The hotel has a great mix of amenities and the food quality was quite impressive overall. However, the language barrier and the focus on German and Russian guests made communication a challenge. While the staff worked hard, especially Mehmet, to assist us, the dining experience didn't meet the expectations set by the 5-star label, leaving us somewhat disappointed.

This hotel has some positive aspects like a decent family-friendly atmosphere and good pool facilities, but the overall dining experience fell short of expectations, especially for kids. While the rooms were spacious, the service could use improvement, especially during meal times. The location is okay, but not ideal if you prefer to explore nearby attractions easily.
