Nice staff, but needs some upgrades
Bir Dem Urla is a beautiful spot with good staff. But unfortunately there are a few things lacking to making it great.
The first is the toilet situation, it's understandable when old plumbing doesn't facilitate the flushing of toilet paper but when the bidet is broken on both the toilet in our room and the public toilet, it leads to a very smelly situation. In this case they should prioritize the repair of the toilets and the garbage should be changed daily to stop the whole bathroom smelling like feces. Upon arrival our garbage hadn't been changed from the previous tenants so it wasn't very nice to open the bathroom door.
Next, the bees/wasps. The pool is gorgeous but surrounding the pool there's got to be a hive/nest somewhere very close. Travelling with a partner and child who are allergic to bees meant we basically didn't swim or hang out by the pool during our stay.
Then there's the lack of storage in the rooms, this one is kinda picky but the rooms aren't that large to not have a dresser. We had a rod to hang stuff up but there was only three hangers. I don't find having to put my luggage on the bed every time I need to get something out all that convenient or relaxing.
Overall, with some upgrades to the facility, I'd stay here again. But as it sits right now I would look for other places around Urla or go out towards Cesme.
