I'll start from the beginning. If you arrive at 7:00, no one will check you in or put on your bracelet until 2:00. They wait until lunch is over and only then they check you in, there will be no free water or coffee. The room is generally clean, old towels and no hairdryer. Shampoo is only provided for check-in, they didn't give us any more for 14 days. The first four days there was no cleaning at all, they didn't even take out the trash. The view from the balcony is very beautiful, no questions here.
Now about the beach. Very narrow beach line. The hotel does not have its own sun loungers. Prices for a sun lounger are 18 euros without a mattress and 24 euros with a mattress under an umbrella. You can take one sun lounger right by the water, without a cover, for 6 euros per day. There is a free zone, very small, there are so many people there, there is nowhere to put your feet. There are so many people around that your head starts to hurt from their number. If you are looking for peace, this is definitely not the place for you. Discos work on the beach all night and you will never sleep with an open balcony. Animation from a neighboring hotel will be from 10:00 to 23:00 and you will constantly hear it. I must also say that the "all inclusive" system is only until 21:00, then you will not even be given free water (we went to the supermarket for water if we returned later).
Golden Sands is a vacation for those who get up at 17:00 and hang out until 5:00 in the morning. There is trade on the embankment, the street is very lively. There are people there, like in the past at parades. It is not realistic to let a child go alone, then it will be impossible to find him in this crowd.

The nearest water park is in Albena. Very decent. You can get there by taxi (20 euros) or by your own car, there is no bus service.
Now about the food: the restaurant is not designed for such a large number of people, there is a constant queue. At the entrance they write down which room you are from. The choice of food is very modest. If you were thinking about fish or seafood, then this is not the place for you - they don't give them here at all. Potatoes, rice, pasta every day. They don't fry fries. There are sausages, but they don't taste very good, I don't know what they are made of. Meat is always with sauces. The choice of vegetables is a little better: cucumbers, tomatoes, cabbage, onions, olives, black olives. They don't give any lettuce leaves here. The pureed soups and pasta soup are delicious. We didn't like the tomato one. The choice of sweets is very small. Cookies and rolls. There were apples, oranges, apricots, watermelon and grapefruit. Juice from the machine only in the morning. Coffee only on the lobby after breakfast.
Pool and entertainment: the pool is tiny. Diving in it is prohibited. There is a billiards table, you can play one game for 3 euros. It is not possible to lie down at the pool, people take the sunbeds from 7:00.
Staff: many Ukrainians, all friendly. But they have rules that they are afraid to break. I asked for water in a large glass (like for beer), then they refused and said that it is not allowed, three small dates can be used). But this is the cheapest hotel in the resort, do not expect anything wow from it. You will not die of hunger and the beach is 20 meters away.
