Review of Montenegro
The review will be detailed. Perhaps, information on all sorts of different little things will come in handy, so, sorry, if it's tiring.
Villa Celebic, Budva. We rested in Montenegro, this is already 3 times. The first time in the Fineso mini-hotel, the second time in a villa near the Old Town, I forgot the name, but I remembered the extremely unpleasant owners (although the location was relatively good then - not far from Mogren Beach.
We arrived early, but, despite the fact that the check-in was at 12, they settled at 10. Wi-fi really works! ! ! The access code is issued at the reception. For me, this fact was also important.
There were no 2-bed rooms, so I ordered a 3-bed, but based on 2 people. You can play football in the room The room has a balcony, sea view : ), because the 4th floor. Despite the fact that there is no elevator, this does not bother me and my son.
At the reception they understand Russian, in English, in my opinion, it is weak at all. In the shower - towels and soap. Everything else - take it with you.
The room and balcony were clean when we checked in. There are minor flaws (in the refrigerator, the shelf fell off all the time; a couple of holes in the wall (apparently they missed during the repair: ). But this is all nonsense, especially since the recipes for eliminating holes from the field of view are given by the unforgettable Prostokvashino.
Breakfasts were included in the price. I want to say right away that if you are traveling with small children, there will be nothing to feed. Although, you can’t especially feed a man either. Breakfast is very modest, although I personally lacked only oatmeal. Standard set: fried eggs, grilled zucchini, cucumber-tomatoes; local cheese (quite salty), sausage (none), bread, butter (rather margarine), milk, tea (chamomile, it suits me), juice or fruit drink (it looks like compote).
Instead of this breakfast, you can have a great breakfast for 2.5-4 euros in the nearest cafe-restaurants.
Cleaning. I understand that normal wet cleaning is done only after eviction from the room.
Then during the week they just take out the garbage.
Next to the store "Discount". In general, as I understand it, it is profitable to buy alcohol there. We were interested in water and juices. Water "Vodavoda", 1.5 liters - 0.55 euros. Juices are different - 1 liter is about 1.20-1.30 euros.
Nutrition. Here I will describe my impressions about restaurants and cafes, as well as shops.
1) Restaurant "Zlatibor". Lunch (rather, of course, a second breakfast: ). According to reviews from the Internet, we decided to have lunch at Zlatibor. Their website is currently under development. The menu is in 3 languages, including Russian and English. For 2 people: spaghetti bolognese (5.9 euros), "salty pancakes" (2 simply huge pancakes with cheese and thinly sliced ham + sauce + tomatoes), 3.9 euros; water and cappuccino (1.3 and 1.4 euros); Shopska salad - 2.5 euros. Total 15 euros. Service is good. Of the minuses (to be honest, six months ago I would not have paid attention to this at all : ). Cappuccino is served immediately with sugar.
When I asked why sugar was immediately added, the waiter was a little embarrassed, said that he knew about serving separately. In fact, this is not a grumbling on my part, just someone drinks without sugar : ). The website of the restaurant is under development, but even now you can find a lot of information there.
The place is quiet and peaceful. Green veranda. I didn’t order alcohol, but I got the impression that the price for almost any alcohol is 2 euros on the menu.
2) Cafe "Mozart". According to reviews on the internet, we found the Mozart cafe in the Old Town. A very good cafe. Excellent soup - puree of green vegetables (3.9 euros). Son ordered a pizza, weight - 480 grams, 8 euros. They were more expensive and cheaper, depending on the weight and filling. In total, we and a company of 4 people were in the cafe. For the girl from the company, the waiter forgot to order a steak. The guys ordered a lot of different dishes. Draw your own conclusions.
3) Kangaroo Restaurant (Kangaroo). Dinner. In terms of price-quality-service ratio - so far in 1st place.
It is located at the intersection of the Jadransky way (main street) and st. Great Grapes. We immediately went to a closed room with wi-fi and air conditioning. This part of the restaurant looks more like a cafe-bar, but we had lunch and drank coffee there. The people mostly hung out on the open veranda : ) And there was almost no one in the Internet cafe. So, we ate fish and veal soup (1.5 euros each). Compared to the soups of a similar plan that we ate in other places, there was enough meat and fish. For the second, I ordered stuffed peppers. The menu says - weight - 300 gr. (2.7 euros). Friends, the peppers are really huge, stuffed with meat, and rice is only sometimes found in the stuffing : ). That's not all. What was my surprise when I saw that these same peppers are served with a side dish - boiled potatoes. In fact, if, for example, 2 girls are having lunch, you can definitely dine with this dish together. Salad - from tomato, 1.5 euros (150 gr. ). Salad is, of course, an understatement.
You will be brought chopped tomatoes, separately salt, pepper, oil and vinegar. You make your own supplies. But this option suited me very well. Coffee - from 0.8 to 1.3 euros. I ordered a macchiato. Liked it very much. Son ordered something like a hamburger. In fact, they bring a shmat of minced meat on half a plate. The second half of the plate is occupied by french fries and some onions (4.5 euros). My child (17.5 years old), especially for the last 3-4 years, has always had an excellent appetite and never left meat half-eaten. Here he could not overcome this piece of meat the first time. I had to take a technical break and eat up after a short rest.
Of course, there were interesting items on the menu. For example, beans with a side dish. We did not have time to ask what they offer as a side dish for beans : ).
4) Butcher shop. Opposite the "Kangaroo" is "Mesara" (butcher shop). There you can tear out fresh meat, you can immediately fry it (ibid. ).
The prices are acceptable. So, this option is also mono to take note.
Beach. Since we are here for the 3rd time, we don’t go to the Slovenian beach at all. Despite the fact that it is far from Mogren, we go there early in the morning (the sun does not bake like that). At 8 am - already there. Moreover, on Mogren -2. In July, on Mogren 1, the crowds of people are simply huge. The local guide said that masses of Serbs have poured into Montenegro this year. Indeed, there used to be a sea of Russians and Ukrainians. And now, compared to the Serbs and the locals, we are a bit relative.
There is a bus stop in front of the hotel, walk 3 min. By Mideteran-Express (1.5 euros) to the island of St. Stephen 10 min drive + 5 min. walk to the beach. I think you will not regret if you go there to sunbathe and swim. And be sure to take a walk in the park next to the beach. There's even a map of walking paths.
Tours. This time we went to the Grand Canyons (by time from 6-7 am to 7-8 pm). The ride is long and a bit tiring. But it's worth it.
Previously, we went to Dubrovnik, Kotor and the Bay of Kotor. These three excursions are different and I can't say which one is the most interesting. We also went to Skadar Lake. This tour is a good walk.
Have a nice rest! If you have any questions - write, I will answer.
