Good 6.0

Old unkempt hotel right on the waterfrontThe hotel is very worn out. The room has two rooms, a kitchen and a bathroom. The rather large kitchen only has a sink, fridge and two very dirty glasses. And empty cupboards. In the "living room" there are two terribly uncomfortable chairs, a table and a TV - it looks very empty. The bedroom is ok, but the air conditioner did not work. The bathroom had a dirty toilet, which was not cleaned even despite the request, and a broken shower, splashing water on all sides. The towels were old, stained and very full of holes! Breakfast was very good, albeit "cheap", but for the sake of it you can definitely wake up early. The elevators worked very poorly and were very frightening. Swimming pool with ice water - it is impossible to swim there in the off-season.

Review score 5.2

It's just awful There are bubbly wet streaks on the walls, rust on the ceiling and joints with the wall (streams on iron guides). Everything old, wretched, falls off. The dirt in the sink is age-old - just a black rim around the drain. Even brushing your teeth was disgusting. The area is large, but there is no sense - in the "living room! There are only 2 chairs and a table, and on the wall there is a small TV set (there are a lot of Russian channels). And that's all - no sofa, no kraesla. And there is no TV in the bedrooms - but the entrance to the bathroom right from the bedroom. And it would have been good if it hadn't been for the fact that the door was "on snot" and the paint on it was peeled off from old age. There is a paid safe in the closet ... I have never seen such a "miracle of technology" in my life - there a huge keyhole ... you need a key to it like Pinocchio's))). In the "kitchen" only a kettle and a sink. Cooking (boiling, frying) there is impossible. And in general, the feeling that all the doors are about to fall off. this hotel still remembers Stalin ... to the young ... As a result, they changed to a room in the Flamingo hotel - it's simple, but clean, neat and comfortable.

Exceptional 9.3

Small cozy hotel.Not far from the airport, literally 10 minutes by car. Room for 2 bedrooms with a kitchen. The plumbing is a bit old. 2 large balconies overlooking the beach. Nice beach across the road. There are few people, the water is very warm. Breakfasts are poor, but you won't stay hungry. The dinners are disgusting. All in all a good cozy hotel. The Internet is free.
