I read a review about the hotel here that the waiters are boors, that everyone treats Russians as people of the "second" grade, etc. , etc. Complete nonsense !! ! The waiters are friendly, they always smile. I never heard anyone scream. I really liked Maria, Konstantinos, Emilia. Too bad they don't speak Russian. At the reception, too, always with a smile, go to a meeting. We arrived, they gave us room 106, but the air conditioner did not work there (we had apartments). Since it was Sunday, the maids do not work, and the free rooms were not cleaned. Then they gave us more keys to room 131 in building B, to spend the night. The next day, they moved to room 404, the view from the balcony was the pool, the sea on the left, the mountains on the right. I really liked the hotel. But tourists, well, it’s written that you can’t pour and take bottles of water with you, but no, they don’t even fill one, or even 2.3. Rednecks, in the supermarket at the hotel, a package of 6 one and a half liter bottles costs 3.5 euros, cheaper than in Russia. But not a single waiter took the bottles, did not make a remark. Cleaned the rooms well. As for the air conditioner, we turned it on only in the bedroom, it worked for us for days, we didn’t pay extra, you come from the beach, it’s just cool, in the whole room. Artists perform in the evenings: show with parrots, show ballet. Ivo plays the electric violin (hello to him), on Thursdays they sing and turn on the audience Maria (at first you will laugh at her outfit, but then... she lit us up like that). You can swim in the pool both in the evening and at night, just ask not to make noise. I advise you to go to Protoras on Friday, get off at McDonald's, cross the road and spend the evening at the Meze Tavern. An evening of Cypriot culture, where a Cypriot performs a dance with glasses, 17 pieces on his head, stunned. Just need to arrive at 7 o'clock, otherwise there will be no empty seats. But I didn’t like the fish meze there, it’s better to try the meat one. Now about the excursion: we went to "Real Cyprus", they took it from "Bibiglobus" for 3 days, paid 70 euros, it turned out that people who took it for 1 day paid 30. I want to say that apart from the meat meze, I didn't like it there: the guide was uninteresting in telling (although Russian, Galina, has been living there since 1977. ) then ran through 2 monasteries, then an ordinary bred-shop of silver and embroidery. Do not buy there, the same can be bought in Protoras, 2 times cheaper. Yes, if you are going to a water park, do not take it from the Bibliglobus, there is an announcement at the bus stop, order it and you will be taken and brought back. From Bibliglobus you have to take the bus yourself. Well, sorry, that's all. There will be questions, ask, try to answer.
