Средний санаторий Average sanatorium

This year I visited Voskhod again. Rest period: end of July - beginning of August. Lived in building 4 on the 3rd floor.
What has changed (or has not changed) in a year? My comments are rated on a five-point scale.
Registry. Girls are friendly, friendly, extremely correct. Any wish of the client is tried to fulfill as far as possible. Honored "5".

Number. Lived on the 3rd floor, plastic windows. The wallpaper is all stained with yellow, the beds are from memorable Soviet times, so as not to fall apart, stuck to the walls, but soft. Air conditioning available, worked properly and saved in the heat. The TV, although not new, also worked well, Russian channels are available. For the first time I saw a refrigerator built into a bedside cabinet. It opens and closes with a key that simultaneously acts as a latch. The bathroom is like a shower cabin, the water is constantly hot-cold. On the last night, waking up early, I found uninvited guests: centipedes, cockroaches, etc. It’s good that I didn’t wake up earlier at night, I would have had to sleep on the balcony))). The noise in the street increases as August approaches. The view from the balcony to the sea is amazing, you can't imagine a better relaxation. Be careful on the balcony. A man during the procedures said that a piece of a balcony from the top floor collapsed onto his balcony. In the evenings in August, the light was turned off in the building, so in August from 22-00 to 7-00 the elevator in the building did not work. The building is in dire need of a major overhaul. The maids are friendly, they try to clean up quickly, garbage is removed daily, linen and towels are changed weekly. Rating accommodation - "3".
Nutrition. A canteen near the railway station, in building 1, which caused conflicts with arriving beneficiaries from Moscow, whom the Moscow government "supplies" in large numbers to support the Crimea. An interesting fact: this year, the administration with accounting was transferred from the nearby building No. 3 to building 4, the third is now fully leased. And why not think about how to convert the building of 3 buildings into a dining room, and rent out 1. Naturally, it is extremely difficult for the elderly and the disabled to go to the dining room 3 times a day. It was a joy for me, 10 minutes along the promenade - beauty. But "crawling" in the heat with a crutch for 30-40 minutes is deadly. If it is important for the owner of the sanatorium to keep the "preferential contingent" (and this is up to 90% of the residents), you still need to think about moving the dining room. The food is better than last year, the food is tasty, varied, the waitresses are friendly, even if you haven’t made an order, they still try to offer something to choose from in addition to the regular dish. Only one dish does not change - "cottage cheese casserole" (as it appears on the menu), I took it once for testing. It is precisely "curdled", cottage cheese in it is "gulkin's nose". Everything else is very tasty, especially I liked the fish. For lunch, as a rule, fruits (mostly local, which is very good). In the evenings - kefir or fermented baked milk and delicious pastries. Rated "4" with a plus.
Beach. Very well. There are much more sunbeds, there is no reservation from now on (there are enough sunbeds for almost everyone, except for the latest visitors, who come at 10 o'clock), as well as there is no "main attraction" - a nurse. It's a pity... Garbage is removed on the beach, special smoking areas are allocated. "5".
Treatment. Once again, I would like to thank doctor Zinaida Fedorovna, who treats each patient like a child, takes her to a massage therapist herself (this year, due to the provision of privileged categories of Muscovites, massage is free). Of course, the list of procedures is minimal, the medical base of the sanatorium is almost in complete decline, and colossal funds are needed to restore it. Thanks to the workers of the salt cave, the mud treatment room, the masseuse: they are professional, caring. By the way, information for fans of mud therapy: in "Voskhod" you cannot get a full-fledged mud therapy, the mud is applied not "live", but wrapped in a cloth, there is no electric mud therapy, so judge for yourself the effectiveness. There is a pump room with mineral water, imported water, slightly mineralized. The main healing factor is the most wonderful sea and the healing air of the southeastern Crimea.

Grade "4" for the efforts of the medical staff, the medical base - no higher than "2", in dire need of replenishment and replacement.
Thank you so much to all the staff for doing their best to make the rest useful.
And finally, about what can ruin the whole vacation - this is the road. Rest in the Crimea is now good for Muscovites and those who directly fly planes. I counted that I changed 18 modes of transport to get from Bryansk to Feodosia and back (train, train, metro, aeroexpress, plane, trolleybus, buses). On the way back, having arrived at Sheremetyevo, I waited more than an hour for the Aeroflot to give out luggage, so I ended up missing my train, for which I had a ticket... Going on a trip, be prepared for such surprises. Have a nice rest!
