We celebrated the New Year at the Kalev Spa Hotel.

The rooms are the most basic. For some reason, TVs are terribly slow.
Have you ever seen an LSD TV turn on 3-4 minutes after being pressed? I saw)) Probably this is a special Estonian Philips panel.
I don’t know how it is at other times, but the SPA is just a circus. In general, as we were told, this is not a SPA at all, but an old converted ESSR pool. There are now 2 steam rooms, one Finnish, in which half of the heaters did not work, or the oven was programmed. Cold in one word. The second steam room. All days I had to stand on the seats. Why? Yes, because the feet are cold. From above, the steam generator is barely working, and for some reason the wind is blowing from below.
For some reason, small Jacuzzi pools, located around the entire perimeter of the large pool, did not work halfway, that is, the water is warm, but let's say only 2-3 blow out of 15 jets ...
Another joke.

We were with a 3-year-old child and I got a scar on my forehead in the spa locker room. If there was a US country or a normal European country, I would ask to record my injury case. And here's the thing. The lockers there are not as usual - but one, let's say, square locker is closed by two metal (about 5 cm thick) doors. These doors are in the shape of the letter G. That is, the bottom G is your closet and the top G is your neighbor. I can’t imagine who came up with such a thing ...Duck ...when I was changing clothes, a neighbor also came. Opened my closet. Of course, I dig below, dress the child, etc. Having previously felt the danger, I asked my neighbor to open the door completely so that I wouldn’t bump into it with my shoulder or head. But everything happened as always)) after I finished putting on my son's pants, I start to get up. But frankly, I didn’t think that my son was pulling the neighbor’s door (upper) with his upper hand.
I flew headlong into the corner of the IRON door so that I thought that, thank God, it was the upper part of the head and not the eye or ear. In short, take a helmet to the locker room))) If you accidentally get the bottom box and a neighbor from the top one comes, you can leave either with a broken head or a torn ear)))
Yes! I forgot to say)) Estonians have forgotten the great and mighty. Or not ...rather so ...They just don't want to talk to you (I don't even know why).
In a word - we came with our inflatable ring for a child to the SPA paddling pool. The son is playing ...having fun . . but then it occurred to him to ride down the hill. He let go of the circle and ran up the hill. The circle was grabbed by some girl of about 5 years old. Well, I don’t think it’s greedy ...The dog is with her ...let him put on ...They seem to have trouble with circles in Estonia. Duck here ...the son swept ....went around the circle ....but the girl does not give back. Nearby stands some 30-35 years old young man.
I speak first in Russian "This is our circle. Please give it back to my child.

"In response, silence and a proud turn of the head in the other direction. Some kind of Estonian goat with a baby ran up to this man. And blinking at me, he asks something. Well, as I understand it, my question in Russian about the circle caused confusion in the family farmers)) I speak English - "This is our swimming game. This is our swimming ring" In short, the whole family turned their backs to me and went somewhere to the locker rooms ...English caused even more misunderstanding among the villagers. Well, I didn’t beat my face ...although I wanted to ...but I thought ...the country is not mine ...suddenly they will deport))) in short, I started looking for the “real Est”. I was told that in Estonian, asking for a circle would be something like "See he meie asi" (you have to poke at the thing). I went to the locker room with the full hope that they would understand me, but I found my circle on the edge of the pool. In short, if you want to go to Estonia, know!
That there are quite a lot of stupid people who know only Estonian. At the same time, he is proud of his "bankrupt country" and not very cultured))
In principle, everything went well, but some things just exceeded my patience.
Will I go here again? I don't know yet. Some kind of extreme tourism turned out ...
Yes, and I saw some kind of panic at the door of the hotel. They take out things from a private car to the hotel for the St. Petersburg residents, and inspectors stand in parallel and draw a fine for incorrect parking. She only stood for about 2 minutes ...We stood at the reception and the young man said that due to the fact that "well, there is nowhere for Estonia to take money" sometimes they do this. Although it is strange that at the door of the hotel in 2 minutes you can get a fine. In short, with parking there is some kind of tops. There are 20 signs on one pillar and you can tell the hell if you can or can’t stand at this hour and here.
I'm so kaat that it's better to mine a bit extra to pay and go to another country.
Although the city is beautiful and the beer is sweet with ears at the Beer House.
