by good reviews, but not everything is so left: old furniture that needs to be repaired, torn curtains. . . As soon as we arrived, at the reception we were told that there were no places, and they offered us to another hotel for three days, offering a bottle of champagne.

As soon as we arrived, at the reception we were told that there were no places, and they offered us to another hotel for three days, offering a bottle of champagne. What?!
The towels were never changed. The food is almost monotonous, but delicious, we ate a lot, chicken is different every day, fish was given twice, breakfast is monotonous, coffee sucks. But a trio is nothing like that. We had a kitchen with a fridge and stove. cutlery and glasses. We liked it. View from the window to the mountain.
The beach is across the road, but it's better not to go there. It hurts to go into the water on the rocks. We went to the Cleopatra beach with amazing water. Passed through the Big Bazaar. We rode the funicular, walked up the mountain, the views are amazing. I highly recommend.
This is my second time in Alanya and I will say that you should not take excursions from hotel guides. They cost twice as much.

A few days ago, WITH PLEASURE, we returned from this hotel, as at the end we were already counting the days until departure. In order: transfer about 3 hours, not stressful, settled immediately, for 20 Baku they gave a room on the fourth floor. Two rooms, a nice big balcony along the entire room. The room has a very small shower, my size 52 fit, but for larger people it will be problematic.

The room has a very small shower, my size 52 fit, but for larger people it will be problematic. Who cares - there is a TV with one Russian channel (TNT). There is no cleaning, the balcony, as it was dirty when checking in, remained not washed even once, they take out the garbage, and thanks for that. For chocolate and lyre, they wound up swans a couple of times, but we didn’t have to, they just left it as a sign of attention for not too hard, but still work.
Food - nothing worse, the only thing, I'll be fair, delicious soups, otherwise only terribly peppered chicken, I saw how people cut off its upper part with knives so that it would be possible to eat at least something, once there was trout, but already "with a smell" didn't dare to eat. One of the reviews says: “The choice for the trio is huge. Never had any offal. Meat in whole pieces. Fish, perfectly fried, large. If they served fish, they still had meat. They also gave me pork. " The most interesting thing is that the review is also for September! Well, there was never any pork, no simultaneous choice of fish and meat, the hotel's motto is chicken, only chicken and nothing but chicken! It would be okay without this insane amount of spices, otherwise it’s impossible to eat, or is it a special hotel concept to eat less? ! With regard to us, they had a ride, I hope they became richer. In June, we rested on the opposite side of the mountain, there was also often a chicken, but we ate there with pleasure, as it was cooked for people (the hotel is focused on the Germans).
At the bar - non-alcoholic beer, but cold, wine, of course, the cheapest (we saw the same at a sale in Migros), but not diluted, no questions. We tried an alcoholic cocktail with some kind of poisonous red liquid, but could not finish it. Didn't try strong. I don’t advise paid cocktails, I witnessed how a woman demanded change from $ 50 for three cocktails (cocktails cost $ 10 or 50 lira), and the girl on tap pretended not to understand anything, I had to call the administrator, who also does not understand Russian I don't know how the incident ended. Another time, when a young guy was given a cocktail, he was told that he had to pay extra. He began to be indignant, his friend came up and said that if there was not enough money, he would add, to which the first one replied that at first they named one amount, and now they demand twice as much.
This fate did not escape me either: in the evening the three of us went to the karaoke bar of the hotel, I asked for 2 mojito cocktails (daughter does not drink), for some reason they did 3 for me. Well, they did it, they did it. I had 100 lire with me in advance, I gave them away and went to the table for money. Took $20 to pay $10 extra. and went to the bar. The bartender was busy with other orders, and then stubbornly pretended not to notice me. After waiting like a poor relative for about 15 minutes, I sat down at a table and immediately one of the waiters ran up and began to mutter about the payment. I gave him 20 dollars, explaining with gestures what the third cocktail was, I had already paid for two. He nodded his head, returned five minutes later and gave me the change……. 2 dollars. I went to the bar to sort things out. They showed me a completely different waiter who didn’t look like me, I said that I gave the money to another, to which I was given the answer that it was my own fault, because I don’t know who I gave the money to! I demanded that they find out from the video, returned all three untouched cocktails and, saying in Turkish "chok teshekkur ederim" - thank you very much, left. The next day, the bartender from our hotel (Kyrgyz Nurdzhigit) said that they figured it out, the confused waiter was to blame for everything. And that's it! No apology, no refund, not even a previously paid cocktail! Authentic Turkish hospitality....
The beach is really close, but be aware that this is a narrow strip of sand for several hotels. The sunbeds of our hotel are green, standing in five rows of ten. By simple mathematical calculations, it is easy to guess that with 55 hotel rooms for 2-4 people each, there will not be enough places for half of the vacationers (I am attaching a photo to confirm). You won’t be able to lie down on towels either - there really is no place. Entrance to the sea tin. First, they knocked their feet into the blood, and then they took advantage of the life hack of some vacationers - you go into the sea knee-deep and immediately on your belly, vice versa. Not very comfortable and not at all aesthetically pleasing. And this is for us, middle-aged people, I generally keep quiet about children. I saw how an elderly German couple, carefully holding each other's hands, tried to enter the sea. After both of them almost fell several times, the man waved his hand doomedly and they returned to the shore, it was really a pity for them.
Unsanitary conditions are complete, about flies, smells and cats (some of them are sick), everything in previous reviews is correct.
Upon returning home that same night, my wife was taken to the Botkin hospital with nausea, vomiting and convulsions, I also somehow survived that night with these symptoms of poisoning, a coincidence?
Anticipating the comments “what do you want for three kopecks”, I’ll say in advance that they paid 124 tr from St. Petersburg for 10 nights for three, not so much, but I think it’s enough not to see dead mice, to have at least some some tolerable food (except for soups) and not get to the hospital upon return.

The hotel was chosen based on reviews and budget. We arrived at 10 am, had breakfast and were seated. The room stock is old, but we are not picky. There is no territory there, an urban-type hotel, a swimming pool and this is the whole territory. There was no animation. The food is good. Near the beach, with umbrellas and sun loungers.
