We rested for 15 days from mid-August to September 1.2008.
The first impression of the hotel is small, cozy, corresponding to the 3* category. But then comes the understanding that up to 3 * this hotel is like up to Beijing in a well-known position.
Much of what is listed in the description is missing. There are no water sports on the beach, the hotel bar and restaurant are closed, there is a safe in the room, but for a fee. No entertainment programs, no animation. The elevator breaks down from time to time. There is no air conditioning in the lobby, so it is impossible to sit there. TV works disgusting, there are no Russian channels. The bathroom in the room is untidy. An unwashed toilet with a broken toilet seat, a leaking shower, the smell of an old damp toilet. There are two 220V sockets for the whole room, and the one in the bathroom broke on the first day. We used one by buying a tee in a nearby store. But it had to be seen. To shave, you hold this tee with one hand so that it does not jump out and with all your heart you reach for the mirror in order to see your reflection at least out of the corner of your eye. Complete debility. There is a shabby table and two chairs on the balcony, and under the balcony there is a swamp, something has broken in the watering can. Cleaning - on request. They are not in a hurry to clean up themselves, even if you hang a "Make up my room" flag on the handle. Towels are changed every three days, linen - once a week. Towels - a separate song. "White" grey, always wet, with holes and fringe along the edges, with logos of different hotels. Asked for a fridge in the room. Costs 4 euros/day. Even in 4+ Nissi Beach, the refrigerator cost 2.5. Well, 4 so 4. But they also carried 4 days. They brought it, put it next to the room and that's it. I had to haul myself. There is a niche for a refrigerator in the room in the closet, but the socket does not work, or rather, none of the plugs I know, including the triple Cypriot ones, did not fit this socket. I had to use the same long-suffering outlet, and so that the plug did not fall out, they substituted a jar of cream.
By the middle of the stay in the "excellent 3 * hotel" they noticed that not even the fronton, above the entrance, there is no name of the hotel, much less a category.
The beach is good. Sometimes garbage collected in the water near the shore, and so much that they had to enter the water from Adams Beach. Sun loungers and umbrellas - free of charge, which in principle is of course a great achievement. However, the beach shower is a work of art. Rusted stand with dispenser button, which of course is broken. To turn on the water, you must either constantly hold the button, or put a homemade rubber band on the button, which prevents the button from snapping off, otherwise the water stops flowing.
Across the road Nissi Park is a really normal 3* hotel. Bar, animation, music, air conditioning in the lobby, you can sit and drink beer. Neat, white, pleasant. Well, the guests of Nissi Park still used our beach.
Near Adams Beach 5 *. I like it. It was enviable, especially considering that the cost of the room differed from ours by 37 euros. But we did our best not to be faithful to our hotel and hung out in Adams, only had breakfast and slept at our place.
The weather in August is extreme. Very warm and humid. You stick around all day. True, the body adapted by the end of the holiday and the stickiness was gone.
Everything is expensive. The fact that Moscow is one of the most expensive cities in the world is debatable after visiting Ayia Napa. Products are expensive: milk, sausage, yoghurts, fruits. Although the prices in restaurants are probably about the same.
Guide - none. A person who is only interested in your wallet. The excursions offered by the host company are primitive and immodestly expensive. The only excursion worth buying from a guide is the Grand Tour. The rest can and should be arranged independently. For example. An excursion to the singing (they are also dancing) fountains was offered by a guide for 72 euros per person, i. e. 144 for two. We took a bus, drove to Protaras for 6 euros, bought 2 tickets for 12 euros and went back for the same 6 euros. For all 36 euros. The savings are obvious.
Although what to be surprised. Everywhere so.
A really interesting excursion on a pleasure boat along the coast to Famagusta and back. Swimming in the blue lagoon. Nothing pretentious, just sincere.
Results. On the last day, the wife found out from a manicurist in Adams Beach that Janulla Beach had been rented out by the owners of Adams to see how it was. Naturally, no one was going to invest any money in anything, so everything looked like that. It's a pity that we got to this experiment. But this once again confirmed me in the thought that no matter how managers of travel agencies praise 3 * hotels, you still need to go to 4-5 *.
