Один большой плюс (правда он не отельный) перекрывает обилие минусов... One big plus (although it is not a hotel) covers the abundance of minuses ...

We rested in Marina 3 * (on some booklets it was stated 2 *... ).
1. There is no air conditioning in the room
2. Cinema hall - this is a strong word: a bright room with a TV and chairs lined up in a row. It is located so far away from the route of the guest that I can’t even tell if the TV was ever turned on...
3. Pool with sea water, which is diluted with bleach. . .
I don’t remember anymore....But the impression of the hotel is a lot of minuses and one small plus! Since I VERY love Croatia, first about the bad.

Cleaned the room BAD!! ! If it were not for the tightly tucked blankets under the mattress, you would never have guessed that someone was in the room. Still ALWAYS closed the window with sashes and curtains and shutters !! ! The room faced north - the sun was only after 16-17 hours, why the maid decided to deprive us of coolness at lunch is not clear. She began to clean up only after they left a note on the handle of the room: "Clean our room, please! " And then, if we used a vacuum cleaner, then not all over the floor... The dust was not wiped AT ALL NEVER! I washed the sink ONLY once on the 13th day, and this despite the fact that it managed to get dirty in the local Croatian red earth (after a heavy rain, a lot of things were washed away from the mountains... I had to wash my shoes... ). Towels began to be changed a day after that very note... The bed was changed only once, again on the day we posted the note... Soap and shampoo brought three days before departure! But when communicating, she was friendly, even a little frightened... with her BROAD smile (despite the fact that I am a positive-minded and quite sociable person, there was a feeling that I was stuffing myself into a tip... ) There were thoughts of leaving something on the table, but I pay ONLY for work, not for lack of it. . .
The breakfasts were delightful. Although for us it was familiar, as we are accustomed to such a variety in Mediteran 2 *. Why was there no difference in a hotel with more stars. . . ?? ? Question to Valamar (the owner of these hotels).
Dinner is disgusting! ! not by the number of dishes, but by their quality and variety. The salads "from the chef" were the most surprising (ingredients: what they didn’t finish yesterday - sausage (it’s not even our Posadskaya, it felt like natural pink toilet paper... even without adding a cube for taste), cheese ( in Russia they didn’t try such disgusting things !!! ), boiled or stewed green peas, corn (again, this is what is served in separate containers every day) they also mixed rice and rotten cucumbers...
They ate there the so-called "French" salad, the same as the Russian "Olivier", only without sausage or meat, but with a huge amount of carrots.
A lot of sauces (5-6), mayonnaise, ketchup (tastes no better than "Krasnodar"), vegetables are cut into SUCH slices that it's scary!! ! Lettuce leaves, I had a feeling, were plucked two days ago, but were stored in the refrigerator... Cucumbers: my granny left such grains for planting !!!
Hot dishes: one dish (especially loved last year in Mediteran 2 * - it was served there almost every day, more than every other day : ), only there it was a cold appetizer) was so disgusting that....Ingredients: tiny octopuses , pieces of squid, mussels, shrimp - very little, and fresh and pickled rice and cucumbers - in large ones (in Mediteran it was the other way around). Plus, they "added" scale from all this brew...
Since 2008, in Mediteran, it has become the same as in Marina, because. these hotels have united: one reception (in the Marina), one kitchen. . . It's a pity....
Now for the good:

What kind of cakes were there..... The restaurant staff is very friendly, not intrusive, but SO loving to chat with colleagues not far from those who eat... not speaking English (Example: I asked the girl in English, apologizing, she said that speaks Italian, repeated the request in Italian - in response to a smile and... German. Well, how could she know that I speak a little five languages ​ ​....including German... Poor fellow... My request remained with me... and I didn't suffer. . . : ) As a bonus, I got more attentive service. . . : ). as soon as something ended or was on the verge of an empty dish, it immediately changed to a full one. You can’t take anything out of the restaurant from the food (there is a price list for food taken out at the exit, so one fruit is 12 kunas = 60 rubles, though they close their eyes if you go with a beach bag. ) Food is hidden not only by Russians, but also by Germans, Italians, Slovenes - and the Russians are in the minority here : )) When we were detained, an Italian wanted to take out an AWESOME pie in a napkin... But my son was regularly allowed to take out fruit... He is 13 years old, not such a cute baby. They allowed me, probably, because he ALWAYS asked the administrator: "Can I? "... : ))))))
And now the biggest PLUS that covers all the minuses is Croatia itself, "where you want to constantly return. " The most transparent sea, snow-white beaches (pebbles only made me happy), fragrant pine trees, playful squirrels, an eternal siesta... complete relaxation
