First, about the cons: not 5 * at all, maximum 3+ is very dirty and boring.
The cleaners come every day, but I doubt it very much about cleaning, if you accidentally stumble upon them, you can force them to fill the refrigerator with what it’s supposed to, put soap accessories in the bath and clean up where it’s supposed to. The dishes in the dining room are dirty and need to be cleaned.
There is practically no animation, there is nothing to do at all in the evening, vacationers entertain themselves, apart from small performances after dinner, at the level of amateur performances of a peripheral recreation center.
The room is not bad, but again, the curtains are stained, there are stains on the chair......

The food, in my opinion, is normal, everything was enough for everyone, something delicious, something not very good, I was pleased with a large number of delicious cheeses, very tasty olives and olives, a lot of fresh vegetables and herbs. The coffee is disgusting, instant from the machine, but delicious teas in bags. The service staff, despite the fact that in general the guys are not bad, they are absolutely not competent in their work, it is felt that there is not enough strong leader.
Leaving for an early excursion, they asked to collect breakfast, took out two hot dog buns in which there was a leaf of the day before yesterday's salad, a slice of cucumber, a slice of tomato, and they even put a piece of sausage in one and it was appetizingly rewound with stretch! Even for 3 * it was too much....Three times they ordered a wake-up call to the room, of which only once they woke up on time, but this is also a question of the conscientiousness of the staff.
The hotel guide was completely incompetent in matters of interest to us, where to rent bicycles and how to get to Side, but shamelessly spent our time advertising their expensive excursions.
But all of the above did not spoil our vacation at all, since we are sane people and we understand that a hotel at the price of 3 * stars, and even not all, cannot provide 5 * service, so we were prepared in advance for various controversial situations.
Those basic criteria by which he got out justified themselves.
And now for the pros:
In our opinion, the location is excellent, the hotel is located in a forested area, between pine and eucalyptus trees, the air there is magical, plus the lack of infrastructure around it, makes this place really a resort, right on the shore of the lake around which there is a good promenade where you can ride in the evening bicycles that are rented on a small shopping promenade next to the hotel, but we don’t recommend buying anything there, everything is at least twice as expensive as in Side.
The sea is nearby, from the hotel gate, past the lake, immediately the beach, 5 minutes maximum, at a slow pace. very good, clean sunbeds were always enough, excellent canopy, there is a volleyball court, you can organize a game.
Snack bar at the entrance to the beach, there are always drinks, water, and until 4 o'clock you can have a snack, vegetables, fruits, a hamburger.

The hotel has a beautiful green large area where there are artificial reservoirs, walking paths, hedgehogs run, two large pools, two for children, and one with a slide and one more in the Spa, closed, but all of them without heating sunbeds by the pool are also enough, always enough
Near the hotel there is a minibus stop to go to Side 7-10 minutes, to Manavgat 10-15min.
In a word, if you are traveling to Turkey, not just to eat, drink and sit in a room, but for the sea, impressions and learning about the history and culture of this unique country, then this hotel is an excellent budget option with good food and location, anyway, you, wandering on excursions, in the hotel will be swoops.
A must to visit Cappadocia!
I want to note the excellent organization of all Turkish travel companies.
Excursions were booked through a contact in the excursion group in Side. They paid after the fact, impeccable organization, reliable information.
