Dolphin Apart & Hotel(Dolphin Apart Hotel)

Bien. Mucho ruido. Colonia inglesa.

Close to airport, on the main street but quiet. Clean and new rooms. Wifi is weak

Older hotel but for the price, can't beat it. Friendly staff and breakfast was okay. Stayed for one night to be close to Dalaman airport. Can use updating but again, for the price, it's just fine.

Trigger Warning: We have stayed at this apar**ent motel before, and the things I liked about it then, I still like: 1. It’s close to the airport for when you have an early or late flight and can’t get to your destination yet 2. It’s inexpensive 3. And, this time they helped arrange the PCR testing team come to the hotel for ease of testing before our international flight BUT, we will never stay here again, and if your safety and well being is important to you, you won’t either. The owner/manager is a COVID denier and an anti-vaxxer. Despite Turkish federal laws mandating masks, they don’t wear them - the owner went off on some crazy conspiracy theories about the virus and vaccines, including how the USA was going to collapse "soon" due to lack of food production. HUH? ***? So, for all of you COVID deniers, have at it. Here you can freely share all of your flat earth theories and continue bragging that you’re smarter than every scientist and doctor on earth. It’s long past over due - we need to cull the herd. We need to rid the earth of your Idiocracy. So, please, all of you stay at this hotel together, spread your illness and stay far away from us - those who still believe in science and facts. And, if you need to work from here, the internet will just barely get you emails and texts.

We stayed here just one night before our longer stay at Club Robinson in Sarigerme. The young man on reception welcomed us in a friendly manner. Payment was needed up front and after check in he took us to our room. I needed to ask him about breakfast times and location and how the WiFi worked. Our first impression of our room, 109, was that it was small. The description on the website says the room is 25 sqm but there was no way it could have been. It was more like 15 sqm. We had to squeeze around the bed and there was nowhere for us to put down and open our suitcases so they stayed shut the whole time. Perhaps the advertised size includes the small terrace outside? Our mood wasn’t improved when we discovered that there was no WiFi reception whatsoever in the room. You could only get WiFi if you moved towards reception. I went and asked the young man and he said that the WiFi in the room was weak, but in fact it was nonexistent. Thirdly, it was very noisy, especially in the evening as it is right next to the main road in and out of Sarigerme. Thankfully we’d packed some earplugs. The bedding consisted of a simple cotton cover - no sheet - which didn’t reach the sides of the bed. My husband went to reception to ask for an extra one (as it was a cool night) and it was no problem getting one. When he mentioned to the receptionist our unhappiness with our room, he called the manager who kindly offered us a huge apar**ent but as it was so late (I was already asleep), we declined. This action shifted my review from poor to good. On the plus side, our room was nicely appointed and had everything in it we needed including a fridge, aircon, towel heater, tv and toiletries. The bed was very comfy. Breakfast was good and they even brought yoghurt for us although it wasn’t part of the buffet. It’s an attractive complex, right next to the main street, and the swimming pool looked very inviting so I would not be put off from staying here. Just don’t pick this room, and bring earplugs!
