The hotel is new, well, almost. Of course, if you really look closely, you can see that they did repairs in haste, but these are trifles.
Rooms: 88 rooms, on 5 floors. Almost all of the same quadrature: 15-18 squares. One or two suites. All rooms have a balcony, on the balcony there is a clothes dryer, a table and two chairs. We were given a room with a sea view, without asking, and even more so, at no extra charge. The plus of the room is that it is very beautiful, the minus is noisy, because Nearby, literally under the window, there is a highway that does not stop around the clock. The furniture in the room is all new, but its minimum. Safe for free. Mini bar: 1.5 liter bottle of water, Pepsi and Mirinda. The water was replenished periodically. Tea, coffee (rarely replenished). Kettle, hair dryer.
Food: breakfast, to be honest, a bit poor. For lunch and dinner: one type of soup, fish, poultry, three types of side dishes, salads. From fruits: cherries, watermelons, plums and peaches. Coffee, tea and juices all the time. At 16:00 snack cookies. We had enough, the choice, though not great, but there is. They cook delicious. Hungry not only did not remain, but ate to satiety)))
Beach: A minute walk and you are on beach number 22. Entrance to the passages cut between the plates. After the slabs, not the depth, as many wrote, which scared me that the child would have nowhere to swim, but quite a small depth for me, with my height 160cm. it was shoulder-deep. Some go to beach number 19, they say there are already no plates there, but we tried to reach it in such heat, but did not reach it. And on the 22nd beach, an umbrella and a sunbed are cheaper, $ 3, and on the rest 4.
The pool is small, but because the hotel itself is not for a large number of people, the pool was free. Open until 18:00. There are no beach towels. Bar by the pool. Alcohol from 11 to 23:00.
WI: FI does not work badly: the room is rather weak, on the beach and in the hotel lobby it’s good, there were enough calls.
Gym on the 0 floor. There is also a hammam, from $25.
Geographically, the hotel is also conveniently located: in the evening you can walk along the beautiful embankment, children's playgrounds and Luna Park are not far away.
Almost always there is a Russian-speaking hotel employee at the front desk.
There is no animation in the hotel. The territory is very small, but it is in all hotels in this area. Hotel concept: for youth. There are very few couples with children.
P. S. This is a link to my video about this hotel: https://www.youtube.com/watch? v=ZFQS7DRkqV4&feature=youtu. be
There was Wi-Fi from the reception in our room.
The balcony is small with a partial sea view. The balcony overlooks the wall of the neighboring hotel, which is built back to back. Beneath us were the utility rooms of our and neighboring hotels, with very noisy air conditioners or hoods. At night I had to sleep with the balcony closed, and it was still noisy. This was the main drawback of the room. But the room was not heated during the day, because. direct sunlight practically does not fall into it.
Cleaning daily, towels and sheets changed once a week.
The food is quite varied and tasty. True, the first week of our stay, the hotel often “spoilt” at lunch some kind of burgers / nuggets instead of meat, but later they began to give chicken and cutlets. For dinner, there was always meat or chicken, once a week there was a large grilled fish (fried by the pool in front of vacationers : )).
The hotel operates on an all-inclusive basis, there are 2 bars - by the pool (at the hotel restaurant) and in the lobby. Non-alcoholic (cola, fanta, sprite) and local alcoholic drinks (raki, beer, wine, gin, vodka) + cocktails from the above are served free of charge. The lobby bar overlooks the promenade overlooking the promenade and the sea, but, unfortunately, this bar closed at 19-00. In the evening, only the pool bar worked, it was not interesting to sit there - around the fence and the walls of neighboring hotels. Evenings were brightened up by invited artists - once a week there was a Turkish evening with folk dances and belly dances, and once a week a musician with a guitar came to sing. Sometimes the waiters danced in the evening, trying to involve the audience : ) During the performance of the dancers / musicians, there was a lack of seats in the restaurant, people after dinner did not disperse, but remained to watch the show.
The beach is across the road, on the beach sunbeds and umbrellas are paid (5 lire per unit), there is a free area where people lie on the sand on their towels.
It takes 40-50 minutes to walk to the center of Alanya, you can take a bus (travel - 2 lira).
In general, the hotel is not bad, with the exception of a few shortcomings - noise in the room and a clogged drain in the shower.
but the hotel is not super at all, and what does it have to do with not 3 stars - but two
I advise you to choose some other hotel - higher with a star or even two, so as not to regret your visit to Turkey
but still, for its two stars, and only two no more - it fits.
As for the buffet, you won't go hungry for sure. Although the table can not be called diverse. There were a lot of vegetables and a regular watermelon. Beer and wine are diluted (but in a 5 * hotel - the same thing - they dilute it at the factory). For 2 weeks fed up with the same thing. But you're not coming here to eat. Moreover, when it's hot, you don't want to eat. The service is unobtrusive. Russian is not spoken (English and German). But they look into the mouth and explain everything on the fingers.
The beach is right across the street. Clean, sandy. I read that in the ranking of European beaches, Cleopatra Beach takes the 3rd place of honor. And rightfully so. By the way, closer to the city center, the beach is littered with bodies. And we always had free sunbeds. By the way, on the beach - paid (2.5 dollars). No animation. For 2 weeks, we saw the same show 2 times (fashion show of a leather clothing store) with a fire show and a live python. Well, so-so. You can watch it 1 time. If you want to be more incendiary - there are plenty of places where you can go. The hotel is quiet and calm. We rested well. There are plenty of tour companies nearby. In Melissa (hotel nearby) - Turkish bath. Highly recommend. Unparalleled pleasure! Moreover, it is possible at an agreed price. Have a good rest!
