I'm leaving today! Don't believe it's 5! Maybe for the Turks, who are the majority here, this is the top five. And so, 4 with a minus. The territory itself is terribly uncomfortable, two huge pools and that's it. Everyone is maneuvering between them along the wet aisles. No green territory. This is the first time I've seen this. The safe was tightly closed in the room, the kettle was leaking, there was no brush, sorry, for the toilet..
It was difficult to achieve anything. These cleaners nod like dummies and that's it. Mine is yours, don't understand... A boorish Kazakh woman or a Kyrgyz woman is sitting at the reception.Solves all problems with hysteria. There are a lot of people in this hotel. There are a lot of hijabs. In general, it is not comfortable..The food is hearty and clean. The beach is not conveniently located - from the sea line, not in width. I.e. there are few first rows with a sunbed. It was the fifth time in Turkey, but even in the 4th, I remember, everything was more convenient. I do not advise it very firmly!
The hotel is sold as a top five, do not think that you are eating at the top five and there will be no disappointments. We arrived at the hotel on October 20 at 20.30, dinner until 21 o'clock, but they refused to feed us. The receptionist said dinner was over. When asked to have dinner, they answered - tomorrow! Room 4325 is small, the bed is 135cm wide and 190cm long, there is no closet, there is an open uncomfortable rack for things. The view from the room is of the transformer box and the roofs of the sheds.
The road to the restaurant between the two pools is a narrow space between the sun beds, it is always wet. The restaurant itself is uncomfortable and ugly. Some people write that the food is 5+, I want to ask them, what do they usually eat?
The food is the same every day, what can you not have time to try? Chicken breast stewed with vegetables, turkey stewed with vegetables, mackerel stewed, and some balls of minced meat. Even on a Turkish night, there is nothing delicious. There were fireworks, there was an ice cream cake, and instead of the artists, the chefs and staff danced and sang! It's in the top five! The animation is terrible, the music is played once a week, the rest of the days bingo, karaoke and some contests are VERY loud. The only salvation from it is to leave the hotel territory, since in a room with a closed balcony you can not hear the TV on, but only the terrible screams of animators and drunk vacationers.
The beach is nearby, a narrow 20m strip, sun beds are close together, there are no mattresses, no tables. Other real fives have tables, mattresses, and the distance between the sun beds. Entering the sea, stones come across, pieces of slabs, when swimming, you can touch large stones.
The hotel should not be considered as a top five. There is nothing fivefold there. It's not beautiful anywhere, everything is very modest.
We are currently resting in this hotel from 08/24.21. A very dirty hotel. The rooms are poorly cleaned every other day.
The only plus is the delicious food in the main restaurant. Alcohol is full of g..O. there is a queue for ice cream, while you stand in line, ice cream has already run out. There are always queues at the beach bar and snack bar too. Turks mostly stay at the hotel (80%). They are generally like from a hungry world and such pigs, it's just terrible. There is no way to approach the pool at all, only Turks. The hotel is worth 3. I strongly do not recommend it
A great hotel for families with children. Everything is wonderful: both food and access to the sea, a sandy beach and a small but very cozy area with three pools, including one with slides. But a special respect for children's animation. The animators did a great job! I recommend the hotel, you will not regret it. We had a rest in the granddaughter from September 20 to October 01, 2019. In room 4225. Great room, lovely building 4.
We had a rest from June 27 to July 7, 2019 with the whole family, the room was clean, beautiful, cleaned every day!!! The food is varied, the animation is great, there are a lot of different activities throughout the day, solid entertainment! The beach is very nice, sandy, without pebbles, the entrance to the sea is gentle, there are algae in the water in small quantities, they are almost invisible! Not far from the hotel, 5 km away, is the ancient city of Side, where the temple of Apollo, the Amphitheater, etc. are located. historical buildings, they can be reached on foot within an hour along the landscaped promenade with a beautiful view of the sea!
Many people write in the reviews that the hotel is not bad, but as for me, the tin is full. Not only is the hotel old, the air conditioning barely works, but there were terrible smells in the room from it. At sea, you need to take sun beds in the morning, otherwise you will have to wait a long time for a free one. The territory of the hotel is small, so it is uncomfortable. Of the advantages, there is only a promenade nearby, you can take a walk and look at good hotels))). If it's cheap, then you can still go if the price is too high, then consider something better. Have a good rest, everyone. The review is purely my personal opinion and may not coincide with yours.
