и все таки Крым... and yet Crimea ...

For a long time I "hung" on the net, before choosing a boarding house or a sanatorium, I wanted to be good and inexpensive))) after choosing Ai-Todor, I read all the reviews and comments on this site, tortured everyone with my questions. . . ))) Thanks to everyone for the detailed answers! So I was ready for the trip! ) Our room was standard-north, not a sea view, of course, but also beautiful. I ordered only breakfast in advance, during the day we constantly went somewhere, so I had to try the cuisine of different cafes. . . for the most part, everywhere is dirty (((and in the cafe "Ai-Todor" they even managed to serve a stewed fly. . . brrrr (((in response to the remark, they very reluctantly apologized. . . The only place that has never (! ) caused any complaints for the cleanliness, speed and friendliness of the service was "Silver". Especially Maryana and Julia! Thank you once again, girls! Breakfasts are all good, the only thing was there were days when it was empty, and when it was thick, like cottage cheese, milk and dry breakfast in one day- well, I don’t like and don’t drink milk, and even cottage cheese, and my child too (((well, this is just my opinion. The cable car on the sea spoiled us all, it was too lazy to even walk on foot)) but my mother liked it very much, t. to. walking is hard for the elderly and small children! A lot has been written about animation here and before me, but I want to thank Sonya and Dmitry again! All the children were so delighted, my daughter is 8 years old, and she went to children's "dances" with pleasure. True, I did not understand why no one came to Viking, where they also tried to organize programs for adults. . . There were 2-3 people max. . it's a shame! maybe it was necessary to announce the program for the evening in a cafe? and they did their best! What was annoying was the presence of only two teapots in the boarding house! And at the same time, some irresponsible comrades managed to carry it back for a long time! Although, thank you, they never refused boiling water in the cafe, they were not indignant. In general, all the staff are friendly, they will tell you everything, explain with a smile. I changed the hryvnia a little on the train (at the normal rate), on the "Maratovsky" patch, the lowest rate ! ! even near the "Swallow's Nest" and on the "Glade of Fairy Tales" it is higher! It's a shame! Alupka Palace we went ourselves. We climbed Ai-Petri by car, descended on the cable car, so it seemed to be more interesting. We went on an excursion to Bakhchisaray, I liked it very much !! ! but after the excursion to the Livadia Palace I wanted to swear loudly and stomp my feet ((At first the bus was late, then the wrong sightseers were taken away, then our guide safely shoved our group to another group, eventually formed a group of about 42-45 people - a crowd! and all this is running, swooping! It’s not clear that everyone takes money willingly and a lot! Personally, I was very pleased with the presence of a very modest, but library! There you could also go to the Internet, also a nice little thing for those who don’t have a computer with them. On the sea, I was pleasantly surprised by the cleanliness of this very sea! - something very noticeable, the water at the beginning of the arrival was about 25 gr. , and at the end it was already 22, but we swam all the days, it’s not cold for us. And the air is simply indescribably fragrant, clean and my favorite cypress trees.... I liked , if it works out, then next year I want to going to come there.
