Melissa Garden Apart Hotel

This is a very good budget hotel, if you are looking for luxury it's probably not a place you would enjoy. The rooms are spacious and very clean. Comfortable bed. Maid service every day. All of the staff are lovely, very friendly nothing is too much trouble. Very lively bar, music and entertainment goes on until the early hours. Bar/restaurant staff excellent, very entertaining and efficient service. Restaurant food is basic but very generous portions. We were self catering but room was not really adequately equipped toaster, microwave etc. were available at a hire price, we were there for 28 days, for a long stay concessions on the price should be made. It is advertised as self catering appartment but not fit for purpose as long stay self catering. Swimming pools good, clean and well kept. Melissa supermarket good, if he doesn't have what you need he will order it and it will be there the next day. Always helpful and pleasant. The paid for Wi-Fi was very hit and miss. Wi-Fi only worked for about half the time I paid for. The hammam man came round the pool and bar every day selling massages, we would have booked but his quote was over €100. So after that we went on get your guide and had a number of hammams over our holiday. Picked up and dropped of at hotel with half hour massage and face pack £11.25 each. I visited the hotel hairdresser this was a big mistake I booked a manicure and pedicure. On the price list I think her manicure was €15. and pedicure €22. When I came to pay it was 4,100 Turkish lira which is somewhere in the region of £100 nowhere was there any mention that the shellac was €30×2 for hands and feet. Not only was this the most expensive pedicure and manicure I have ever had I only pay half this amount in England, it was also the worst she cut my finger and it bled quite a bit for the rest of the day. The shellac started to bubble and lift after a couple of days, because she held my feet up on her lap to do the pedicure and I was sitting on an office chair the whole procedure was very uncomfortable. I certainly would not go back. The hairdresser next door had a cheaper price list, but certainly check what you are getting for your money beforehand. The hotel rooms are comfortable but a few basic things could improve them greatly. There are no mattress protectors on the beds. There are no do not disturb signs for the doors. The was nowhere to hang my dresses. The wardrobe only had a short hanging section for shirts. There were no hooks on the backs of doors so nowhere to hang longer items. The TV constantly went off no signal, it only had three English speaking channels all news channels CNN Washington, French news in English and another news that seemed to be mostly Australians. Sorry for sounding negative. Most of these are just small problems that could easily be addressed. If you are thinking of staying here don't be put off just be aware everything has an extra charge. Also there are no lifts, but the staff will gladly h
