Terrible hotel

Hotel in need of TLC, rooms shabby, hot water hit and miss. Shower Rail broken, plugs missing from sinks and no repairs carried out from our complaints.

Had to pay extra for air conditioning, no room safes. Had to leave passports in a safe at reception. No lifts to 3 floors.

Bar was expensive, much cheaper in the town.
No entertainment.

The good bits: the pool was great good depth all round. Bar and reception personal were helpful jack and sean especially, location was within range of the beach and shops.

Bad bits: Entertianment was hit and miss i think the best performance came from the resisdents who had to swing potatoes between their legs or the miss kusadasi game from four young irish boys who gave everyone a laugh from time to time. The noise from Jade can be a nusiance most nights.

All in all a good holiday

Very clean. staff helpfull. especially Jack and Dilek on reception. not forgetting the technical man.
Free meals twice a week but not quite up to my standard and I am not that fussy.
Pool really nice but advise to put towell out early.
If you use apartment telephone settle up with night receptiont Jack.
Downside Jade beach do not under estimate really loud even with room doors shut. Remember there are no lifts we were at my request on the top floor room 311
no kidding 60 steps to my rooom no porter at 4am so had to lug suitcases on my own bloody knackering.
Also you cannot have the hotplate on and the kettle at the same time as trip switch will go.
Best place to eat at ladies beach see Tyson at my corner near the end of ladies beach.

Good bits:
The view - absolutely fantastic.
Rooms - Basic but had everything we needed.
Cleanliness - Outstanding, this was the cleanest place we've ever been to.
Staff - Very friendly, efficient and attentive.
Bad bits:
The noise - The staff at the bar kept playing the same songs over and over again and it was dance/europop/techno drivel at its worst. To be fair they stopped doing this after complaints. However, when the Eurovision Song Contest was on the big screen was set up outside and we were subjected to this until the small hours. That was painful.
Don't underestimate the noise from the Jade nightclub across the road, we were there for the season opening and the word "noisy" doesn't cover it. It was like an earthquake, shaking the windows until 5am. It was a live band which made it worse.
The prices - This leaves a bad taste, when we arrived we were charges 16TL for two tins of Carlsberg lager from the shop, that's about

We have just returned from a 2 week break to this hotel & have to say all in all it was as we expected. The rooms were so clean & the staff there are amazing you get treated like family, I loved it. The bar is a little on the expensive side & the entertainment could be better but it wouldn't put me off going back. The beach club right across from the hotel however is a pain in the arse sometimes going on til 4/5 am and it can be heard all over the hotel no matter if your in the front or back building. I would still recommend this place it was awesome & the owner was a true star ! 10 / 10

Very enjoyable stay thanks mainly to the hard working staff. Always smiling, friendly and amusing (especially Jimmy).

Rooms were fine and cleaned regularly.

The location was ideal (halfway between town and ladies beach).

Food was good and not too expensive. Good sized pool.
Particularly enjoyed the football matches between staff and guests.

Entertainment was low key but you are close enough to get to livelier areas easily.

Plenty of sunbeds to go round (no early morning towel placing here).

Many people return here year after year and I can see why.

We have just returned from a fortnight in this hotel.

We arrived in the middle of the night and there was 24 hour reception cover and a porter to carry our cases so that was a good start.

The room was quite basic but had all the essentials, although if we had wanted to cook a full meal we probably would have struggled. The air conditioning was excellent but a bit pricey at
