Surprisingly, there is not a single complaint about the hotel, everything went like clockwork:
1. We arrived at midnight, settled us immediately without question, even fed us. The room is just fire, a double bed (instead of two shifted mattresses, as it happens), the air conditioner works, the water is without interruption, without blockages. In general, the renovation is fresh. There is also a wardrobe in the room, it has a full-length mirror, a huge mirror on the wall, 2 bedside tables, a table, an armchair, and a chest of drawers by the mirror. The balcony is tiny, but it's enough to dry things. Everything is clean, bathroom with shower, very spacious. Shampoo, soap and shower gel are provided.
2. A shuttle takes you to the beach. Own beach number 15 is far from the hotel, but it is free. Minus - the entrance to the sea. From this side, the sea is very worried and throws stones. Therefore, we preferred another one, we went to the other side of the cliff, there is also a free sandy beach (if you are OK to lie on the sand or have your own umbrella) or for 45 lire you can buy sun loungers with an umbrella and get high. There is complete calm, in the morning you can see how the ships go to sea.

3. The food is just super. Breakfast example: oatmeal (milk with seeds, I really liked it), boiled eggs, scrambled eggs, pancakes with topping, cheeses, sausages (I didn’t try it), sausages, salads, a lot of greens, watermelons, melons . . I don’t remember everything, it was enough for me and porridge : ) For lunch there is always soup, several options for the second, pasta, rice, french fries, vegetables or stew, turkey, veal, beef, chicken, fish, too, every day. Meatballs, meatballs, sauces, desserts. . . Most importantly, no one limits, as in Egypt, you take as much as you need. Dinner is about the same. The waiters are very nice and smart, offer drinks. Even in the dining room classical music plays, instrumental or jazz, much nicer than the neighboring hotel.
4. Animation is present, but small. A singer came twice with covers (since we were 9 days old, we caught him 2 times) and a woman with oriental dances. Any animation ends with a "lottery". They offer to win a trip to the leather and fur hangar. And if you don't want to, then watch the defile of down jackets by the pool : ) Fortunately, it does not last long, you can safely nibble on a watermelon or dessert, washed down with a cocktail.
5. The hotel area is reduced to a pool with sun loungers and a bar and the building itself. Since this is not a resort, but a city hotel, this is logical. The main plus is not a single child. Rest without splashes-squeals is just a buzz. Around cleanliness and only pleasant sounds.
6. There are no questions to the administration either, they speak English at the reception, the administrator Alina speaks Russian. There was a question about the tour, she helped us as best she could. No problem extended the room for 3 hours, as we had a late flight. Cleaning is unobtrusive, no one asked for tips (again, as in Egypt), everyone is polite and courteous.
7. Well, just life hacks about the city. As I said, the sea is more pleasant from the side of the embankment (where the yachts are). In Turkey, I strongly advise you to look into Migros, this is a local supermarket. You don't have to pay for many products. (Prices as in Belarus approximately). And you can also change money there: buy a change, give $ 20 and get change in local lira. It is more comfortable.
Cosmetics and household chemicals are sold in Eve and Gratis, the prices are excellent.
Full of defacto, waikiki, mido shops, even some kind of outlet at the end of the city. Can be reached by bus 2B
You will always wake up at 5 am. Because it is at this time that the first call to prayer sounds, and mosques are everywhere here, the main thing is not to get scared on the first day, it is very similar to an air raid alert)

And I would like to tell you about one travel agency. which offers excursions in Turkey. It is called Lena and Kemal. If you leave the hotel to the right, walk 100 meters and cross to the other side of the street, then you will find him among the shopkeepers (make no mistake, there is a huge sign We speak Russian). They sold us a tour to the canyon (where we really wanted to), and then they simply didn’t take it. Their phones did not answer, viber too. An hour later, we got through on WhatsApp to find out that they were very sorry, but the driver picked up other people along the way and now they can’t help us in any way, except to take us fishing in the afternoon. Naturally, we came to this miserable office, took the money and heard that "This is the norm, what are you so worried about, it's just a mistake. " It doesn’t fit in my head, what you need to think, so that there is such a mess. Everything would be fine, but it was the penultimate day before departure and there was nowhere to reschedule the trip. Therefore, I warn you and add photos of these irresponsible citizens
Be sure to ride the cable car, the views are amazing. It is best to go uphill around 6-7 pm, so you will get a super photo in daylight, and you will go back and see the city burning with lights, it is mega-stunning, the cabins are illuminated, the sunset...
