Hotel ratings by criteria:
The hotel was chosen without reading reviews based on the fact that the first line and a gorgeous reef, which was a priority, I'm not a picky person.
As it turned out, the reviews are still a must read)
Of the advantages of the hotel, proximity to the sea, a chic rich reef, ideal for snorkeling, in principle, good food, although not wow, there was fish, squid, sometimes shrimp, chicken, you had to hunt for beef, but in principle, norms.
Of the minuses - like everything else.
Initially, everything was built on a grand scale, I willingly believe that 8-10 years ago it was a cool hotel that justifies its high-profile title.
But now, alas, everything is falling into a terrible decline, falling off door handles, staggering sockets, in the shower room only in slippers, that's disgusting, just barefoot.
Televisions are strange that they are not black and white, but one of the first models.
The room was NEVER cleaned for a week, even the garbage was not taken out.

The settlement was somehow wild, we had to run (namely, run) after the person who led the crowd to settle and led everyone into the room, and then very quickly, he started and ran away until he came to his senses) they said they would bring the suitcases, in the end I had to drag it myself, I didn't want to wait half a day.
With food is a different story, there are not enough tables, the staff are like sleepy flies, so moreover there are a bunch of free tables, and people are kept in line for half an hour, which doesn’t fit in the head at all, you still have to hunt for cutlery) eating turns into a real test in as a result.
There is no entertainment program from the word at all! I haven’t seen a single concert, stupidly yelling music from a column near the bar, the bar is also a separate story, bartenders with such a facial expression like they are miners, not bartenders, the staff, not all of course, but in canteens and bars it’s definitely boorish and always dissatisfied , in a bar they pour such rare shit, and then everything is poured into tiny one-hundred-gram cups, even if it’s Fanta, for example.
I have never seen such a beast! This is not 5 *, but 3 *, and then thanks to the reef and the first line.
The sunbeds are heavy, wooden, shabby, the mattresses are torn, and there are few sunbeds, if you didn’t take it at 6, then at 7 you will already be lying on the sand.
I have no desire to return to this hotel. But I like the area itself, the reef, again, is amazing.
