My room was dusty and shabby and hadn't been cleaned from the previous guests. In fact it was pretty unplesant even after I had cleaned it. I did not eat much in the hotel but it was O.K.
The hotel was mostly used by Germans who did the usual sun bed trick and there were never any sun beds to go round... not even if you checked out the situation at 8am!!!
The music.... well what can I say GREAT if you like The Birdy |song Hip Hop Euro Beat style!!
Hotel Location? Well I didn't much like Side.... way too touristy. I'm not usually a grump but it was a fairly expensive holiday to be spending on shabbyness.

Booked hotel as a base, whilst I had meeting with agents as we wanted to buy a villa in Turkey. Travelled with my 8 year old daughter.
Arrived at 3 or 4am, only to find they didn't have a room. Thompson rep had dropped us off and already left. Had to share first night with another women also travelling alone with her daughter. We were given a self catering apartment/room. I had to share a double bed with my daughter as I let the other lady have the room with two singles as she had a teenage daughter. If they wanted to use the bathroom, they had to walk through our bedroom. We also discovered too late, that we only had one room key. They said they would find us rooms in the morning, but I still didn't have one by 2pm, so demanded they sort one out with the rep. Got upgraded from half-board to all inclusive and had a nice room over looking the bay.
Food was catering for the Germans, best night was the Turkish night.
Woke up one morning and felt sick. Went down with some violent vomiting bug. Had to send my daughter to breakfast, lunch & tea on her own, as I couldn't even keep water down. Luckily only lasted for one day, but later found out that lots of other guests had got the same bug.
What was included in the all-inclusive package wasn't very clear - you still had to pay for lunch if you had it at the poolside snack bar.
Entertainment was dismal.
Worst thing about the hotel was the resident peacocks who woke you early every morning.
To get to beach, best to go down road, as steps very step and hundreds of them.
