Standard double room, big enough, two decent beds pushed together, small fridge (doesn't work when card is out of switch) and old TV.
Condo weak, even at the maximum. The balcony is of reasonable size and has a portable towel dryer etc. In the bathroom there is a bathtub (real! ), there is an extractor hood, it doesn't smell of anything criminal ; -). It is a bit inconvenient to wash without a curtain, otherwise everything is acceptable. Never had a problem with water. There is no hair dryer.
For ten days, linen was changed once, towels were changed 4 times (sometimes at our request). Removed without additional tip.
All the staff are friendly, but those under 30 do not understand Russian well.

Breakfast - buffet. Sour-liquid cottage cheese, scrambled eggs, sausage, cheese, butter, baked bread, tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers, muesli, milk, honey, tea, coffee, some fruit. Everything is edible, it is monotonous. About lunches and dinners - the reviews are not bad, but I have not tried it myself.
The hotel area is small. There is a microscopic playground (a pair of swings and something else). The pool is clean. Works from 10.00 to 17.00. The size of the main part is 15 by 5 meters (very approximately). There is a frog. Sun beds by the pool are free, but there are not many of them, if you wish, you can sunbathe nearby on the grass.
The hotel has a type of spa. Massage is not expensive, but very high quality. Back only - 5 sessions for 90 leva. In the same SPA there is a microscopic gym (5 leva per hour). On the fourth floor there is a tennis table (5 leva per hour), rackets at the reception, but where it stands, it is not realistic to play. The nearest viable table tennis is seen at the Inter Hotel.
There are small safes at the reception (12 levs - a week). You have the key and they keep the safe. There is also an iron at the reception (for free! ), The existence of ironing boards available in the hotel is stubbornly denied.
Animations - zero (which is a plus from our point of view). During the day, the children in the hotel opposite (Albatross) make noise. Quiet at night. Even numbers - to the courtyard of the hotel, odd numbers - to the street (I'm not sure that this is the case for all rooms).
One of the two elevators - constantly did not work (did not bother). On the fourth floor, on the roof there is a bar (it worked once with me), on the first floor there is a main bar. If you decide to drink tea there, ask for water to be poured from the cooler (real soda pours out of the coffee machine! ).
The hotel has a good exchange office (we only used it), open from 10 to 19.
To the beach 300 - 350 meters, there is no beach. On the beach BEFORE eight in the morning and AFTER five - you can sunbathe anywhere, and from 8 to 17 - paid zones work (umbrella 3-4, sunbed 2-3 levs), but the bulk - presses on free ones.

Near the hotel there is a bicycle rental - 4-5 leva per hour. You can go to the end of Kranevo (along the coast towards Z. Peskov) or to Albena (preferably along the coast). 3 hours is enough to go see Albena, relax and come back. If you are going to drive along the highway - be extremely careful and without children. Movement is fast.
On the way there is a beautiful sunflower field (you can take a picture).
The ENTIRE village of Kranevo can be reached on foot in 2 hours.
Lunch for two 15-20 leva (I liked the Niko cafe at the hotel of the same name), dinner for two - about 30-40 leva (I recommend Serbian).
We went on one excursion: “Kamchia. Miracles of Langoloz” (85 leva).
On the river wash - 30-40 minutes. The river is dirty and muddy, there is not much to see. 30 minutes - on a buffalo farm (you can take a picture holding a buffalo by the horn), the main thing is not to get into trouble. Tasting "sour milk" - 30 minutes. One small glass and jam (delicious, asked for two more). 1 hour - riding on the Soviet automobile industry, in the back, along a dirty forest road. Result: everything is covered in mud like ingots, what is extreme - no one understood. Further gatherings with games. Restaurant zero stars in nature with a break from first to second in 1.5 - 2 hours. Some wine, rakia, water, even less food, plus national dances and songs. Everything is sooooo tight.
Yes, the bus practically did not work air conditioning. All this action was accompanied by: an aunt-tour guide and two humanoid creatures (operators / entertainers).
Have a good holiday everyone!
