Rested from 01/23/2018 to 01/30/2018.
1. Settlement - instant. Settled near the upper pool in the "Slavic town".
2. The room is quite spacious and, by Arab standards, clean. The furniture is old but not broken. All sockets and switches, hair dryer, TV and refrigerator are working. Towels and bed are clean. One minus - in the toilets in the rooms there are no brushes.
3. Rooms are cleaned and bedding and towels are changed every other day. Drinking water and garbage - every day.
4. Restaurant - really a lot of everything and quite tasty. Especially baking. The meat is given out in portions, but if you need, they put 2 and 3 servings. Chicken and fish - every day. For a week there were stuffed pigeons and grilled sausages and boiled beef and meatballs... In short - enough. Vegetables and rice - beyond praise. Of the shortcomings - the staff does not always have time to promptly clear the tables and put out clean dishes. But they are trying very hard.

5. Staff - the manager is at every meal and at evening events. He greets you very kindly and asks if everything is ok. And almost all of the staff are the same. There are a couple of bartenders who clearly show that they are tired of the hell out of vacationers, but they do not make the weather.
6. The beach is quite clean, beautiful and conveniently located in the bay. Sheltered from most of the winds. The entrance to the water is sandy, then there are corals. Or from a 60-meter pontoon. Beach towels can be changed at least every hour. We took clean and dry ones when the old ones got wet. Bar and animation open from 10:00. All sorts of sellers of excursions, etc. , strain a little, but when one barked at one, no one else approached.
7. Hotel guide - one for two hotels, so it is not always possible to find him at the hotel. BUT! His tours were no more expensive than those of the sellers on the beach. This makes me happy. Safari - 10 dollars, diving on the island of Tirana - 25.
8. No one was in a hurry with the eviction. We calmly vacated the room, handed over the suitcase to the storage room, went for lunch and then sent us to the airport.
Conclusion: the hotel does not pull on 5 *, but on a solid 3+, or even 4 - freely.
But we did not go there for "show-offs", but for relaxation and the sea, which is excellent there!
