I will say right away, only from the train - and the impressions are fresh. I'll try to be as detailed as possible. First, 3 stars is too much. An ordinary seaside hotel, not the first freshness, of which there are many. We went out of season, so the prices were an order of magnitude lower than, say, in July. Settled in a suite. The room is large, but the unpleasant smell of dampness in the room and the dilapidated furniture immediately caught my eye. The faucet remained in your hands when you changed the water from hot to cold, the shower door fell off when the child washed in it - thank God, I was there and picked it up. The drain is clogged with a terrible sewer smell coming out of it. The curtains fly off the hinges, the sofa is old and musty smells from it too. From the positive: there is a safe, air conditioning, which we never turned on, as it was rather cool than hot, 2 TVs, a refrigerator. Obviously there was not enough nightlight in the bedroom. A lot of mosquitoes constantly flew into the overhead light, and we didn’t need it so bright all the time. There is a side view of the neighboring hotels and the sea behind them. I would not pay more than 1000 UAH per day for such a room during the season. Service is missing. There was no cleaning for the week at all, the bed was not changed. Once the garbage was taken out - that's all the cleaning. Over the past 10 years, I was on vacation in Ukraine for the first time - and I was shocked. Even in Bulgaria, not to mention Montenegro, Greece, Spain, they made our beds, twirled swans, washed sinks and spread clean linen. Shame on us until we begin to understand what 3 STARS are. On the 5th floor there are billiard tables, swings, a children's mini-game, a massage chair. Children often and a lot ran there, while their parents rested downstairs, drinking beer on sun loungers. Near the pool there are small slides, a trampoline and a swing for kids. This is also a plus. In general, we rested well, but I only say this about the rest in general. If we take the hotel itself, then it is clearly asking for reconstruction. Since other hotels in ZhP offer even less for the same money, or an order of magnitude more expensive, if the hotel is new, then, accordingly, Dolce Vita is in the black and is a clear favorite. There are plenty of vacationers. In my opinion only because of the lack of a healthy and adequate alternative in this resort. It should be noted that the location is very advantageous: the hotel is almost under the beach, in the center, there is a SPA. To summarize: I had a good rest, we only slept and washed in the hotel. Restaurants, beach, dolphins in the sea, few people and good prices in early June is a plus. Would you like to come here in the season? Hardly. For the same UAH 15-20.000 (accommodation + meals at the prices of ZhP for today) you can have a great rest for a week abroad. And this is in flight. But if there is no choice, as we have this year, and small children, then the choice is yours. Score 6 out of 10. Thanks to the cheap shrimp and the dolphin experience by the beach. Good luck to everyone and have a good rest!
