I finally got around to writing a review for this great hotel. Let me remind those who do not know that I won the tour here in the quiz on Turpravda and, accordingly, did not pay for the accommodation. Therefore, I looked at the price of the hotel during the days of my stay and evaluate all the pluses and minuses, as if I had paid for the stay. Are you going to pay?
So.
City and location of the hotel.
Skhodnitsa is much nicer than the hyped Truskavets. And I am very glad that Respect is located in Skhidnitsa.

Here it is no longer a plain, but hills and low mountains, nature is nearby. The advantage of the hotel is that it is not in the middle of others, but the last in front of the forest, between the hills. Therefore, it is quiet, pleasant and calm here. There are no noisy taverns, tracks, markets. Only nature. This is a huge plus. Nearby there is a source of mineral water, but there is no great need to go to the springs - mineral waters from several sources are delivered to the spa center according to the schedule.
From the route with minibuses, 10-15 minutes on foot. There is also the nearest shop. 30 minutes to the center and the bus station.
The downside is the broken-down road from Truskavets to Skhidnytsia.
Hotel.
The territory is not very large, but well-groomed, there are many plants, including evergreens, so it is quite green all year round. There will be enough parking for everyone - our own is not very large, but there is a parking lot behind the hotel fence and in front of the entrance to the territory. There is a separate security booth. Security is on!
There is a lake with fish.
We were here out of season, which I personally am very happy about, since there were very few people. At breakfast we crossed paths with 4-5 families, couples, and it’s as if we are resting ourselves ; -)
Everything is new and beautiful, the hotel is just over a year old!
The room has a wardrobe, mini-safe, mini-hodilnik, TV, telephone, hairdryer, air conditioning.
Wi-Fi is normal, it was picked up everywhere, even with an iPad.
The rooms are small but beautiful (I'm talking about the standard). I really liked the bathroom. It's nice that they bought good ceramics, sanitary ware, they didn't even save on acrylic, they installed Ravak.
Cleaning daily, no complaints.
There are no negative numbers.
SPA-center
A separate building, with a separate price list for services.
Something (saunas, swimming pool) are free for all residents, something (massage, including Thai secret, salt room, ozocerite, inhalations, cosmetic services - for a fee.
But stay tuned for promotions! For example, for us, an additional surprise, in addition to the already free voucher, were free procedures - one per person per day.
I re-photographed the entire price list with services, if anyone is interested, I will throw off the pictures.
Even if you do not live in Respect, you can come to the Spa Center.
Out of season it is very convenient, there are few people, and the spa is very quiet, for two days my husband and I were there together!

There are two steam rooms, not very big. The pool is about 10-12 meters. Rather splash than swim.
There are also pump rooms with mineral water.
Everywhere is clean - that's the main thing!
Minus slippery floor (or my slippers)))
And it seems to me that during the season, the Spa Center will not accommodate everyone. They will be tight.
Staff.
Very pleasant, helpful. There were no problems with the employees, the room was cleaned regularly; waiters, administrators, masseurs - they all try very hard.
The only thing I didn't like was the medical advice. This is my first time in a hotel with a “therapeutic” bias, so I don’t know what a consultation in a sanatorium or similar hotel is. Superficial and nothing. They write out the same thing to everyone. I didn’t understand why this is necessary at all, if the intake of water and the procedures are almost identical and boil down to trying everything.
Nutrition
There is a restaurant on the first floor.
Breakfast is a la carte, a choice of 2-3 options. It's nice that the proposals included cereals, and the menu included a diet. Ordered from the menu, it was delivered fairly quickly.
There was a choice - to buy lunches + dinners complex (for everyone, a choice of 2-3 options for dishes for the day ahead) - 170 UAH / person.
Or à la carte meals - we chose the menu and were satisfied - we tried some very tasty dishes.
They brought us somewhere in 20-30 minutes, so we made reservations and went for a walk.
I really liked the buckwheat pie. A very strange dish - both the name and the composition (buckwheat and like potatoes), but the look and taste are awesome! I recommend!
Surroundings
Kind people! You need to walk, breathe the air, pick mushrooms and berries. Don't sit in one place!
Urych village is located 6 km away from the hotel. Must visit! The road there is bad, a taxi costs about 60 UAH one way, I don’t know both ways. You can walk, the road goes through the forest, but there are no beautiful views along the way. It took us an hour and a half to two hours on foot.

There are Uritsky rocks in the village, there used to be a Tustan fortress here. Little is left of it, but even if you just climb the rocks and, without seeing the fortress, look around, you will like it.
Here is a museum, entrance fees are 12 hryvnias, a guide is promised hourly there (included in the ticket price). A lot of souvenirs, barbecue, tea, tables, in general, trade!
A little aside equipped places for picnic-houses, stationary barbecues. I think that in the summer there is paid accommodation in gazebos.
We spent almost all the time sitting in the sauna or walking in the forest, and only managed to get to Urych.
But Borislav also deserves attention with its beautiful church.
In the village of Opaka (less than 10 km from Skhidnitsa, take a taxi, about 60 UAH one way) there is a trout farm - you pay only for the trout you caught, at 90 UAH / kg of live weight. You can clean it there, fry it (just), there are barbecue facilities. They sell drinks.
Fishing itself is free, gear is provided, payment is only for the catch.
We took a taxi from Truskavets to Skhidnitsa for 120, we bargained. And their fee is 150.
In general, I liked it! The hotel is decent.
We figured that the price is about 450 UAH for a double in November, with breakfast, with unlimited access to the sauna, swimming pool, this is a very good price.
And given the promotional procedures, just a great price!
