The description and promotional photos of the hotel on the site are of course greatly embellished. The territory is small, but landscaped, well-groomed. In principle, there are almost no complaints about the rooms, as well as the cleaning staff, the maids are trying very hard. At the same time, there are no toiletries in the room, not to mention slippers and bathrobes. From dishes 2 glasses and one tray-plate. And that's it, from the word at all... Some asked for a kettle at the reception, but the hotel has very few of them. It's good that we were prepared and had our own. Our room is on the second floor, although it comes with a balcony. Those who lived on the first floor were practically sitting on the street, on the aisle from the reception to the cafe. And the rooms are very gloomy. Wi-Fi is very weak, especially in the evening, when it is actively taken apart. For comparison, in a nearby hotel (the same Continent network) Camelot has a 5 g network and a wonderful signal. In the same Camelot, a good, albeit small pool.
Guests of the "Valley" can use it if you rent a towel for 250 rubles. There are no more than 25 sun loungers at this pool (which was enough for us in September, because Camelot is already half empty in autumn, which I can’t judge there in the height of summer). But the clean water of the pool (for a change) saved us from a dirty and unattractive beach. Now about the beach. Yes, he has his own hotel, with bracelets you can use sun loungers and umbrellas. There are enough sunbeds, very few umbrellas. In addition, the "manager" of the beach very skillfully disposes of them, preferring to offer third parties for money. Beach. The road to the beach downhill is 6-8 minutes, the asphalt is very conditional or not at all. Back - steeply uphill, 10-12 minutes, and for physically fit people. The beach is small, narrow, about 15 * 80 m. Large pebbles, the entrance to the water is the same, unpleasant. The beach is not cleaned. The water is very far from transparent (unless you come at dawn). For comparison, in the neighboring village of Rybachye (3 km away), the size is much cleaner and larger. Went there a couple of times.
Right on the edge of our beach, a local river flows into the sea! . . And although in September it is almost dry, its runoff comes from above, from the private sector of the village. Malorechinskoe, where all the toilets are practically of the toilet type with a cesspool. Draw your own conclusions... After 2 days of rest in our group of 30 people, almost 12-14 people in one form or another (and very severe) caught rotavirus, 2-3 days lay in "lying" with severe poisoning. Well, perhaps this was facilitated by not the best quality food in the hotel cafe. Cafe. A very sad impression. Breakfast buffet is acceptable in principle, although the organization and logistics of this table does not stand up to criticism... Especially if more than 20 people come to breakfast at the same time...

Apparently the staff is not trained how to put this table in island form for easy access. Lunch and dinner in the format of a customized menu (you order in the morning, after breakfast). Although the order is loudly said. You can choose from 2 salads, 2 soups, 2 main courses, juice or compote. Everything. Do not count on tea and coffee at lunch and dinner. 3 waitresses (it looks like yesterday's schoolgirls), although they are trying, they are clearly not trained and have time for nothing. Everything is served cold. The quality of the food is very mediocre. Several times it looked very sour, which raised doubts whether the poisoning of almost half of our group was due to rotavirus.
Hotel location. The village of Malorechinskoye, no offense, is a "hole with a hole. " The well-known and beautiful temple-lighthouse of St. Nicholas the Wonderworker (active), and under it is a museum of the "history of disasters on the waters. " Not bad. Entrance 200 rub. In the village there is a small street leading to the beach with retail outlets, and in the depths of the village (from the sea) there is a mini-square with shops. To be fair, we note that everything you need is there, including a pharmacy, groceries, manufactured goods. In the presence of a branded store of the winery "Massandra".
There is no entertainment (as well as animation in the hotel)! The so-called embankment with a promenade no more than 250 m long rests on an unpretentious cafe with an "unobtrusive" DJ, where the whole evening life of Malorechinsky is "boiling". They themselves organized a mini-jeep tour to the Dzhur-Dzhur waterfall (15 km from the village, into the mountains). The price is 400 rubles (if you order from the hotel, then 500 rubles). Well, those who wished to ride in Sudak, Novy Svet, the Golitsyn trail. But it's already 50 km away. . . The overall impression of the hotel and its location - would not go a second time