I am currently staying at this hotel on 08/20/2021. Declared as 5 stars. I paid 99,000 in 8 days. To say that I'm in shock is to say nothing. It's a solid three, NOT A FIVE. A very dirty hotel. Every day I hear complaints that rooms are not cleaned for several days. I hung up a tag with a request to clean the room on the 2nd and 3rd day of arrival. Only when I found the maids myself, only then they cleaned my room (on the FIFTH DAY) Noooo. How it was removed. We put new shampoos, swept the sand from the shower and that's it!!!!! Of course I went to catch up with them. Through Google, the translator said: you need to wash the floors, give clean towels, give toilet paper (it ran out on day 4, give tea, give water. The girls smiled and said, "OK," but they continued to do nothing. Somehow they realized that they needed to wash the floors, wiped the main passage with a dry mop and that was it. I asked for towels 3 more times. They didn'T give me toilet paper. They smiled, said "ok" again and walked away. A sample of my finished paper was taken and left near my door. I'll attach a photo . It's incredibly hot in the dining room. It's hotter than outside. Wild queues at the distribution. Now the food is served by the staff. To collect food, the child and I are in the distribution hall for about 40 minutes. I was already feeling sick from the heat, of course I don't want to eat in such a heat, the child hardly ate anything. I can barely do it either. The food is very greasy, even it would seem just rice or pasta and they float in fat. Watermelons, melons, tomatoes are not ripe. Sweets and pastries are delicious. We came to a cool room and after 20 minutes we were hungry. This is the first time I've seen such wild conditions in canteens. The distribution is very slow. If a Turk asks for food, he is quickly served, if a Russian speaker asks, they say "OK" and go about their business. Literally for 30 seconds, but it's every time. The building I live in is just creepy. I'll attach a photo. Smudges of paint, unwashed putty on the floors, terribly dirty elevator (walls, ceiling, floor are all stained) with traces of glue from (apparently) scotch tape, with rust on the lamps. Even on the plates with the numbers, this tape is very striking. The elevator often does not work. It's good that Russian men help to carry a stroller with a child to the 3rd floor. The buildings are arranged in a circle, with pools and an amphitheater in the middle. The music rumbles from 10 a.m. to 23 a.m. If your children want to sleep at lunch, forget about it. The overall impression is in 2 words. It's very dirty, everything is falling apart, the food is terribly greasy, eating in an incredibly hot room, money is charged as a five, in fact it should be charged as a three. See the photo - is it a five? It's creepy what dirt and service
The hotel is clearly not a 4*. Room cleaning started on the third day. They have nothing to add except shampoo. The bar sucks, nothing is possible to drink. Wi-fi is paid, 1000 per week. Upon arrival, we were not escorted to our room, they did not show us where everything was, they even forgot to give us bracelets. We had to find out everything ourselves and beg for it.
The chef is not bad. Asks vacationers to observe covid prevention measures (masks, gloves). There are good dishes, but mostly everything is bland.
Everything else is the work of the vacationers themselves. Russians are simply inadequate, take a sunbed and leave for the whole day. Rush to the dining room like the last time 🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️
We checked in on August 29, we were not fed. The time was 21.00, it was recorded for a full day. Downstairs, the bar was full of vipers. There are queues in the restaurant, it's hot. Kitchen workers at the distribution are talking on the phone, the chicken is not put on a plate, but thrown like pigs. A poor assortment of dishes. There is dirt in the corridors of the rooms, hair is lying around. Rooms are cleaned every 3 days. What the hotel owner is looking at. He should be ashamed of such an institution. We will never come here again and I will not advise anyone. We came to visit Turkey, and how we are greeted. It's a disgrace.
We stayed with my wife at this hotel for 7 nights in September. We drove through AnexTour. It takes almost 1.5 hours to drive from the airport, without stopping for 1 hour.
Hotel. The room is absolutely dirty (after the previous guests), as if it had not been cleaned. There is dirt, hair, sand everywhere. The towels are stained with old stains. All the windows and the bathtub are stained. It should be noted that the whole hotel is old, everything is patched up (recently renovated, but everything is stained with paint and putty), there is dirt in the corridors, a year-old dust on the windows, but we could have cleaned ... we were offered another room, but it was even dirtier there...we started complaining, and after the second complaint at the reception, the cleaner came to us with her boss and we pointed our finger at where to clean and how. It seems to have removed everything, but in 5 minutes. Is this cleaning? When asked about proper cleaning, the guide says that you should leave a tip. On the second day, the hose from the shower watering can broke, but it was repaired quickly enough. By the way, they clean every day, change towels, linen.
Food. There are no questions about food, everything is delicious, even very good. The breakfasts are a little sadder, but lunch and dinner are on top. Unlimited local alcohol in bars, they take mostly beer; they make tortillas with you, there are French fries for children. It was a Turkish night, just cool!!! One afternoon there were cakes and apple cocktails, very tasty! For lunch, dinner, and any festivities, there is a chef nearby who monitors everything, looks at what is eaten and what is not. He can shout at his cooks if they dig around for a long time and don't put the dish down. Because of covid, cooks give out everything, which may not be long queues; but they put not a little. The chef is cool here! I read in the reviews that the locals climb without waiting in line, it happened 2 times, but in general you don't notice it. Delicious ice cream is also given out during the day.
