The hotel is excellent, and the rating is 4 - for some points that are not so important together - but you have to be objective. Much has already been written before me, I join everything good... I add nuances. The hotel does not have shampoos and soaps - only liquid for hands. The electricity system in the room is energy efficient. therefore, we must remember: while you are not in the room, the refrigerator does not work and the phone does not charge. There are air conditioners in every room, but some have to turn them on through a call to the reception : ))) I called at any time of the day - everything is OK, but at first I was surprised : ))
For a good room, a bribe of $10 is expected, and some are bred for $10 per person. In general, this is one - "Russian-speaking", balding such - also cunning. The rest seemed much more sincere and simpler. In the evening, they do not obsessively offer drinks - once they ask for a rest and calm down... we must pay tribute - only their compatriots do not order them... super sweets! food is good. Salads got sour a couple of times... but you just don’t eat them, you can express your “FE” - they will understand. you don’t need to rake a lot - it’s better to go and get it later. And then I saw how on the first day the girls scored 2 cups of coffee at breakfast (as a result, 4 on the table%) - you can go to get as much as you like. You can come a second time : ))) silently endure : )
The staff teaches "bon appetit" in different languages ​ ​ - touching.

Yes, about harassment - on the street they call out single women and pester them to get acquainted mercilessly - you strictly reject older foreigners, ignore arrogant Turks (you walk silently past) or smile at cute Turks and also walk past - without remorse... and everything is OK.
You need basic knowledge of English - the staff does not understand Russian. And the cleaners only understand gestures : )
You can get stuck in the elevator, especially at night and early in the morning - then call from the phone to the same reception : )
Rooms should be taken from the left side of the hotel, the lower - the quieter. And if you want a sea view, you get the nightlife.
The sea is good. you can carry a little bit of bread and feed the fish in the morning. As the beach caretaker told me - from 15.07 to 15.08 - the hottest days, and everyone sleeps during the day - it's impossible to walk... +50.
Go to the fortress of Marmaris - you will find the entrance in the back streets - 3 lira and fresh impressions : )) I am addicted to olive soap - handmade and branded - but you have to bargain. Lokum by weight in a supermarket is 5 times cheaper than lokum by weight in a store, the taste is the same, but in boxes - a miserable likeness. I also recommend figs in nuts in the supermarket - such balls, and sweet cucumbers - we call them. Beer is normal, nothing. And the cocktail in the restaurant in the center seemed rather weak - i. e. "diluted" : )))
From the statue of Ataturk on the left side of the road - Waikiki store (in front of the supermarket), across the road - Garage store - good Turkish clothes. Opposite the palm alley - not reaching Atatü rk - Nokk's shoe store.
Big supermarket Tansas - the cheapest. Try there sweets by weight. I brought water to the hotel, 5 liters each...
Restaurants on the embankment near the fortress are more expensive. but the view from the terraces at night is superb! I drank Turkish coffee in a bar in the wall of the fortress - I recommend it.

Shops and festivities - until 12.00. Night entertainment - discos - from 12.00 : )) Turtesse offers free night excursions on a boat - but the guide does not always mention this - we had a very cunning, to an unpleasant "working" girl, breeding tourists on excursions. Survey free - forced shopping. You can also visit it at the end of the tour. knowing the situation with prices and assortment.
On Thursdays and Sundays - a food market behind the big Tansas in the yards - you can heat up good vegetables and fruits.
You have to trade everywhere! it is desirable to know English in Marmaris.
I recommend this hotel and this city: )))
Yes, Internet in the lobby! free I think. . .
