I chose the hotel based on reviews and information on the official website. I stopped at the Yablochko Hotel on the official website, it is listed as "Gostiny Dvor Yablochko" The owner of the hotel met at the bus station, upon arrival at the hotel they immediately settled. Only 2 people manage the hotel, if taken as abroad in the same Montenegro or Greece, it can be equated to a villa, the owners called their hotel (private estate). I would call it a mini-hotel. But this is not so important, I'll start with the main thing!
I don’t know who wrote such reviews that everything was super and the ratings were high, but my review will be a little different. The information stated on the official website for the most part does not correspond to reality in the Service section, the indicated services provided by the so-called "Gostiny Dvor": 24-hour front desk, Express check-in / check-out. Dear administration of the Yablochko hotel, why do you write something that you don’t have in your opinion? As for a separate smoking area, there is none!
Tour service is also lame. When I asked the owners of the hotel about ordering an excursion, they told me that go to the travel agency and book there. Although in the same section Service there is an item Excursion service.

About food, this is generally a separate topic, I took only Breakfasts (large portions), but they are only called "big" but in reality to score hunger and this is not Hutsul cuisine (Hutsul cuisine is served in cafes / restaurants) but homemade ordinary food + tea in sachets. For dinner we went to the cafe "Kolomiyka" on the advice of local residents. Really real Hutsul cuisine + prices are not expensive and everything is very tasty!
The Yablochko hotel itself is small, cozy, good territory + the Standard category room met the stated requirements, there was only a table service, but it didn’t matter in the common kitchen it was enough. In the bathroom there was a lined liquid soap 08.2011 onwards. the expiration date is 18 months, it turns out that by 07.2013 the expiration date has already expired, it’s good that I took it with me.
If you do not take the hotel into account, then in general the rest turned out well. What is worth looking at the Carpathian mountains, what a beauty it is ! ! The city of Yaremche and the nearest settlements are very beautiful and have many attractions.
