Afytos Bodrum City

Bayram tatilinde arkadaşlarımızla güzel bir tatil yapmak istemiştik fakat personel çok ilgisiz ve yemekler gerçekten çok başarısızdı. Neredeyse hergün dışarı çıkıp yemek zorunda kaldık. Tek iyi olan şey otelin yer diyebilirim. Diğer iyi hizmet alabileceğiniz beachlere yakın.

I'm trying to write a review about Bodrum/ Gumbet in Turkey, but this site just throws up all kinds of unrelated garbage, resorts in Hawaii, Yorkshire etc. I'm just trying to warn people of a few pitfalls of the area. One thing to be aware of is that Bodrum Airport is terrible, and this is routine. I had to go through 4 sets of identical extensive security checks on the return journey, one before check in, one after check in, and 2 separate identical checks one after another in the departure gates area. And these were full security checks - everything off, public strip tease, being swabbed with chemicals on your skin, all your belongings tipped out, etc. Four identical checks, one after another. There was no reason for this, like a bomb warning or something - it seems they just do this all the time as a matter of routine. It was like being treated like a prisoner of war or something. Pretty awful. This happened to everybody - elderly people, people with very young children etc. People who have been there before say it's always like this at Bodrum - they do this all the time. It was not a one off. Why I don't know. Maybe the Turks just want to make work and create unnecessary jobs for their relatives. But I would never go back to Bodrum for this reason alone. Bodrum Castle is quite impressive, with exhibits of ancient shipwrecks and ancient burial sites in the area. Some of the stuff on display like ancient gold jewellery and cargo from shipwrecks is jaw dropping, but it is spoiled by extremely poor lighting. With a lot of it, you just can't see what it is. It costs 350 lira/ £15, and you can hire an audio guide for another 125 TL. But if you do, you have to hand over your passport as security to make sure you return it, and it's advisable never to give your passport to somebody else abroad. The restaurant there is expensive, £2 for a can of soft drink, but the toilets are free. Buses in the area are quite good, 17 seater white minibuses you hail as they go past. There aren't any bus stops, you just tell the driver when you want to get off. They cost about 15TL. Some things in the shops are quite cheap, loaves of bread 5TL and 10TL, packets of cheese and salami 10 and 17TL, can of local Efes beer 40TL. £1=22/23 TL. Beer in a bar 65-80 TL or more. But eating out is not particularly cheap. English breakfast 180TL (some places had just put it up to 250TL with the start of the main tourist season. ) That's £8/ £11 compared to £2.99 in Wetherspoon's back home. So it can get quite expensive if you eat out all the time and there are a few of you. A meal like a steak of some kind or lamb chops is £20. Even fish and chips was £20. Even things like kebabs, burgers and pizzas can be quite expensive, £7 for a burger. There are some takeaways in Bodrum centre that are cheaper. There is a KFC near Bodrum harbour that does a 2 piece chicken meal with a coke for 92TL. There are a lot of traders and hawkers for clothing, shoes, sunglasses etc. that will

İki yıldan beri bu otele geliyorum otelden çok memnunum gerek personelleri güleryüzlülük benim için çok önemli.Yemek bakımından yemekleri güzel daha iyi olabilir.Animasyon ekibinden bu yıl her gün düzenlenen etkinliklere katıldım özellikle denize çok teşekkür ederim benimle ilgilenip eğlence aktivitelerine clube götürdü her şey için teşekkürler.

Yemekleri çok kötü alanlar çok dar oda güzel fena değil ama plaja uzakdı ayrıca da havuz pisti köy kahvesi gibi hiç beğenmedim biz havuza girmedik her gün farklı plajlara gittik ama yemekler çok kötüydü yani genel anlamda kimseye önermem her yer kötü

Temizliği bakımından çok iyiydi, personel ekibi çok ilgili ve güler yüzlüydü. Fiyatını sonuna kadar karşılıyor. Kafa dinlemek için de tercih edilebilir merkezi konum olduğu için eğlence yerlerine yakındı. Etsturdan Metehan bey her isteğimize yardımcı oldu sağ olsun. Animasyoncu Melike hanıma da ayriyeten teşekkür ederim. Tavsiye ediyorum.

Gerçekten çok memnun kaldım. Tüm çalışanlara ve otel yönetimine teşekkürler. Animasyonda yer alan Melike hanıma ayrıca teşekkür ederim. Seneye geldiğimde tekrardan bu otele kesinlikle geleceğim. Yemekler güzeldi. Ayrıca odadan da çok memnun kaldık.