Beach. Walk for 6-7 minutes. The approach is sandy-stone, either slabs or stone slabs are felt underfoot, but not sand. The sea is dirty and muddy, boulders come across in the sea, right near the shore; the sea is shallow, you have to swim for a long time to get deeper, the sunbeds are hard and stand close to each other, cramped. There is no beach, immediately entering the sea. But there is another awesome beach just to the left of Armasa Beach, it belongs to another hotel that doesn't work or something like that. It gets deep there fast enough, sand, and clear enough water - just awesome! But 50 meters from the shore, rocks stick out of the water anyway.
Animation. From animation to water polo, water aerobics and darts, evening performances, talent shows, etc. From morning to evening, music is international, Turkish and Russian.
Turks and Russians mostly rest. Sometimes there are Germans, Iranians, etc.
The Internet is paid, catches poorly, $ 14 a week.
I would give the hotel a rating of 7/10, due to the cleaning of the rooms and the lack of control over it by the management. The hotel has a solid four, although Anex gives 5 stars; moreover, the price is not small for accommodation. If it wasn't for the cleaning, I would have given 9/10.
Good afternoon to everyone who reads my review!
During the pandemic, this year, we were still able to escape on vacation to our beloved Turkey! but! As we were warned, the rest will not be exactly what we would like (in comparison with previous years, it is in Turkey).
We flew from Yekaterinburg with a transfer in Moscow, which made it a long flight. We took off from Yekaterinburg at 8-00 and we arrived at the hotel only at 19-10. The weather was great, all 12 days of our vacation - not a cloud, not a storm. The air temperature was +46 at first, at the end of the rest it dropped slightly to +39, the pace.Water +30! You go into the sea - and it's warm!!! High!!! There was practically no wind. It's super hot during the day.
Now about the hotel.
Upon arrival, we filled out the questionnaires and were told to wait 5 minutes. It took 25 minutes, after which I couldn't stand it and went to the reception desk to remind myself. It turned out that they had simply forgotten about us, and for some unknown reason our questionnaire was put in a drawer. Well, anyway, thank God we were settled in a normal room No. 2303 on the 3rd floor with a BALCONY! I focus on the balcony, because there is one building with "French" balconies. I do not recommend the third building, because its windows overlook the stage, where it is always very noisy and music is playing until 23-00. The room has been slightly redecorated, laminate flooring is not shuffled, there is air conditioning, but it is sooo old, although it is working. It is already yellowed from old age, and the unit itself is hanging on the balcony, which is not very pleasant, because it is very warm from it, and at the same time.+26 in the evening, without wind with a warm stream from this unit, it is not comfortable to sit on the balcony, to put it mildly. It's not central, they turned it on themselves when they needed to. The refrigerator barely cools, but it doesn't make any noise. The in-room safe is free, but it didn't work. We called the master - he picked at it for 15 minutes, then told us the code that we had to enter, the only way it could open/close, it's funny, so we didn't use it. But the beds were cool, not sagging, one double euro and one single with a waterproof mattress. And the pillows are good. The bedspread was a waffle sheet, but it didn't bother us, because it was hot anyway. The TV seemed to catch 4 Russian channels, but we hardly watched it. Toilet and bathroom together. There are 2 bottles of shampoo and 2 mini soaps. Liquid hand soap and soap are hanging in the shower stall. However, for 2 days we had a very strong smell of sewage, after complaining to the administrator, it began to smell less often)). We were not informed of 1 set of towels, but the next day the maid gave us without any problems. Towels were changed on request, and the room was also cleaned on request, because they were not eager to clean up. There was a hair dryer, working)).
There are 3 pools, 2 adults and 1 child (40 cm deep). 2 water slides, which include from 13-00 to 15-30. Our 4-year-old child rode with them without any problems.
There is a SPA, but we did not go there, it is paid. A hammam in the SPA costs $ 30 per person, you can buy it on the street for $ 20.
Wi-Fi is paid, and it catches well only in the room, it works intermittently on the territory. We came out in 11 days - $ 19 - the cost is only for 1 room. So my husband and I took turns turning it on (haha).
And now the worst thing is the food.
