Rich Melissa Hotel

-Rude staff -They are easily irritated by children -WiFi only works at the reception of the hotel and you have to pay for each day you use the wifi, does not work in rooms - The hot water worked about twice throughout my entire stay, I made many complaints about this not much was done

Me & my Fiance went on our first holiday together here, we’re both in our early 20’s and wanted a cheap holiday to start us off as we wanted to do a lot of activities rather than stay in the hotel. We did still spend a lot of time in the hotel and it wasn’t luxury but you get what you pay for, the food isn’t brilliant but I’m a very picky eater and I was vegetarian at the time! However, eating out is not expensive at all, we could get a meal for 2 for under £10. The staff were lovely & friendly, always happy to help, there was one member of staff that didn’t speak a lot of English at all and couldn’t understand me but pulled up a translator on his phone and took the time to try and understand what I was saying and we had a lovely conversation! I personally thought this was very thoughtful and did show that they are doing their job! I did however have an incident when I was in my room unclothed and a random man unlocked my door and walked in! Even with the do not disturb sign on. He was there to put the door on the shower as we didn’t have one but I was not informed that this was going to be done, if I was I would’ve had clothes on or gone out, I spoke to the hotel manager about this and he spoke very fluent English but couldn’t understand why I was so angry, he did listen to me though and understood eventually and apologised so I appreciated that. There is absolutely loads to do outside of the hotel! The beach is about a 10 minute walk away, on the way to the beach there is absolutely loads of shops to browse through, the beach do lovely food & drinks! The only bad thing I would say about this hotel is it’s not very suitable for children, there is only one slide that is quite fast so not very good for young children however there is a small children’s pool but they are the only child friendly activities. It is not a luxury holiday but like I said, you get what you pay for & me and Fiance did enjoy it!

If you are British or Irish avoid ! Very basic hotel that is full with rude, arrogant Russians. You will not feel welcome. There is a mosque close by - expect a call to prayer at 4.30 am followed by 5 mire throughout the day. Food is terrible and so are the drinks. Restaurant staff watch over every move you make. Internet (£2 per day) is poor and constantly gets switched off. Pool area becomes shaded early in the afternoon and has approx 25 sunbeds for the whole hotel. Cats wander in and out of the Restaurant and will climb up begging food. Unless you get this for a bargain price - AVOID

I’m not quite sure about all the bad reviews as I went back in August and had a great time rooms were cleaned everyday the food was delicious and the only problem was the man who tried getting me to go down to the spa but other then that it’s a really good hotel I would suggest you go with your kids or your partner as it’s great fun for all
