The hotel is listed as 4 stars when searching with operators, Google maps 3, the hotel category is not indicated in the tour operator's voucher (most likely, so as not to make claims).
Rested from 23-30.05. 2021. The price of the tour (Tui) is about 12500 UAH. (460 usd), the next day the price fell to 10800 UAH. (400usd).
The hotel is not up to 4 stars. Local natives also live (there were no problems - adequate, friendly). Rooms at the hotel overlook the street, and on the path that goes from the pool to the lobby. In double rooms, external units of air conditioners from your and neighboring rooms go out to the balcony (if air conditioners are on, then it is hot on the balcony). In the rooms overlooking the walkway from 11 to 23 you can hear the music from the pool. In the rooms facing the street, which are above the kitchen, you can hear the stink of the garbage can + the smells of cooking. I recommend to negotiate for a three-five bed room higher.

We arrived at about 18, settled quite quickly (room 401, five-seater). Right next to the elevator (the elevator can only be heard in the restroom, it is not audible in the room), the hand straps are not silicone. The room is bright, the furniture is tired, with scratches, on the walls in a couple of places the paint is coming off, somewhere the wall is tinted. Beds with mattresses are normal. Linen is clean, but can be caught with small holes. TV 21 or 24 inches (only included to check the work). The air conditioner is old but working. Large wardrobe, table with a bedside table (inside the bedside table there is a refrigerator). There is a mirror. Safe is paid. There are three chairs and a table on the balcony. There are no drying lines. In our room, the curtain did not completely close the window, in the morning we had to wake up with the sunrise.
The room was not cleaned for the first two days (they didn’t even come in - the dollar remained), on the third day they twisted the towel (not even in a swan), on the rest of the days they just made the bed (they took the dollar). Water was given in 100 gram cups (3 pcs. ). In principle, you can collect from the cooler or buy in bottles nearby in the store.
The toilet button was stuck in the restroom. Pour a universal detergent for hair, hands, body, washing dishes : -). There are two towels per person in the room. Beach towels (rather for the shower than for the beach) killed and washed are issued against a deposit of $ 5, replacement 1. It’s a shame to use such houses even as a rag for the floor. Everywhere there is an advertisement for a hammam (it seems that soon advertising will be glued instead of wallpaper).
In the hotel, the corridors were cleaned only on the first floor, on all the rest, both the corridor and the area near the elevator were not cleaned. Very dirty (although they go around the rooms with a vacuum cleaner). Coating needs to be replaced (stained). The corridors are dark. Two elevators (nearby) near the reception, one of them with glass overlooking the parking lot. Mosquitoes are not chased, but they are.
Wifi 8 usd for 7 days, very weak. There are everywhere on the territory and on the beach. When changing the location, I had to reconnect (it showed that it was connected, but there was no Internet).
The territory is small. There is a tired playground. Cage with pigeons (reserve? )
The pool is good, the slides work on schedule. Sunbeds in the morning can be freely taken, closer to dinner there may not be any more places. Sunbeds that have seen life, but with a mattress and whole.
There are no more free sunbeds on the beach at 9-9.30. In the first days after 11 people began to move to the pool for drinks, places appeared, then a place could only be found by a miracle. The canopies have gaps open to the sun.

SEA. Walk one minute from the pool, another 1.5-2 minutes from the main entrance. Beach sand, when entering the water 1.5-2 meters of stones, then sand. The entrance is long, the sea is clean, due to the configuration of the coast it is 1-2 degrees warmer than in Alanya.
There are coffee machines in the lobby, restaurant, beach, near the pool (the bartender pours for some reason). Drinking water on the beach. Hall, restaurant, swimming pool - vending machines with water and UPI (it is impossible to drink - pure chemistry).
Alcohol: wine (red / white), vodka, brandy (take it, it's stronger and less body fat), cold beer (with sourness, I don't know who liked it there). The bar makes cocktails with local analogues of Sprite / Fanta / Cola.
Nutrition.
Breakfast: boiled eggs, talker, once they gave a rubber omelette. Fried soy sausages, french fries (no matter how many he took at any time he was cold / tasteless). Cheese / sausages, several salads, tomato / cucumber (not in the form of salad was given only for breakfast), jams in waffle cups.
Lunch: soup (one kind), rice, pasta, fries, salads (I sampled a couple of salads, one sour, very hard leaves from white cabbage), something stewed and fried vegetables (cauliflower, eggplant), 5.6 types of grass, chicken was given a couple of times.
Dinner: soup (one kind (we ate it twice from lunch), about the same as for lunch, but usually a couple of dishes and boiled chicken with potatoes (namely boiled, not stewed) were added). Mackerel was given once. Salad tomato / cucumber / onion /grass may not be enough Separately cook chicken (or something similar) on a baking sheet or on a shawarma skewer (often half-cooked to make it faster) Sometimes the chicken is already finished by 8. Once I tried to cook mackerel (almost all remained in the plates at vacationers).
Animation Entertainment: afternoon music by the pool, disco in the evening, there were some performances in the evening (saw a glimpse - not a fan). In the evening at 22.40 (the bar is open until 23) they poured only one small glass, although I asked for two.
To Antalya minibus 7-8 lire. Walk 20 minutes to the village. There are a lot of shops nearby, if you need something you can buy it.

Friends liked it, we didn’t (although we weren’t particularly picky, we rested in the private sector with amenities both on the floor and on the street).
And as Stirlitz was sure, the last phrase is remembered. Ordered a lunch box upon check out. In the box: a roll, a piece of sausage, cheese, margarine, jam and an apple that has been rotting for more than a day. You collected a maximum of 5-6 hours ago, put all the fresh and rotten apple.
