We rested in this hotel in the first half of September 2019. The hotel went like a lottery on a budget. And now for the latest truth.
A big plus for the hotel is that it is close to the airport. But not as it says in the description of the hotel. At an average speed in the city, without traffic jams, we drove for 15-20 minutes. We were taken to the hotel around noon. We were immediately warned that we had to wait until 14:00, supposedly while the rooms were being cleaned. But during these two hours of waiting, a phrase sounded like a joke to other new arrivals: a competition for the best room and the best view from the room. But it is clear that this was a hint of a surcharge. No one was going to pay extra, everyone sat and waited exactly until 14:00.
Lunch starts at 13:00, so during the waiting time it was already possible to analyze the so-called "restaurant", we went there and from what we saw immediately the handles dropped. There is simply nothing to eat. From past visits, even meager fours, where the tables seem to be bursting with food, and we say that the food is bad there, then there is nothing at all. Even the table itself with food is 2 meters +2 meters and another 1.5. How many varieties of food can you imagine for a seven-story building. Fruit country, but for 8 days of stay, even no fruit, only watermelon.

I will return to check in the room. Finally, they gave the long-awaited key, on the second floor, room 208. We went into the room immediately, we need to check everything for a malfunction. We immediately noticed the handle of the double-glazed window on the balcony, which dangled a lot. We took a picture on the phone and immediately went down to the reception and showed it. But for all the days no one came to repair. On the fifth day, they noticed an air conditioner leak, right on the bedside table and on the floor, they also went and said, and no one did anything either. And judging by the appearance of the plinth on the floor, this air conditioner has been flowing for a long time, but nothing has been repaired. Well, in general, I can’t say anything bad about the room. The room seems to be clean. The shower is ok too. View from the window to the courtyard of the hotel, the pool. I recommend! Because on the other side there is a view of the road, the noise of cars and the same high-rise buildings, nothing else of interest. There is no view of the sea from any direction, it is simply not visible.
The hotel is located inside the quarter, from all sides, in my opinion, residential high-rise buildings. We open our suitcases, put on swimsuits and run to the sea. We immediately find out that the hotel's beach is somewhere far away, the hotel's minibus takes it to the beach at 9:00, and from the beach at 12:00. There are two flights because at one time everyone does not fit into this bus. Then, after lunch, they are also driven at 14:00 and back at 17:00. But since it was Saturday, on Saturday afternoons and Sundays they don’t take to the beach. Okay... We reconciled ourselves and ran to the city beach, walking at an average pace to it for 10-15 minutes. We came to the beach, immediately catches the eye dirty sand with small pebbles. Along the sea, the length of this city beach is 100 meters, borders, beaches, probably other hotels. Like I said, very messy.
You immediately understand the contingent, everything. There are no sunbeds at all, not paid, not free. There is no shower or toilet. According to rumors, I heard that you can anchor on a nearby beach for money, but they didn’t find out how much it costs. There is not even a faucet with water to rinse your feet from the sand either. Stray dogs run along the beach. Your towels, things, bags are not an obstacle for them.
Finally, Monday came and we went, it seems, like to the beach of the hotel. But it feels like it's just a rented piece of land near someone's beach. Two rows of sunbeds that you can only use and not those that are in the photo of the description of the hotel, which are like in the form of a bed. They are present, but those who look after the beach will not let you in. Presumably for a surcharge they can allow. And so the beach is well-groomed, there are few people. All amenities are present. The bar is paid (the cheapest beer is 20 lire). And the watching Turk is constantly walking, digging, either you pushed the sun lounger far, or you put the umbrella wrong. It was stressful. You can't bring your own food or beer to the beach. Why dont know.

Let's go back to the hotel. For all the days of the stay, the food was monotonous, there was nothing to gasp from. There is not even a traditional scrambled egg for breakfast. Once there were fried sausages. And just boiled eggs. Three types of sausage, two types of cheese. And the rest, it feels like the same thing as lunch and dinner. There is a bar in the hotel. From alcohol: beer (like normal), vodka (27 degrees), raki vodka, white and red wine (for an amateur), cocktails. Juices (such as Jupi, from the machine), tea, coffee. Coffee can be disgusting, and they didn’t understand how they make it in the machine in different ways.
Wifi is free in the hotel but not very strong. The rooms generally either work or not. For some reason, the iPhone constantly asked for password authorization. There was no such thing on Android.
Airplanes take off and land very low over the roofs of houses around the clock, because the airport is close.
There are very few outlets near the hotel compared to other places where we rested, and I would say everything is a little expensive. So better find markets or bazaars.
