Крымские каникулы Crimean holidays

In July 2013 we had a family vacation in Alupka. After a long search, we settled on the Kedr-West Hotel. We took two rooms: "mountain view" and "sea view". The sea view room does have a good view of the Black Sea, but the mountain view room has a view of the backyard and vegetation. The hotel is clean and tidy, rooms are cleaned every three days, garbage was taken away daily. At the hotel there is a cafe with average prices for Alupka, (complex lunch 55 gr. ), If you wish, you can find it cheaper, but you don’t need to go anywhere and everything is quite tasty. Breakfast was included in the price, as I understand it, the menu is divided into a week, so every day there is something new (scrambled eggs / pancakes / milk porridge). It is quite possible to bring your own alcohol or products to the cafe. Of particular note is the presence of an observation deck on the roof of the hotel. There is a small parking lot. We liked the hotel everything that was promised on the site, and then received. To the sea from the "Cedar" go min. 10 slowly, back, of course, longer. Although if you choose Alupka you need to be ready to walk up and down all the time. The hotel is located 5 min. from the bus station. It can be seen from the city that a lot has remained since Soviet times, and it could have been cleaner. Of the advantages of choosing Alupki, it is the Vorontsov Palace with a beautiful park, Mount Ai-Petri and the picturesque nature of the surrounding nature (as elsewhere in Crimea). Outside the hotel, we dined several times at the Veterok cafe, the prices are quite reasonable and, most importantly, delicious, but lunch at the DJ cafe on the beach was not impressive. We took several excursions from An-tour (you can buy it at the bus station), we liked everything, we did not regret it, I can’t say anything about others, we didn’t apply.
