Hotels near Melen Sarapcilik, Sarkoy

Hotel has great location and sea view rooms,but nothing more. Situated in the Altinova neighborhood, 5-6 km from city, but there are minibuses/in blue color/ for 8,5 Turkish lira (price in one direction ) to catch and to reach city center, the sea alley and fish restaurants and other places nearby. Staff is friendly and responsible, mostly young people. They speak tolerable and understandable English. Very helpful reception staff. Rooms are old fashioned , need repair and replacement of the furniture in the bathroom,mainly. The faucets and shower fausets are old and uncleaned, there is no need for bathtub I think,the cistern was moving when sitting ,and please be careful with hair drier it's old too. There were clean towels, hot water ,dispensers with soap and shower gel. The room was not cleaned on the next day, I was for 2 nights staying. Breakfast is quite good , but not for the coffee, you can drink good coffee in the city cafes, and there is Mado on the sea alley. Had an organized dinner, can't tell for the food in the restaurant. You can eat anywhere in the hood or in the city. Please try balik ekmek (fish sandwich) or Tekirdag kufte (minced meat). Hotel is at the beach. The sand is a little bit black, beach is not cleaned from the algae after the rain when we stayed there . And there is a channel that flows into the sea few meters from the hotel. This hotel desperately needs repair and renovation!
