самый ужасный отдых нашей семьи worst holiday for our family

I will say right away - I am not one of those tourists who travels to "beach" countries in order to look for flaws in hotels and then vilify them for what the world is worth. before that, I vacationed with two children (now they are 12 years old) 1 time in Egypt (the Ali Baba hotel is a complete delight); 3 times in Turkey (twice - normal, the third - in the hotel "Sapphire" - an indescribable experience) and 1 time in Tunisia (normal - "four" as "four"). for two years we could not afford to go abroad, and this year we decided - we will rake up all the money we have and go to the warm sea on the scorched sand. specially planned a trip for the fall - after all, in these countries there is a "velvet" season. in the company "Pilgrim-NN", from which they traveled all the time, we were advised this hotel (because Egypt is closed, and Turkish hotels, where it was really worth going, turned out to be more expensive than 120 thousand - I had only a hundred). the travel agent, whom I repeated several times about the warm sea and hot sand, said: "if you do not find fault with trifles, then everything is fine. " however, on the day of arrival, we realized that we had "hit". mobile communications - only through Tunisian operators - do not work either "zero without borders" or "good line" that I used on previous trips. other tourists tried to use the Internet - they put money in, and immediately "the account is zero"! with whom to ask - is unknown. hotel guides ("Pegasus") work disgustingly, answer all questions; "What do you want - the end of the season. " and what - at the end of the season do not people come? or we came for 10% of the cost? the all-inclusive system turned out to be the all-off system here. for breakfast - vegetables from the previous dinner, porridge with sour milk, oranges as if they had begun to rot somewhere at the base, and they were laid out for tourists so as not to be thrown away. Lunch and dinner are better though. the dining room itself - one cannot call it a restaurant - resembles a "soviet" canteen to some backwater: broken cabinet chairs; upholstery on soft chairs is greasy, worn, scratched; tablecloths are gray, washed out; decoration - several colored rags stretched under the ceiling. the hotel buildings resemble a hospital: the walls in the corridor are painted white, the floor is tiled with gray tiles. prints "under Greece" do not save. rooms - as again in some provincial Muhosransk: everything is broken, washed out to an asphalt color, a broken hair dryer, a burnt lampshade on a wall lamp, holes in the curtains, shabby doors and walls, cracks in the tiles, drips on the ceiling, a tiny piece of bathroom soap and one tiny bottle of shampoo (the three of us went, and for some reason there were two such sets), flies, mosquitoes, cockroaches alive and in the form of corpses smeared on the walls and ceiling; the TV shows 2 programs in Russian (there were 4 in another room) in terrible quality. TV and air conditioner remotes, as well as beach towels - on bail of 20 dinars. gym - for a fee. in retail outlets in the hotel, the prices are very much in everything - one seller calls one, the other - the other. playground - one name. kids club - one Lego set and a bunch of broken pencils. and about the weather. this was the biggest shock. icy heavy wind from Europe, waves as tall as a man, clouds in the sky, respectively cold pools (so what, what are there 6 of them? ). yes there is an indoor heated pool. but imagine how many people there are per square centimeter in such weather (everyone wants to swim). so of the pluses, only the first coastal (but so what under such weather conditions? ) And a large territory (I won’t say that it is very well-groomed and beautiful). in general, I never waited so much for a flight home and did not envy people walking with suitcases to the reception to go to the airport. on departure, I was expecting another "surprise" - they wanted to weigh the luggage so as not to pay for the overweight. it turned out that it costs 2 dinars, and weighing is carried out. . . steelyard! the only plus of this "rest" turned out to be that I still love my long-suffering, dirty, tortured and filthy Motherland! my advice is to choose another hotel if you really want to relax. do not waste your nerves and do not be fooled by positive reviews - I believe they are written by Russian employees of this hotel and employees of travel agencies that sell vouchers there.
