The resort of Bodrum is like a big Yalta, all the coastal provinces were included here, in one of them our hotel BLUE BODRUM 3 * was located.
This is not the first time in Turkey, but they have never been in the top three, it’s still interesting how it is there, but accordingly, with the system everything is included!
The hotel itself, as far as we understood, consists of two parts - old and new. The old building, which apparently has been rebuilt several times in its history, has slightly larger rooms, with good service life, natural furniture, painted with natural colors.
The new building in which we lived surprised us with its functionality and strange, in our opinion, different sizes of rooms.
Our room with all the cases was 10 meters away. The furniture was all new, the air conditioner worked fine. The shower cabin impressed us with its bells and whistles. The telly worked fine, considering that all the channels there were Turkish.
The contingent is ours and the Turks.

Yes, the hotel was full. There were really not many people, there were practically no queues at the bar, given that the bartenders knew our people by sight and poured them without sparing.
Their all-inclusive system provides 3 meals a day with a snack after dinner with their pastries.
In general, the hotel has two bars (as indicated on the website), the second bar does exist, but it did not function. Drinks - water, you can pour coffee yourself at any time, since access is free, beer and other carbonated drinks at the bar. From alcoholic - wine, white, red, vodka, gin. Everything was poured into glass! We did not see disposable tableware.
As for diversity, write - I'm a meat eater, but, to my surprise, I had enough of everything. Meat dishes were replaced by well-cooked fried vegetables, which were always in short supply. In general, there was enough of everything during the meal. As soon as some product ended, they immediately brought the next tatsyu.
The staff is quite friendly, even friendly.
What was surprising was the discrepancy with the data indicated on the Internet: the rooms are not at all the same size, except that they were blocked off, no sports fields such as volleyball and even table tennis.
It upset, except that the sea with its coolness, if not cold - sometimes it could be up to 24 *. The water is cold, but clean.
There is no environment around the hotel. In the evening there is almost nowhere to go. But there was time to admire the sea.
Now about the least pleasant. When we arrived after lunch (6 people), and this was our first day, it turned out that we had nowhere to settle. After strange negotiations between our Tezturovites and the owner of the hotel, we (2 people) were nevertheless settled after 17 hours. The rest, for one night, settled in another place, though we had dinner together at the hotel. The owner himself took them to the lodging for the night, and in the morning delivered them with things to the hotel. But it turned out that in the morning they had nowhere to settle. The issue was resolved for some after breakfast, for others after dinner, given the second day of their stay of seven.

On the same day as we, a woman arrived for one local room, so she received, like a pantry - without windows, there was one door, which she opened at night because of stuffiness, since all valuables were handed over to the reception. True, then she was moved to a good room. I do not think that such incidents greatly affected the rest, but the sediment remained, the picture “Sailed” the picture “Unexpected”.
We got the impression that our rooms were simply sold to the Turks. Because of this, our girls called the hotel fucking bodrum. Perhaps there is something in this.
Yes, perhaps Turkey has already outlived its usefulness, at least for us. Perhaps between price and service, you need to choose other countries and (or) more expensive hotels, where the attitude towards tourists is more acceptable.
And we had a great vacation! Strong C grade
