"The hotel is nicely situated in a quieter part of the Icmeler, it’s small but clean with pleasant enough staff, shoutout to the hardworking cleaners who were lovely, friendly and always smiling. I’d emailed the hotel prior to our arrival informing them of our wedding anniversary trying to purchase an upgraded room, we were told it was full but promised wine and fruit in our room which never materialised which was disappointing. Check out was 12.00 noon and numerous times I asked at reception if I could purchase a late checkout or an extra night due to the late transfer time, they kept telling us to ask later in the week and told us on the day of checkout we had to leave the room by 12.00 saying we could use the shower in the spa before departure and to leave our cases in reception- there is no secure luggage storage, you just leave your suitcase in reception for 8 hours. There are far too few sun beds by the pool which are all reserved by 07.00, many by people who then go and sit in the bar until lunchtime, we only once used the pool area and this was on the day of departure, obviously change over day increases your chances of getting a sun bed. The hotel do provide complimentary pool towels but be sure to get them in the morning, they’d run out by lunchtime when we fancied a swim. The beach is 70 metres away and the sun bed guy there is lovely, he’s friendly and helpful but the beach isn’t pure sand and it’s quite dirty/dusty, if you go into the sea to wash it off keep moving! The fish bite and can bite quite hard. The staff at the hotel are as hardworking as any Turkish hotel but the food is adequate at best and very repetitive and we ate out as often as we ate in (you can get a full English on the canal for £2.99), I have all my own teeth but not even I could tackle the beef. The hotel barber is a nightmare, persistent to the point of rudeness and even following us out of the hotel trying to persuade my husband to have a shave, we felt really harassed and starting dodging the hotel lobby to avoid him, having been accosted on 7 different occasions, a ridiculous state of affairs. If you want a cheap and cheerful hotel that many people return to, to start drinking at 10.00 sitting in the bar as there’s no sun beds, and don’t mind the pumping music and bad food this is the hotel for you. If you want a pleasant week in the sun to chill out, relax, enjoy good food and celebrate a special event maybe consider somewhere else, personally we won’t be returning."
