The hotel itself is a 5 all day. Not sure why all the pics have a fireplace and the room doesnt have it, but its summer so no big deal. Nice clean room with fancy jacuzzi. Even had headrests and changing colors etc. Nice bathroom. Bed a bit small but pretty comfy. Outdoor lounging area with privacy screen. All of it was good really. The bad is that the food wasnt great. Some was ok. Some was just bad. And service was polite and kind, but just not professional. Things came out at random times and forgotten items. Ive read its typical in the area at all the hotels though. Im not upset about it. Just saying it could certainly be better. The worst part is just how far from the main area is. The port area has every imaginable store. But where the hotel is has very limited access. They do have a boat right from the port thats free. They say it comes every 20 minutes just its just inconsistent and you have to wait and hop on quick before they sail away. And the other option is a bus. You need a card and theres a BIM you can go to at the port. In the backroom they sell cards for 50TL and then you load with cash from there. Rides are 33.93TL so load up when youre there. And the island doesnt seem to rent any electric scooters/bikes which is crazy. Walking up many steep hills is hard in the heat. And a bike would be even harder to do. Many steep hills. So the location is very challenging and there wasnt specific guidance i just figured it out as i went. But the hotel itself is great.
