Are there bad rooms to avoid in Turkish hotels and is it worth upgrading at check-in?

TL;DR
Some hotels have rooms under the pool or facing the road that are noisy and below standard quality. Book a pool view room in advance to avoid issues at check-in.
What the community said
Around 9–10 rooms in the hotel are located directly under the pool and fall well below standard category quality — closer to promo or economy level. Booking a standard land view room carries a risk of being assigned one of these.

Most rooms face the road and can be noisy. Garden-facing rooms are considered quieter and were just starting to be occupied.

The front desk may offer a 'good room' for an extra fee at check-in. It's worth inspecting the room first before agreeing to pay — verify the quietness and location yourself.

Booking a pool view room instead of land view from the start helps avoid being assigned a problematic under-pool room. Changing the category after booking can incur penalties on top of the upgrade fee.
