Hotel ratings by criteria:
I must say right away that the hotel has new owners / tenants, because old impressions can be considered a property of history. And now the hotel is called differently - just Lamer. We deliberately went here, because we consider this option to be the best for a holiday with a child. The territory of the hotel is small, but not cramped at all, one might say - compact. The hotel itself is located almost in the village of Guynyuk, close to shops, travel agencies.
When you leave the hotel towards the sea - you immediately find yourself in a small park, very well maintained (respect to the gardeners! ). Further - the territory with two pools (small - with water slides), a snack bar and a pool bar. A few steps - and you are already on the beach with a pier. But to take a normal place, it is advisable to come before 7 o'clock in the morning. In the morning I am a clean and calm sea, and the sun is gentle and not burning. There is a toilet near the snack bar, cleaned regularly. On the beach there are changing cabins, which is very convenient.
By number. We lived in Block C. Quite clean, the room was standard and without problems. Linen and towels were changed daily. The bar is replenished with juices and water on the day of arrival, then only water. TV - with 5-6 Russian TV channels. BUT! The balcony overlooked the area of ​ ​ the main restaurant, and in the evening the smoke and smells of the barbecues were pretty strong. But this is nonsense compared to the constantly humming fans of the neighboring hotel's utility block, so you can't sleep with an open balcony.

By food. In my opinion - between satisfactory and good. Meat - chicken and beef in different forms, as well as cutlets. There is also fish - fried and steamed. All kinds of side dishes, salads, cakes, sweets. In the morning - scrambled eggs / scrambled eggs, donuts and pancakes. There are yoghurts in assortment, with roots and flakes. Wine - white is frankly trashy, and red looks quite acceptable against its background. Beer - normal "Efes". Juices - diluted concentrate. From the fruit, nothing seemed acceptable (sour and green), with the exception of watermelons, which were constantly in the morning-afternoon-evening and of good quality. During the day, a Turkish woman bakes gozlime cakes by the pools, with different fillings.
For drinks. Only local production, and mostly strong. BUT!! ! The lobby bar has baileys, and martinis, and malibu, and campari, and tequila - but only if you ask. They are not hidden, but they are not advertised either. So demand!
In the pool bar, the choice is more modest, and most importantly, the ice machine did not work, and without ice, the cocktails are warm and nasty.
The staff is quite friendly - and Gulya from the reception, and Tatyana from the guest relation, and the waiters in the restaurant - polite and very fast working, which is why there was almost no problem with the tables.
Animation is rather weak compared to the previous period. And the animators are smaller, and the program is more modest. But this is compensated by the invitation of groups of dancers to the evening show and live music in the evenings. Well, the artistry of the animator - the Turkish woman Zina. And the good work of children's animators - the child was satisfied.
AND NOW - ABOUT SPOONS OF TAR. I was shocked by the news that the a la carte restaurant was paid. The lack of (from the word "completely") ice cream and ayran (! ) caused bewilderment. Agree - to live in a 5 * all-inclusive hotel - and go for ice cream and ayran to a nearby store - is somewhat strange. Disgusting internet - just next to reception and poor quality. I remember that every year in the reviews they wrote that the absence of hours near the pools / beach creates great inconvenience. They don't exist. . .
New tenants save on a la carte, ice cream, ayran, and the Internet. There were fish with a smell in the restaurant, and the same foul-smelling chicken wings. I don’t know how much the hotel owners saved on these services, but the hotel’s image was clearly spoiled.
But in general, you can characterize the hotel as "all-inclusive", but very, very budget. From this and proceed if you consider this hotel as a potential place to stay.
