Hotel ratings by criteria:
The hotel matches the photos on the website. Located inside the ancient city (very beautiful place). To the tram stop 3 minutes walk (walks in 15 minutes). There is also a center with a large number of banks where you can change the currency. The area is not cheap. The nearest beach is really 150-200m, but it's in a straight line. You need to get to it winding through the old streets 500m. The beach is paid -8 lire. But if you take a tram for 5-7 minutes along the coast, then you get to the city (free) beach. It has a fresh water shower. There are no toilets or changing rooms. The beach is "relatively" clean (come across cigarette butts). The coast is not fenced, as in the Crimea, not divided into sections. Then there are paid beaches - 2 lira, but for them you will get a sun lounger. We rested in October 2008. The water is clean, there are practically no people on the beach. Weather-gold (air +27, water +25).
The rooms in the hotel are different (some are not very large, some are huge). You can change it if you want and pay extra. Beautiful rooms, photos of which are located on the site, cost 130-150 lire per day (if you book on your own, without an agency). We came across a room with a balcony, which compensated for the first not very good impression (the specific oriental aroma of jasmine + some incense disappeared after a day). Appliances (hair dryer, refrigerator, air conditioning) work properly. The staff is attentive and polite without tips. Rooms are cleaned every day, bed linen and towels are changed 2 times a week. There are no Russian-language channels, only German-Turkish-French. The staff does not speak Russian. Communication in German or English. The hotel is very quiet, almost only retired Germans settle.
The food is not varied (buffet in the morning, first or second in the evening). Of the meat was 2 times chicken, and the rest of the semi-finished burgers. There were no fruits at all. But they can be bought in abundance and inexpensively in street shops. Prices are cheaper than in Kharkov. Drinks (coffee, tea) at breakfast and dinner are charged. When you check out, the receptionist will tell you the amount. You can rent a safe.

In general, if you are able to independently organize your vacation or you need to enjoy the silence, the hotel is what you need.
