My review of the rest in the sanatorium "CRIMEA" pgt. Partenit I will start with the minuses, i. e. negative moments, because for me they were more than positive, unfortunately.
The voucher booked by me at the end of last year was with the “increased comfort” category. Arriving at the sanatorium on September 14, the first disappointment awaited me - I was told that there are NO superior rooms at the moment.
My mood immediately deteriorated, because. Expected one thing, but offered another....When asked why there are no rooms of my category, if the ticket is booked, they answered “we don’t know..... ” Strange, isn't it? They offered to live 5 days in the standard (Building 9). I paid for my stay in full. There was nothing left to do but to agree..... The number was not distinguished by frills, everything was like in the USSR. The inconvenience is also that it is impossible to completely unpack your things, so that later you can pack everything in a bag again and place it again in a new room.

An important point is that when I came to the initial appointment with the doctor, having learned that I would be moving to another building in 5 days, I heard great dissatisfaction about why I came, when I move, then I will visit the doctor in the new building. My arguments that I don’t want to “lose” days on the procedures worked, and I was prescribed ALREADY TWO PROCEDURES (magnets and electromassage) !!!
After 5 days, hoping for the best, I came to receive my expected "superior" room. I was sent to another building No. 4, they asked me to pay about 600 rubles, which I did (although it aroused suspicion that the “high comfort” room differs in price from the “standard” for a period of 21 days by only 600 rubles! Something here not so, I thought…). What was my disappointment when, having entered the new room of BUILDING No. 4 on the 12th floor, I did not see ANY differences from the previous one !!! ! Disappointment repeated and multiplied. There are 3 faceted glasses, 2 plates, an old small TV in the room…. . There is no kettle, I don’t even talk about a hair dryer… The linen looked like it was used for more than one month without washing by many vacationers. The towel just stank, I'm not afraid of this word! I asked me to change at least the towels. The lovely maid came to meet me! Thanks her! The toilet paper is dark grey, like sandpaper. In the toilet in the dining room there was a sign SHAMED - "do not use toilet paper for hands, there is a dryer! " I may not want to dry my hands with hot air, but they tried to refuse me this too!
Two elevators in the building (for 3 and 5 people) regularly failed in turn, and I think they are “ninety on Saturday... ”. They were repaired quickly, but the frequency of breakdowns was alarming. The staff in the buildings, the doctors, are very unfriendly, with rare exceptions, I would even say unfriendly, showing with their whole appearance THAT THEY DO NOT CARE WHAT I LIKE HERE OR NOT. They talk with arrogance, as if they accept me in their house for FREE. At a doctor’s appointment in the new building where I was moved, they flipped through my card filled out by another doctor, silently wrote something, and asked if I wanted to do a cardiogram? Everything is in order with my heart, so I refused, said that I had problems with my back, I would like to get a massage. I was sent to the post of nurses, they said that they would send me where necessary. And they sent…… Procedure - NUGA-BEST bed. This dubious procedure was prescribed without examining my state of health, without agreeing with me, which suggests a low qualification of a medical worker who SHOULD KNOW about contraindications, in which the use of Nuga Best is in principle prohibited. I did not tempt fate and did not attend this procedure. I have never been able to find a doctor during working hours in the office. This is where my "treatment" ended. I naively hoped that in the sanatorium I would have time to visit at least such doctors as a gynecologist and a dentist, because. I work and can't visit them at home. But they quickly had to forget about their desires. There was no mention of this!
On the territory there is a phyto-bar with various types of tea and herbal decoctions. This is a paid pleasure....30-60 rubles for a glass of different sizes, jam is also offered, 50 g for 50 rubles. For example, in other sanatoriums, herbal tea is prescribed by a doctor and, according to the sanatorium book, this pleasure is released free of charge as a healing procedure. Another disadvantage is the lack of a pump room.

Before that, I visited the Yalta sanatorium in Yalta, Pirogov in Saki, everything was at a very good, decent level! There is something to compare.
In the dining room, everything is tasteless and unappetizing, from fruits - apples and plums (a couple of times). ALL. It's grape season! Vegetables - one circle of tomato on a lonely plate OR a circle of cucumber... I brought vegetables with me from the market. I love them. But potatoes are the main side dish in all dishes! And in the first course a full plate of potatoes. This sanatorium in the Crimea!! ! And not in SIBERIA or Alaska! Mustard, sauce, vegetable oil, napkins were also brought with them! Paper napkins were cut into 2 pieces. I'm just SHOCKED!! ! It's amazing that in the 21st century everything here is the same as it was 50 years ago! It seems that people do not even suspect that everything around has been different, comfortable and convenient for a long time. Sad is not the right word. . .
Terrible traffic situation! From partenit to Yalta there is a small bus like "Bogdan", which is packed to capacity, the last flight from Yalta at 19-15. The interval is once per hour. In Alushta about the same.
At the meeting - the bag is kindly taken to the Reception Department by an electric car for free. And no wonder, the territory is 42 hectares. But when you leave for delivery to the checkpoint you need to pay 100 rubles! Somehow unkind.
BENEFITS - yes, they are, but they are few. The sea and the beach are close. The water is transparent. Bear Mountain nearby. The air is amazing. Nature has tried. The area is in good condition. The club shows new films for free. Artists come for money, this is also good as a cultural program. BUT THIS IS ALL THE GOOD I CAN SAY. I don’t want to come here anymore until everything I wrote about changes.
