Set along the eastern part of Side, this hotel wows on approach as you climb up it's gardened slope & enter the large, spacious Lobby area. I'll be as honest as possible as we got back today as a family of 3.. there are some great things, but plenty of concerns and things you might wish to consider if you're looking to book here. Lobby area: Spacious, plenty of seating. Desk are fairly attentive and relaxed - it soon becomes clear this hotel is geared towards Germans, Russians and most of the other Eastern European Countries. WiFi is free for 2 people all over the hotel, even works on the beach. 3rd person can have it free in the Lobby only. Otherwise there's a charge. One major negative I noticed over our stay, is that the Lobby has a small water feature river running through it. Unfortunately this meant I was eaten alive by mosquitos whilst using the free WiFi in the evenings. I noticed many others with bites- I have to say I've travelled all over the world and by far, this hotel has the highest "bite rate" I've ever encountered (and I use excellent repellant). You're taken to your room on an electric golf kart and expected to tip as usual. Rooms: Things start to go a bit downhill here - we had an updated family room with a front bedroom with 2 single beds and a back main bedroom with a king size bed. The single beds had no mattress topper and were too hard/uncomfortable. The air con was far too cold in the single beds room, but not strong enough in the main bedroom. The bathroom was ok, shower pretty good although turns into a pool around your feet whilst showering. Also the sink tap was broken and swinging around the sink. The connection to the basin had come away. Also the sink plug was stuck in the hole, which required a "technical" person to fix. He just turned up and pulled it out the sink and left! The rooms are too light ; they have awful thin folding blinds that still can allow people to see in. Not to mention on the top floor it's very lit so you get a very light room when it's supposed to be dark. The main bedroom was dark until 530am, when the sun absolutely blazes through and it's like complete daytime. Come on Pegasus World you can do better than this .... TV also has a bright BEKO emblem lit which doesn't switch off even when the TV is off. Which is a daft idea as it's like having the light on! Food/Restaurant: Breakfast was the poorest time to eat. The Cooks overproduced food so it was almost always cold. Pancakes (Hotcakes) were rock hard , or rubbery due to being made half an hour earlier and sitting under a heat lamp. Omelettes were not cooked to order. Breakfast was a huge disappointment for us. For lunch, we used the snack bar near the water slides area, which was generally good quality and hot food. Evening meals always had something different on, so I will say the meats were fantastic and the range of foods very good. But - you had to get there shortly after 6pm otherwise it becomes utter chaos with people walking into e
