We were with a friend in October 2024. I took a $20 package myself and that's the ceiling for this place. There is a steam room, but so much menthol is added to the steam that you can't sit for long. The sauna is good. The waterfall is a simple misunderstanding and turns off often. A Jacuzzi with hydro massage and supposedly mineral water is actually a knee-deep tub with cold water and a few bubbles. You will not sit in the hammam, they let you do the procedure there, and peeling and soap massage are done very quickly and poorly, the hammam itself is cold, and then they kick you out, the next batch of people is waiting. There is no shower in the locker room, the massage is bad. I do not recommend it, do not waste money
We visited this institution in August 2024. The building itself, the pools, the font, the surroundings are generally normal.
I didn't like it: you go to a massage, you just relax during the massage (you did 3 minutes), as the masseur says: one minute, he leaves, brings a Russian translator and he starts to spin you for money, and you are lying stripped to the waist, and you need to fight back. Here, the masseur said you have a bad back, you need to take a therapeutic massage, at least 1 session for 30 bucks, or better course, the masseur said your leg muscles are clogged, take at least a foot massage. And he starts begging and begging. Is that why the client came there, to fight off the intrusive beggars naked?!!! The whole impression is spoiled as a result, there is no trace of relaxation left, the massage therapist, dissatisfied with the refusal, blunders to finish the massage hastily, completely wasted money. They are only interested in a divorce for money. Moreover, as it turned out, the situation is exactly the same for all the other members of our group, the whole impression is spoiled.
A detached building. The furnishings are expensive and rich. High-quality repairs. Basic services are inexpensive, but get ready for additional services. They will definitely be persistently offered at all stages.
this PM was visited for the 3rd time, before that it was more or less for your money
, Yes, they offered and persuaded you to all sorts of unnecessary services and it is also unlikely that you will be able to relax, no one will accompany you through the territory, only indicate the direction, then yourself, wait a long time for the transfer back, so also a car with a driver talking exclusively in Turkish, so if suddenly you, like us, are brought to the wrong hotel, it is very difficult to explain why we do not go out
But what they've done this year doesn't go through any gates.
First, as usual, the session 'buy this, buy that, you really need it all'
I'll run ahead and say right away that it's better not to take ANYTHING extra from these "masters", it's better to go to a trusted medical center
We changed our clothes, went to steam, first a bath, a shower, a menthol sauna, then for some reason they immediately send us to the Jacuzzi, although we need to take a shower, and then they start calling for peeling in the hammam, but we can say that we are not ready to steam yet, and sit in the Jacuzzi as much as you like, just watch carefully with a towel, we lost one thing when we went to the sauna
Then you are taken away for peeling, yes, only men do, it is very uncomfortable, this time the peeling gloves seemed stiff and somehow synthetic, when they began to pour water after peeling and foam, I realized that the bend of the elbow and stomach burned, after a few minutes, I realized that they tore off my skin only on these delicate areas, I do not understand why it was necessary to rub there at all, always the upper abdomen, the bend of the elbow, the face, the neck, there is delicate skin, but no, our masters do not know about this, and apparently about their strength too, because I got off lightly, but here My mother had completely skinned off both her arms, back and stomach
We immediately told the workers, at first they assured us that everything was fine and there was nothing terrible, then they offered to anoint us with something, with some kind of oil, anointed one hand, and in the meantime it was getting more painful to sit and move your hands
I will not forget to mention the mask, for some reason everyone is smeared with one brush
So they did not apologize to us, they sent us for a massage, stopped us before the massage, showed two mountain masters, pointed a finger at us, apparently explaining that this could not be done, said that the masters apologized, and that's it, then massage
Well, what kind of relaxing massage can there be if the skin burns with fire from touching?
We did it somehow, went down, changed our clothes
I had to wait for the minibus home for 20 minutes!!! And during all this time, no one came up to us, I'll say more, no one from the administration was there, everyone magically disappeared into a closed room, but by the will of fate we pulled them out of there, and it started again 'in 10 minutes everything will pass', 'it never happened', 'your skin is very delicate' and the like
They sprayed something again, didn't even bother to smear it, told me to do it and left
And it would seem that the adventures should end there, here it is a long-awaited minibus and a native hotel
But that was not the case; they put us in one minibus, all the seats are occupied, a large company is going to their hotel, they are going to take us to another hotel, we are trying to explain to the driver that another one is needed, he repeats that hotel like a toy, with a name similar to ours
We got out, they put us in another minibus, there is the same story, and only for the third time they put us in the right one and oh, happiness, they took us to our hotel
They could swim without pain after such a "rest" only after two days, after a week the skin gradually exfoliates and recovers
And, also, keep a close eye on your water bottles, you turned away once
- Where's the water? - We've already had a drink.
So I strongly advise you to choose other hammams, even if they are more expensive, but I hope that you will be satisfied
There are a lot of people, just a demonstration, but everything is arranged correctly: from the sun to the guy from the steam room to the hammam from the hammam to the mask from the mask to the massage.
The barkers shouted to us here: "come to us on excursions, before pegasus scares you off." So: we were saved by pegasus)
On a tip from the hotel guide, we went to this hammam. It takes 5 minutes to walk to it, no, for some reason they took us there) From the doorstep, we were dubbed the next difficult clients for today. Well, who are we to debunk his conviction and buy something else) Then there were several circles of hell, and in the final there was a massage for 20 minutes, 7 of which were again started by translators from Kyrgyz. At home, for 1700, the masseur will knead me for 1.5 hours. And here, for $ 25, they smeared oil, clapped their hands (these are not even rails, rails, sleepers, sleepers), stroked and everyone is free
I visited this bathhouse in October and I will not recommend it to anyone. We bought complex number 2 for $35. I'm still suffering from back pain. Never trust your back to non-professionals. . We had a massage for 40 minutes. After 5 minutes of incomprehensible movements, more people came and began to tell me what a terrible back and I need to add another massage for $ 75. They tried to persuade me for 10 minutes, and left with nothing. And then, my frustrated massage therapist really started pounding me on the back with his fist with all his might. To my indignation, he replied that it was necessary. The massage ended after 30 minutes. Of which 10 tried to cheat me for money without doing a massage. To my complaints, the receptionist said calmly, everything was fine, there are no complaints about him. She flatly refused to show the cameras. It was obvious that they were used to complaints. The closet is dirty, surrounded by faded plastic flowers from the 90s. Run away from this place if you were brought there. It's strange that anex tour agents advertise it like that. The next day I went to the sauna at the hotel just to warm up and really regretted that I did not go there right away, succumbed to the persuasions of the guides and it was 10 dollars cheaper. There were six of us and we all had the same thing, a divorce for money in the most primitive way
Russian Russian is a disgusting institution, the so-called Jacuzzi-gadyushnik, the masseur, who allegedly does not speak Russian, turned out to be a Kyrgyz who speaks Russian perfectly -the whole show boiled down to the fact that I have "problems" with my health and, for an additional fee, he apparently treats. Crowding of people, imposing primitive services for non-primitive money. After the hammam, "Turkish " tea is packaged muck.
A disgusting establishment, shabby rooms, a vile team trying to breed customers, but most of all I was surprised by the plastic-paneled ceilings in the hammam and this in Turkey
