The hotel is normal. I don’t understand those people who go to 3 stars, and then I start to blame the hotel. Guys, you initially give yourself a father in the fact that you are in 3 stars. Especially for such money. Now about the hotel itself.
1. Nutrition. There is practically no meat. And what is - soy. Chicken every day in a different interpretation. Liver and giblets every day.
A day later there were fried mushrooms very normal. One species of very bony fish. Then they fried it, then they stewed it.
Lots of salads and vegetables.
From desserts. Delicious puddings. The cakes are not tasty. Of the fruits, watermelon, and even then not all pieces are sweet.
You will not be hungry, but normal Ukrainian cuisine was very lacking.

2. Numbers. Small. Rooms in the first building are more decent than in the second. But we only spent a couple of hours a day in the room. We don't ride bikes there. There was plenty of room to sleep and change. Air conditioners hang incorrectly in the second building and blow on you all night. So stock up on something for a cold. Half the people in the cafeteria were constantly coughing. As already mentioned, the tray in the shower is not deep and there was constantly water on the floor. There was a foot towel next to the tray and it soaked everything up. For those who will try to settle in a room on the 6th floor - refuse. And it's so hot, and even the roof heats up in general, the steam room turns out. Many changed the number and no extra charge. The elevator only goes up to the 5th floor, and then you have to go up on foot.
3. Beach. The beach is pebbly. It's hard to get in and out without special shoes. There were enough beds for everyone. There were enough beach mattresses and towels for everyone. The sea can be called clean with a stretch. Algae floated. But the sea is very warm. Near our beach, under the pier, lived 2 large and beautiful turtles. When the weather was fine, they would swim out, but people would frighten them. The road to the beach took a maximum of 5 minutes. You need to cross the road. There is a traffic light there so that you should not be afraid that you will be knocked down. The main thing is not to cross the road in front of cars. Next, you need to walk along the path between two five-star hotels. There was no strong stench as they wrote before.
4. Pools. 2 large and 2 small paddling pools for the little ones. The water in the pools is warm. I wish it was cooler. There are few sunbeds by the pools. People occupied them with their towels from early in the morning. I woke up at 6 am and there were already towels on the sunbeds. The slide is good, but they turned it on for a couple of hours a day. From 15:00 to 17:00. Sometimes they turned on an hour earlier.
5. Animation. During the day, the animator Misha tried to entertain the people. For men there was water polo 2 times a day. For women water aerobics. It lasted a maximum of 10 minutes. Every day is the same. But for a change, you can kick your legs.

Evening animation. The children's disco started at 10 pm. Every evening is the same. The same music and the same movements for children. At 10:30 it was possible to dance and the rest. They also included Russian pop music (D. Bilan-Impossible is possible; A-studio-I'm flying away; Disco Crash-Malinka parties; Y. Shatunov-Childhood; S. Mikhailov; Factory-Romance, Arsen Petrosov _Kaifuem. after the holidays I just hated) and foreign. There were competitions: "Miss Hotel", "Mr. Hotel" and something else like that. Competitions are poor. Every evening animator Misha gathers people for a disco in Alanya (24:00-03:00). You can dance if you are satisfied that a bunch of Turks are looking at you like some kind of bait. Very unpleasant. There is a free disco not far from the hotel. There are some tourists out there. It's much nicer there.
6. System "all inclusive". They pour it without sparing (not even in every five they pour it like that). They give you several cups in your hands (I repeat, not in every five you will be given at least 2 cups in one hand). Poured from 10 am to 11 pm. You can score more and at least until the morning sit at a table and continue the celebration.
7. Trade. Lots of different shops around the hotel. On Wednesdays, a moving market comes near the hotel. Items are very, very overpriced. Traded very reluctantly. They can also offend. Turkish boors. But for almost all fruits, prices are 1 c. u. per kilogram. Everything is very tasty. Melons a dollar a piece. We took a melon about 5 kg for only 1 dollar. Very sweet. A couple of days lay so the aroma in the room was awesome.
8. Excursions. It is better to take nearby at the Hummingbird agency from Fai. Prices are much lower than tour operators. For comparison, Pammukale has an operator of 80 c. u. per person in Hummingbird - 40. Water park at the operator -55, in Hummingbird - 25.
9. Hamam. The hotel has a free Turkish bath from 10-12 and from 18-20:00. All procedures for an additional fee of 25 c. u. But I have something to compare and there is a Spa center 5 minutes drive from the hotel. It costs 28 USD. There is a much better and more complete range of services.
10. Room cleaning. Terrible. From the tourists it was only heard that something had been stolen from someone. Personally, we had nothing to steal. We put everything of value in the safe on the very first day. (Safe at the reception costs $2 per day). We just ate Turkish Delight and took a pack of cigarettes from the bedside table. Then they put up a do not disturb sign until the end of the holiday.
The hotel is not bad. There were a lot of young people in our race. We walked almost every night until morning. You just need to be aware that this is 3 stars and not show off and go with a good attitude. You eat by the sea and do not criticize the room and the hotel.

By the way, there are 3 supermarkets with fixed prices not far from the hotel. Ice cream and water is better to take there. Very affordable prices.
