I have never written before, but this time I decided to. Perhaps my review will help someone.
I'll make a reservation - I'm a person. unpretentious, not capricious, without antlers, but before that he had a rest only in 5 * UAI.
First impression.

We arrived at 5 am. For some reason, they brought it from the "back porch", passing by wastelands-garbage bins, seemingly abandoned greenhouses. Not a soul. The territory seemed tiny, the beach was dirty and this stove. Instantaneous sensations of arrival in the outback. Waiting for check-in from 5 to 13.30. In the first 1-2 days the food seemed terrible. Heaps of soy meat with a powerful smell of an old horse - in Russia there is probably nothing like this anywhere. As one aunt said - "pig food. " (Subsequently, the opinion about the "stern" cardinally changed to a confident plus. ) The staff did not shine with cordiality. In general, the first impression is sad. Later it turned out that everything is not so bad. But with 5 * Turkish and with real 4 * the difference is palpable in absolutely everything.
The building, the hall, the rooms, the well-groomed territory - quite well. Probably the strongest point of the hotel.
Canteen (no, not a restaurant) and bars.
Absolutely nothing, you can live. Of course, there are no frills there - fries, variations of chicken, watermelon and ordinary salads - this is the peak. But edible, a lot. Normally, I was satisfied. From drinks, cola, beer, cocktail, some kind of vodka and yupi, which they call juice. There are coffee machines. There are not enough tables. Picking up plates and hanging out in a packed hall is a common thing.
Beach.
Yes, life-threatening, like a creepy slab covered in oil. I witnessed tangible injuries, those who nevertheless dared to enter. One girl had both knees bandaged on the very first morning of her stay. According to the stories - one guy badly broke his elbow. He tried to get compensation, but he was immediately sent for a blood test, they announced that alcohol was found and the compensation was refused. Don't try again!! ! Thus, the hotel does not have its own entrance to the sea. But this is not a problem, you can go through the next one. Even better - from the pier. There is a ladder, you can jump, 2 m is a good height! ) The water is very clean, a lot of fish, for lovers with a mask. At 250 meters a cool wild beach.
The pool is very small and there is always a terrible smell of chlorine.
Service.

From the first minutes it became clear that the staff would not indulge in courtesy and strong hospitality, after 5 * it just hurts the eye, but personally I didn’t really need it. Politeness is not a corporate standard there, but a personal matter of each employee. Someone is polite, smiling, kind and even sings, someone can easily be rude in the best traditions of Soviet vegetable shops. 2 uncles were especially distinguished in cooking and distributing scrambled eggs and pancakes. I personally witnessed the disgusting scenes they performed. Sometimes I just wanted to throw their own scrambled eggs at their faces. Hama and cattle.
But in general, for the unpretentious, tolerably, although problems are visible.
Animation and entertainment.
This is the weakest point of the hotel. It's very boring there. During the day, animation is only for children, which one - I don’t know. In addition to beach joys, there is absolutely nothing to do there. All gaming - at a minimum. A volleyball field with cracked pits, broken-down ping-pong to the limit. A short dull animation in the evening, a disco, which you can’t even call a disco, and at 23.00 - lights out in the camp. You can't even find fresh water. Life is turned off. Only the lobby bar is open, more like a cafeteria in an 80s deli. There is never anyone there. There are 2 Russian channels on TV. Wi-Fi only in the lobby, often does not work. MTS is not caught at all, Bee-line is excellent.
So, if you do not intend to fall in a layer after 11, take care of your evening and other leisure time yourself. Bring books, magazines, MM players (Tulpan TV connector), etc. Make romantic and other acquaintances on the beach, in the dining room. Sometimes in the evening the neighboring hotel Catching up a little pleases, you can go. In general, sadness.
Especially about excursions.
"Fuckers buy in hotels" - says the inscription in pure Russian on one travel agency in Alanya. In principle, it is. E. can be bought at the hotel, but it is possible nearby in travel agencies. The difference in price from our Pegasus is about 2 times.

The main trouble of all e. - diligently drag you to some "best" stores. Where, of course, everything is the same, but more expensive by 5-10 (real figure) times than you can easily find yourself. You have to be a complete idiot to buy something there. The extra 1.5 hours of winding, when the forces end anyway - it's unpleasant. I bought e. , with a firm promise from the manager that there was no shopping - they brought it to 2 stores. Ancient Alanya can be perfectly explored on your own. There, on the spot, you are taken both to the fortress and by sea, the savings are tangible.
Outcome.
Solidly a 3* hotel, with some 4* "extras". There are a few shortcomings, but they are tolerable. The main thing that spoiled the rest - in the evenings it was very boring.