I have never seen such disgusting food and terrible service in the dining room. Firstly, they are allowed there only in masks. The buffet is just a name, because you can't impose it yourself. There are waiters at each counter, they don't understand Russian well, so there are very long queues. And when you stand in all the queues and sit down to eat, the food is already cold and disgusting. Even when they put it on you, it's barely warm anymore. The cheeses are not tasty at all. Instead of bread, there are rolls in a package. There is very little baking. Meat was given only 1 time in the form of a cutlet, mostly chicken. The fish was only herring and mackerel, ugh. You also stand in line for tea and coffee. The tea is weak, the tea is not delicious. Coffee is only available in the coffee machine. There is no milk. 3 times they gave ayran. Good coffee is brewed in Turkey at the pool bar. The alcohol is all burnt, the cocktails are one name, the bullshit is complete. If you want a normal cocktail - $ 3. There are no napkins, no salt, no sugar on the tables. You are given only 1 set in a package: a knife, a fork, 1 napkin and a pack of salt. That's it! You need to go and look for the rest. It is necessary to take food in a mask, otherwise you will not be served. There is also a tape glued to the floor near the distribution area, which you can not get up on, and even more so for it - the distributors immediately start to get nervous and yell at you. The food is monotonous and not tasty. We were just shocked by it! This is the biggest and most significant disadvantage.
All the hotel staff are not friendly. 50% of Russians, 40% of Turks and 5% of Belarusians and Ukrainians each had a rest at the hotel.
The beach was sand, the sand entering the sea, from this the water near the shore was muddy, then the cobblestones began, some slippery slabs lay in some places, sand again in places and stones again, in some places even sharp. When my husband was diving, he took out the sharp bottle necks a couple of times. The entrance to the sea is gentle, but the Internet does not take there. On the way to the beach, a new hotel is being built, so it is dusty and noisy.
No matter how we tried to distract ourselves from all the disadvantages, the rest was not 100%. I would give this hotel a weak 3 stars. He can't do much more.
The hotel has low (4 floors) buildings. Not shiny, but mostly neat. One pool is very shallow, one is medium and one is for adults. There are a couple of small water slides. Safe deposit box - $2 per day. Hotel WiFi is paid. Some complain about its quality.
In general, the usual 4. The service is normal, but there are many moments (juice, ice cream, alcohol) where free services have paid more extended analogues.
We stayed at this hotel from 09/22/200 to 09/28/2020. We were settled in the 4th building on the top floor. The room is just awful. The glass on the balcony door doesn't seem to have been wiped once - it's cloudy, dirty. The curtains wouldn't hold. There is dirt on the balcony itself. Upon check-in, the young Turk told us that this was one of the best rooms and demanded $ 10 from us, if we did not pay him, they would give him a room on the ground floor with a view of the fence. It was the same with our neighbors.
The bathroom is all nothing but a shower cabin.The shower stall is very narrow (about 70 by 70 cm). You can only stand. No shelves for soap and shampoo. The hood is not working.
The safe is free, it opens with any lock pick, it is not bolted to the wall, you can take it under your arm and take it wherever you want.
The furniture, of course, is not new, but never mind it. We calmed ourselves down by the fact that we came to the sea to relax, sunbathe, and not sit in the room.
The food is so-so. For breakfast, eggs in any form, sausages, raw and stewed vegetables, tea, coffee, lactic acid products and slicing: sausages and cheeses. Moreover, the soup is mainly made of lentils and either milk rice or milk hercules - for lovers. Lunch has a more varied menu, but meat is mostly chicken. There was a turkey once in 6 days. Fruits and vegetables have always been there, pastries, oriental sweets are delicious.
The territory of the hotel is small, but well maintained. There are three pools: for adults, children and two more slides. All are clean.
It's a five-minute walk to the beach. Umbrellas, sun beds, towels are free of charge. The beach is sandy, the entrance to the sea is gentle, there are stones, but in principle the beach is good.
The Internet is paid and bad.
In general, I would not recommend this hotel. He does not pull at 4 stars at all, a weak three.
The food is not tasty, the beach is dirty, with flies, the sea is dirty. We went swimming a little to the left. At least it's clean. Cleaning:floors and plumbing. There's never been any dust, the windows are stained, it's disgusting. There are no advantages. We had a rest at the end of October 2021.
Well, what can I say about Armas: an economical hotel for a family holiday, boring for young people,there is a massacre on the beach for sunbeds, and we went in October, it's not such a season anymore, the food is delicious, there are few fruits: sour plums,apples, sour tangerines. They brought painted watermelons twice, showed them to everyone, took pictures and took them away. The animation is average, there is no disco, a quiet holiday for pensioners is the best thing.Alcohol is not alcohol, it's no good. The food is delicious, the rooms are cleaned every day, the pools are clean - this is a plus. From entertainment, table tennis,paid slot machines,water polo,WiFi catches at the reception for a fee, does not catch in the rooms. The food was chicken and turkey, the fish was burnt, looked like trout, in short, they would not feed fish delicacies
