Impressions about the hotel were good, but with reservations))
There are disadvantages that I have not seen in 2 * hotels, but there are advantages that I have not seen in 5 * hotels
The territory is not large, compact, but constantly had to walk up the stairs: reception-pool-restaurant-beach.
Met, fed dinner, settled. We asked for a room on the 2nd floor, near the beach, they gave it on the 1st floor, near the pool.
(At night, our drunken tourists like to dive into the pool and have long "heartfelt" conversations, there is music, dancing, animation on the beach until 12-1 at night))
The rooms are small, nice and each room has a safe (free of charge! ). Beds with excellent mattresses (very reminiscent of orthopedic ones! ) And forged elements of jewelry (if you don’t pay attention to rust, on metal), a bathroom with everything you need, but a small shower, the window is covered with a mosquito net (which has not been cleaned for more than one season).

The rooms are cleaned daily, but for three days in a row, returning from the beach (and we left from 8 am to 2 pm, more than enough time), our room was not cleaned and the tip was not touched on the bed. The issue was resolved quickly, by calling the reception, but in principle it could not exist . . Towels are changed daily, but they are old and washed out,
The restaurant has an indoor air-conditioned space and has tables outside. The choice is not large and rather monotonous, but the food is very good and tasty. For breakfast, in addition to stewed vegetables with sausage (it tastes strange)), potatoes and beans (these are side dishes), there is cheese (regular and processed), soft (salty, with three types of additives such as greens or pepper . . ), sausage ( the local cat refused to eat), cucumbers, 3-4 salads, pastries (croissants and puff pastries with various additives), and on the street, the cook will cook scrambled eggs, scrambled eggs (with or without tomatoes, peppers and cheese), fry pancakes . For lunch, you will be offered soup, 2-3 side dishes, pasta or pasta, chopped vegetables or the chef (in the hall) will cut your chosen vegetables for your salad in front of you. Meat and fish (one type each) or fish and meatballs (beef) are cooked outside. There are freshly squeezed juices (! ) from melon, orange, pastries, such as sweet pies and cakes. In the second hall you can take ice cream (just a one-kilogram container, a cone in a bucket of water and plastic cups, everyone puts it on their own), there is also a conditionally called bar (which is more like a dispensary for dirty dishes), where you can order alcohol, wine or beer. Alcoholic drinks, peculiar, for an amateur)). From fruits: oranges (cut into slices), bananas and melons (it was not the season for dates). Dinner, in principle, is the same: several side dishes (rice, potatoes, baked vegetables, fresh vegetables, meat and fish, melon, watermelon, juices (! ), 4-5 types of pastries. The pool bar was not working, breakfast from 7 to 10, but at 9 o'clock nothing was cut and reported. Dinner was also from 10 to 22, but after 21 o'clock - what left, do not cut anything.
The beach is good (but not always cleaned), the entrance to the sea is sandy. Wooden sunbeds (with peeling paint here and there), towels are old, but clean (issued on special cards). There is no wine in the beach bar, but there are non-alcoholic cocktails (majito, orange, pineapple, cherry and some kind of tricolor), and gin, whiskey, vodka, rum, you can order and add to the cocktail yourself.
Wi-Fi is available on the beach, in the restaurant, at the reception, free, but intermittent

And one more thing, about additional bonuses: during the first three (! ) days upon arrival, you can get a free massage (15 minutes), rent (free of charge) a mask, snorkel and fins once (near the bar, on the beach and rental and massage room)
during the rest visit (at the hotel) a restaurant of Italian and Oriental cuisine (nothing special, but as a bonus - nice). The pool has a jacuzzi.
Animators are tactful, friendly, positive and unobtrusive. Masha and Alex, thanks for the mood!
There are few young people, the main contingent is 35+ and older, 99% Belarusians, We went to the city (on our own), the cost of a taxi to the fish market is $ 1, (Marina street, there are also many fish restaurants where fresh seafood will prepare your order), to the shopping street Sharaton - $ 1.5, shops, local boutiques, shops. It is better to exchange money for local currency (you can at the reception, you can at the seller in the shop, near the reception), contact the animator Masha, she will tell you where to change, where to buy, where to go.
Every evening, those who wish are taken to a disco, after animation on the beach.
The sea is beautiful, the sun is hot, the rest is wonderful. Emotions are many and varied.
