Recently returned from the hotel and want to share my impressions. Flew from ALF TRAVEL OPERATOR, host of NEED TOUR. It took 2 hours to get to the hotel. There was a flight delay, we got to the hotel by midnight. We received the number immediately. We were offered to eat a night soup....like tomato paste diluted with water - after drinking some water from the cooler, we went to bed. I was vacationing with a small child and wanted a lower room, on the 2nd floor, but I got it on 5. I was free only at the pool, and it was noisy there. I wanted to change it the next day, but changed my mind - everything worked in our room, the furniture was new, the carpet was clean, the balcony overlooked the quiet side, where the mountains were, everything in the room worked. The mattress is a little hard for me, but I got used to it in 3 days.
Only the elevator strained, it was stuffy and slow, both elevators worked, one of them was repaired for half a day, after which it worked normally.
Cleaning was daily, as well as shampoo / soap replenished, towels were changed when I put them near the sink, the bed was changed 2 times.

Food - we had enough, + 3 kg extra as always brought ((.
In order not to get bored with food, they took something different every day. I read that they complained about cold pasta - you won’t please everyone if they were cooked in front of you, there would be a queue, you wouldn’t like it, but come and take it. In the morning there were always pancakes, scrambled eggs, gozleme, donuts, sometimes several people were in line, and mostly for pancakes. Yes, as already mentioned, vegetables and salads are similar, but you can choose. A lot of salty cheeses, from baking 1 type of bun. For lunch and dinner, there were often offal, but besides them there was fish, chicken meat with vegetables, delicious grilled chicken fillet, chicken pieces, there was shawarma for the Turkish evening. Of the fruits for 12 days, there was only watermelon - sweet, tasty, but the kidneys were cleaned)). Sweets are the same, sometimes there was a delicious chocolate cake, a lot of jelly and mousse. Not to overeat - that's it. The coffee machine often broke, went for drinks in the lobby. From alcohol there was beer, vodka, crayfish, gin, wine. From 14 to 16 every day there was ice cream: 3 types - white, pink, chocolate - everyone had enough. The snack bar had french fries, spaghetti, burgers, nuggets, vegetables.
We walked 10 minutes to the sea along a flat path along the Ganita hotel. The entrance is rocky, the child swam in Crocs, I'm in special slippers, everything is fine. The bar on the beach was open until 5 pm, as was the toilet, which is not very good. On the left there is Ganita Pier, I went in, no one drove me away.
By the way, that hotel is overcrowded with tourists, and on our small stretch of beach they took away the sunbeds of our hotel ((they have the letter H or Nedef written on them), well, many swim in our territory. By the way, one evening, when we were walking from the beach we walked around the territory of Ganita, yes, there are a lot of people there, and they said that the rooms are terrible with mold. But at the reception they have air conditioning, but not in our hotel (.

I asked at the reception if it was possible to visit other hotels of the Nedef network, to which they told me that it was not, for this they even changed the bracelets in ours to green, and they are pink, because. from our constantly left in 5 *. We did not check whether they would let us in or not, it would have been closer and not so hot, we could have walked, but people said that they were not allowed in, because. that hotel is overcrowded and so, there was a group of tourists who spent a day in our hotel on suitcases, then demanded to take them to their 5 * that they would be waiting for their rooms there.
The animation at the hotel was weak, but on June 28 a new animator Taha appeared, with him it became more fun and mini disco and evening shows. In the morning there is exercise and water aerobics - very weak, there is water polo, darts appeared.
There is no children's club - only a ruined house, a children's area, as well as food, the restaurant also does not. There is a playground, but we never played there.
I can't say that this is a bad hotel. We had a good rest, the child was satisfied - there were water slides, there was a mini-disco, we swam in the sea, there are also french fries and ice cream.
Considering that we paid 800 euros for 12 nights for the tour, I think that the hotel is good for its money. My sister is now resting on the Arabat Spit for the same money, but without travel and meals...
I probably would not have chosen this hotel for a vacation with my husband, but it was good for me and my child. Another familiar family rested with us - they also liked everything.
Wi-fi worked poorly at first, then 100 people left and it was possible to communicate normally via viber and send photos / videos, so my husband was always aware of our vacation (thanks to him for it).
