Rested with a 3-year-old child in July last year in the "Astoria". We took the All Inclusive. Before that, we rested in Albena, Sozopol. Of the shortcomings - very, very noisy, it was impossible to fall asleep even with a closed balcony, I wonder how the child fell asleep, but my husband and I were waiting for the morning to sleep. A personal hotel beach was announced, we read reviews that it was 5 minutes on foot, on the first day we went looking for it and never found it, later it turned out that it was still 5 minutes to the beach, but not on foot, but by minibus. The minibus went according to the schedule, it was necessary to catch it before lunch, because the driver had a break until 14.00 to 16.00. And since the beach was at the end of the resort, it took about 25 minutes to walk to the hotel with a normal step, which in the heat and with a child, not so much. Then the kitchen upset, my husband and child had an upset for 3 days, they ran to the pharmacy for medicines, but we were still lucky, because some children ended up in the hospital and on a drip. In the morning, the usual breakfast with eggs, omelettes, as well as sausages, cheeses and sausages - not very good quality. At lunch there were thin, tasteless soups, half-rotten tomatoes from time to time, pickled zucchini. In principle, there was a lot of food, but it was really difficult for us to choose. There were also theme nights. Flies flew in and over the food. In short, the husband ate almost nothing and the child too, but thank God I have a strong stomach))))) They saved themselves with chicken and potatoes. A mother with a one and a half year old baby was resting next to us, who was in a slight shock and ran around the district in search of buckwheat porridge. We bought fruits, since the hotel had apples and last year's oranges, then, however, watermelons were added. On the beach opposite the hotel there was some kind of drain, they said it was a sewer, we tried not to swim there. The hotel does not have its own territory, on the one hand the road, and on the other the beach. In general, we have no desire to go there again, only our child was satisfied with everything. The hotel is right next to the sea, the view from the window was gorgeous. There was a TV in the room with cartoons on. There is air conditioning, as for me it is very good - it does not blow much, it just creates a comfortable temperature. The radio didn't work. Mini bar is expensive. Balcony with chairs and tables. The partitions are translucent between the balconies, you could see the neighbors. Cleaned every day, cleaning mainly consisted of taking out the garbage. When we left, of course, all the troubles were forgotten, but the sediment remained, although there were tourists who liked everything, they were sincerely surprised at our discontent. It should be noted that these tourists were without children)))). Summary: for a vacation with a child, you need to choose a less noisy resort and a cozy family-type hotel.
