Hotel, Hillside Su
Well I am here in Antalya, Turkey after having spent my week in Istanbul. We are finally branching out to the smaller cities in Turkey, and our first store is in Antalya. Again, I came in with my ideas of what the city was going to look like, and of course, I was totally wrong :-) The city is huge, and very densely populated. Most of the buildings are 5-8 stories high, there are lots of malls, and tons of hotels. This city is a hot spot for Russians, and Northern Europeans who want to get some sun.
The business partner here told me I had booked the wrong hotel, and that I needed to stay at the Hillside Su because they were all supposedly staying there. My last night in Istanbul we all went out for dinner and a few drinks in they tell me they are not staying there, but they didn't want me to see where they were staying because it was horrible, so they told me the best hotel, and right down from the mall. They are so nice, but then I felt like a heal. The entire hotel is white. White white white white white. And- it's a couples resort! ;-0 LOL I quickly realized this by the couples everywhere, like a Club Med, the mirrors all over the bedroom, the kingsize bed on the balcony, and the fact that there are 5 bars here, and two pools, and nightclubs with themed evening events on site! It was funny when I ordered room service the first day in- the guy came in, looked around my room, looked at my one suitcase, looked at me, and set the tray down and walked out! LOL I mean, (laughing) he was so confused like "why the heck is there a single dude here?" On the plus side, my room is pretty sweet, and there is an amazing Sushi bar downstairs which I had the most life changing Vegi and Maki rolls tonight. Pictures attached are of my room, and the view from the balcony.
