Мармарису-ДА! Отелю- нет)) Marmaris - YES! Hotel - no))

So, on May 5.2019 at 7 am, they brought me to the hotel, which the guide and driver did not immediately find))) They took me on foot from the road, we wandered for 10 minutes along the embankment in search of a hotel on the "first line". He got lost somewhere between the embankment, behind the cafes between the houses) Found . . and that's good)
I read reviews, saw photos of the hotel and its location, so I was not surprised or upset) It was funny, rather)
At the reception I was met by a young man. I thought he didn’t speak Russian at all, but no . . He understands well, answers, and what he didn’t understand, he wrote through a mobile translator. Well done) Of course, there are no rooms in the morning, he sent me for breakfast.

Breakfast was served at 8 am. Here, of course, I hung a little on the threshold... Canteen) I saw a mountain of greenery on one side and soy sausage with cheeses on the other. I almost screamed "yoke" when I saw so much greenery)))) I was in a good mood, I just laughed. Some jams, cereal, boiled eggs and all)
Well, even a coffee machine and a water cooler. Nicely)
The beginning of the season, there were few people in the hotel, almost no children, few young people.
Hotel territory:
Swimming pool for adults, fenced-off knee-high mini-pool for children. Sunbeds, umbrellas by the pool. "Bar"-stand in the corner. A little green. Palm trees in the courtyard, where the dining room is, some greenery, trees at the entrance. Well, that's it.
Nutrition:
Very modest. Don't get better, that's for sure!
Breakfast from 8-10. Unchanged boiled eggs, sometimes sausages, sometimes scrambled eggs with peppers and tomatoes - from hot, a lot of greens, soy sausages, cucumbers, tomatoes, olives, olives, very tasty (! ) Several types of cheeses, cereals, bread, jams, honey, butter. Tea, coffee from the machine.
Lunches from 12.30-14. Puree soups (very good, I ate with pleasure), for hot nuggets, chicken 2-3 times, fish 1 time (it is impossible to eat). There was never meat. For garnish-pasta or rice or 1 rustic potato. Well, incomprehensible salads dressed with what, cucumbers, tomatoes, unchanged greens.
Fruit gave 2 times - whole apples and oranges. Then, as the people increased, they did not give fruit at all. But desserts were added (from semolina), jelly, etc.
Snack 16-17 Dry cookies 2-3 types.
Dinner 17-21. Same as lunch. Without meat (chicken a couple of times does not count), some meatballs from soybeans or something.
Actually, I've never been hungry. I ate my fill. I fell in love with cheeses, honey and arugula. I drank plenty of coffee with semolina pies... and did not add a single kilogram in 7 days)))) A record for me. Usually, after Turkey, +3 kilos happen . . but not here) But there was not enough meat and fruit.
Thanks to the chef. He tried. Smiling and friendly. I tried my best) It was tasty at times)) But without frills)
Number:

A modest Soviet sanatorium)) Old furniture, TV, conder, bedside tables, mirror. Built-in wardrobe. The bathroom has been renovated and the balcony has been painted. The plumbing is old, the shower head is new)) The curtain sticks to the body, there is little space in the shower, but you can get used to it. Cracked and slightly leaky sink. And for a couple of days there was such a terrible smell of sewage, I thought I would die))) At least put on a gas mask. Then he disappeared.
There is no refrigerator. There is a hair dryer. In the bathroom, only 1 bar of soap and toilet paper. Shampoo, no gel.
Bed linen is clean. And here are the towels. They put me dirty, stale. Asked to change. Changed to the same.
Tip - take your own towel at least for the face.
I didn't dry them with towels at all.
The air conditioning, the TV did not work, the lock on the balcony door broke. . everything is old. But . . they fixed everything at the first request, quickly and with a smile.
The view from my room was on the dining room and the sea, the mountains (between the palm trees). Not bad) My room is 1206 on the 2nd floor. Cool lift)
The hotel has very friendly and good staff. Both the cook and the waiters at the reception are very good and helpful people.
Beach.
I don't have my own. The sunbeds belong to the cafe. The weather was overcast, so no one approached us and we didn't pay anything. Later, when it was sunny, they came up with the menu and asked for at least something to order. Juices, water 10 lira (110r) or 2 dollars are asked for a sunbed and 1 dollar for an umbrella, beer 25 lire and then on the menu.
If you go to the embankment and go left from the hotel to the monument to Ataturk, there is a free beach without sunbeds, you can lie on a towel.
The hotel left an ambiguous impression. Diligent staff, but the hotel itself is not very) For unpretentious tourists. There is nothing for children to do there. Music at night sounds like this from all the cafes))) The city is not for a relaxing holiday.
The hotel has a great location!! ! 10 minutes walk to the center.
I came to watch Marmaris and walk along the 16 km embankment. Every day we walked 15.000 steps)))
I love this wonderful city! From the promenade, mountains, sea, nature and views around. Shops, cafes, yachts.
I will definitely come back to Marmaris. Fell in love with him. I discovered another Turkey for myself (Alanya, Antalya, Side - I left completely different impressions).

But I'll choose another hotel... More comfortable))
