Rested in a boarding house 2 adults and a child of 13 years from 9 to 18 August 2013. Settled quickly. The photos on the site are completely true. Our number No. 2-4 is a two-room suite on the first floor of building No. 2. The room was clean, there was a refrigerator (clean, without foreign smells), an electric kettle (if you knew, you would not have dragged your own for 1000 km), a TV (it received 38 Russian and Ukrainian channels). Plumbing in the bathroom is cheap, but everything worked. The water was always cold, and hot somewhere from 7 to 22. Although people complained that there was periodically no water on the floors above, especially hot, so they bathed from kettles. Perhaps we were lucky in this, because there was a first floor.
The dining room is quite edible, the waitress girls always served quickly and very politely. During the rest, NEVER anything spoiled or stale was on the table.
The big plus of the boarding house is the proximity of the beach - just 5-7 minutes of leisurely walking. Yes, there is a staircase with 83 steps. But Gurzuf is all in the steps !!! ! And compared to some others, the stairs to the Korovin boarding house are, one might say, a gentle staircase.

We personally didn’t have a view of the sea from the window, since the first floor, but we constantly heard the sound of the surf. The high-rise residential building partially blocks the view of the sea.
It was very annoying for us that our room was closest to the entrance to the main building of the boarding house and the dining room. Accordingly, in front of our room, people gathered to talk, smoke, get some air. At the same time, all their conversations are clearly audible in our room, because the windows are open. Therefore, we became involuntary listeners to all conversations, gossip, disputes, quarrels, children's games, etc. If we go to this boarding house again, I will categorically refuse this room.
The beach has large pebbles. If this bothers you, stock up on aquashoes, like we did. At 10 o'clock in the morning, you can always take a place in the sun, and no one will walk on their heads there. Under canopies, the situation is different. My husband went at 7 am to take a seat in the shade. To do this, in exchange for guest cards, he took two sunbeds (wooden, heavy) and took a place by laying a bedspread on them. Moreover, this still did not guarantee that when you came to the beach, you would find your sunbeds. People threw off the bedspread, and took the sunbeds for themselves, explaining that it was hard for women to wear them, and the man would bring himself again. At the same time, you will no longer find a place in the shade - you will roast in the sun. But this is not a shortcoming of the boarding house. This is common human rudeness and dishonesty. The lifeguard on the beach, saying that this is a normal phenomenon here, gave out sunbeds again without cards (when returning the sunbeds, the cards are returned to you until the next time). Respect to the lifeguard on the beach - he managed to give out sunbeds and return cards, and watch the swimmers (when it was stormy, he urged his parents to take the children out of the water), and make sure that outsiders did not go to the beach. On the beach there is a shower with fresh water, a toilet, a dressing room, a mirror.
When checking out, the maid clarified when you can come to take the room, no one forcibly evicted us, they gave us coffee and tea to drink. At the same time, she politely said goodbye, wishing an easy way, asked if we liked them. As you can see, we did not even hear any rudeness from the boarding house staff. Everyone is very polite and unobtrusive. Although we were not in a very good mood, because there are a lot of negative reviews about the boarding house named after him on the Internet. Korovin

If we do not decide to change the geography of rest, then we will stop at the boarding house. K. Korovin again. Recommend it for vacation
