Дешево и сердито Cheap and cheerful

A hotel from the category "Cheap and cheerful", if there is not enough money in your pocket, but you really want to go to the sea, then you can choose this option. Perhaps the most economical hotel in Marmaris, which naturally affects the quality.
We rested here with a young man for two weeks (June 12-25), we agreed in advance that we were going with a positive attitude, therefore our review is about the same, more good than bad. Moreover, other hotels in Marmaris offer only 7 days of rest for this price. Nice bonus.
We were put in a room on the first floor. I don’t know what lives in the rest, but judging by the reviews, everyone is settled there, especially Russian tourists. The rooms are certainly not a fountain. Old shabby furniture, a TV of retirement age, a wardrobe and a bed, the usual set. It was important for us: a comfortable mattress (there is one), minimal cleanliness (wet cleaning every day, bedding changed 4 times in 2 weeks, towels - once every 2-3 days, this is enough), hot water (it was without interruption), soundproofing (and this is not, it is terrible, you can hear every rustle and word of the neighbors).

Internet is paid ($8) and very weak, there is no point in paying for it. We were practically not at the hotel, so we hung out online from the beach during the day (we chose beaches with affordable Wi-Fi), in the evenings, if we needed to go online, we went to any cafe on Bar Street or the embankment, took a cocktail and received a password from the internet.
By the way, its beach is far from the hotel, it takes about 10 minutes by bus, once a day free transport departs from Irmak, which takes tourists to the beach and back (in the morning - about 9-45, in the evening from the beach - 17-00). In this case, you miss lunch, apparently this transfer is designed for this.
We went once, but we returned in trouble on a regular bus (with an orange stripe for 2.5 lira per person), and we didn’t go there again. It is better to choose any of the paid beaches (they are 5-7 minutes walk from the hotel), order a drink and relax as much as you need.
The sea, of course, is beyond praise here, it was for the sake of it that we went to Marmaris, the water is clean and transparent at any time of the day.
The hotel has its own small pool and one slide. Who wants to take a chance and go here with children - I do not advise, this hotel is not intended for them. No entertainment and no proper food. The pool smells strongly of chlorine in the morning, but is clean, leaves and debris are cleaned regularly. The slide works 1-2 hours a day according to an unknown schedule without any regularity.
At 22-00, a free bus departs from the hotel, which takes tourists to the famous street of bars, which the animators do not get tired of reporting several times a day. Back - about 3-00 at night, enough time for a walk. But they only take us to certain clubs, we visited the first one, then we slowly slipped out of there, walked on our own and approached the bus by X-time.
I will say this about food - do not overeat. I used to think that I really like fresh vegetables, by the end of the holiday I almost hated them. A minimum of variety, from meat only chicken cutlets, chicken legs and bony fish. Side dishes - rice, pasta, sometimes potatoes. Decide for yourself whether such a menu will be enough, in our opinion - it's normal.

Alcohol - beer, wine from the weak, gin, rum, crayfish - from the strong, we mixed them with cola, it is quite possible to drink. The bartender pours as much as he wants, we came up for beer 3-4 times in a row and didn’t notice disgruntled looks in our direction.
The hotel guide is a very peculiar woman, at the first meeting she said that excursions can only be bought "today and right now", and then we understood why. For the entire rest, we didn’t see her anymore, information about the departure appeared only late in the evening (the flight was in the morning).
All excursions were ordered on the website on the Internet from the Daisy Tour company, the order was sent the day before departure, then they simply reported the room number and that’s it, no extra gestures. Ephesus-Pamukkale, who has not been, I definitely advise a trip for 2 days, but if you go with a guide Alena, these will be the best days of rest. It was very interesting to listen to her, the time flew by unnoticed. Previously, we just went to Pamukkale, but from Kemer, and so, this is heaven and earth, almost 90% of the tour depends on the guide! We also went on a jeep safari and rode a yacht around the Aegean Islands, very beautiful places and incredible landscapes. As a gift, they also received a visit to the water park.
As you can see, the hotel has its pluses, but the two biggest ones and the main one: a very reasonable price and a very convenient location, where everything is at hand and within walking distance. We returned happy.
