Karaman=Karmi

Edremit is just 2 min before you climb to Karmi.

So, it's okey if people confuse this!

Just whatever you do avoid the Steak House at the Mercure. I had the worst steak ever in there - it was cold the first time and then they microwaved it so we gave up and went to Pine Bay for chips. Also their chips are frozen! why in a country that has such good spuds

100% agree



Frozen chip need no prepeation

No time to peel and cut them

No wasteage

do not go off

not subject to seasonal variances

Cost is fairly stable



Oh yes they do taste crap But who gives a toss about what the customer wants ?
