We recently returned from a vacation at this boarding house, I want to go back.
As for the rest, we rested in a superior room, good furniture, clean walls, a clean bath, snow-white linen and towels, a balcony and a sea view. I posted pictures of my room.
The beach is very far, but they carry it there. Here, some vacationers complained that they were late for the bus and they were not personally picked up. Why complain? The driver does not live in a boarding house, he has his own work schedule, you need to come everywhere in advance, any delay is at least uncivilized and your problem.
Of course there are a lot of people on the beach, but you will always find a place.
Food - very tasty food. everything is always different, dishes for every taste and fish were given both beef and chicken, in general, here, on a five-point scale, a solid 5.
When we arrived at the boarding house, entered the territory, I didn’t really like some of the old buildings, but this is everywhere. Then I got used to it.
Who should have a rest in this boarding house? Exclusively for the family, young people have nothing to do there.
Our room did not have air conditioning, but even without it it was not hot, the balcony was open and the sea air blew well.
Cleaned often, linen changed.
I will try to briefly outline all the pros and cons, so I'll start:
"+"
1. These are the lowest prices for accommodation + meals in Yalta
2. Friendly staff, but only maids and canteen workers, administrators will be attributed to "-"
3. Clean area.
That's probably all.
Now about the cons "-"
1. We lived in an ordinary standard 2-room suite, the view was partially on the sea, this saved the situation, the wallpaper was terrible old gloomy, the beds were creaky and uncomfortable, the plumbing was leaking, for 2 weeks of stay there was a change of linen 1 time. Neighboring rooms with a view of the construction site and the garbage, by the way, the construction site is open all day until late at night, so you can forget about daytime rest, the guests complained, but it's all useless.
2. Transfer (unless of course it can be called that) a "bogdan" type bus and a minibus that take people after breakfast for an hour, after lunch and take them for lunch for an hour, but they take them for dinner from 17.30 to 17.45 i. e. in 15 minutes there are 150 vacationers, which is physically impossible with a capacity of "Bogdan" of 35 people, if you miss the bus, no one will help you, so to speak, "not their problem. " We were late for 5 minutes once, tried to call the administrator, the girl mumbled something indistinctly and that's it. As a result, 6 people, including a child and two pensioners without money and a phone (since normal people do not take this to the beach in the hope of the promised transfer INCLUDED in the price of the ticket) turned out to be standing at a bus stop in the very sun (13.55), Fortunately, people in Yalta do not the responsive ones who gave the phone so that we could call our boarding house were transferred, but the administrator did nothing from the second call, although no, she informed the Senior Administrator Natalia about this, who was also unable to make an operational decision to help her guest in this situation, I want to remind you once again that there were elderly people and a child among us, why, for example, not call a taxi on behalf of the boarding house, not every taxi driver (they are also rare in the beach area) agreed to drive us without money in the hope of paying upon arrival, and 6 people can't fit in one car. As a result, we still ended up in a boarding house, having reached the taxi, which the locals called for us, and the senior administrator could only shrug, saying that we should not be late for the bus, I think this is not a qualified work of a person capable of making operational decisions in his direct work.
3. Now about the beach, everywhere they write about YOUR beach, it’s far from being the beach of this other Eagle’s Nest sanatorium, but the Chekhov road accident rents it, and Yalta residents can visit it by presenting a residence permit for free, so all these people should be accommodated on a piece of land land with a total area of about 1.5 hectares. In turn, Enterprising lifeguards, they are the access office on the beach for a certain bribe, they let additional people from among the passing ones, paid sunbeds 15g (60 rubles) wooden, and 30g (120 rubles) plastic, without buying which you won’t get into the shadow zone, so such is the use of the beach, many of the boarding house went to the city beach "dolphin" and to the Livadia beach, it is better to walk a little and lie down, and not sit in the cordon of tourists and smell the fumes.
4. These are excursions, not even by themselves, countless of them at lunchtime are offered in the dining room, by a very attentive woman who is ready to choose for you according to your taste and budget, but your missed lunch or dinner, well, for example, an excursion to Sevastopol with 10 am is calculated for 6 hours, which means you won’t get to lunch, and they won’t give it to you and they won’t return the money, they say it’s not accepted, you can of course strain your nervous system to quarrel and get your lunch for dinner, and dinner for breakfast.
5. The bar is open until 22.00, it is not clear why people are all walking on the embankment in the evening.
6. There is no first-aid post at all, completely so give yourself first aid as you want and wherever you want, but for Russians and Belarusians this is generally impossible.
In a word, if you citizens want to relax cheaply and with problems, then this boarding house is for you, although the Rossichi company has an excellent sanatorium "Ukraine", where the price-quality ratio will pleasantly surprise you a little more expensive, but to the south (in Miskhor) and closer to the sea and the service is better, when we rested there in 2009, we were delighted and nothing marred the rest, but here, as they say, they reached for cheapness.

House of creativity of writers named after A. P. Chekhov. Decent stay for a low price.
Of course, you can look for flaws always and in everything. And this hostel is no exception. But on the other hand, I always felt at home there, probably due to some minor shortcomings.
I found the boarding house almost immediately. In Yalta, it is probably very difficult to get lost, because you don’t have to look for north-south or west-east by the stars. Everything is much simpler here, top-bottom and right-left. And the path to the boarding house is definitely up and up, and a little to the right.
I arrived earlier than the check-in time, the room was free and I was settled earlier without any problems. The PC number met my expectations. In principle, a junior suite is the same as a PC only with air conditioning. The open balcony replaced the air conditioner well. Moreover, that-that, and the air around is just awesome. Well, how could it be otherwise such a diverse vegetation of the park and the sea, which is visible from the balcony, play a role.
The beach of the holiday home is far away, but you can walk. Delivery there and back 2 times a day 8.45-12.30 and 14.30-17.30.
The staff is quite polite and patient to the requirements of vacationers and, most importantly, adequately responds to comments and suggestions. For me, this is one of the most important indicators of a comfortable stay.
The city of Yalta cannot be disliked at all. Sea, mountains, beautiful promenade.
And in general to have a rest, not to work.
Have a wonderful holiday, good weather, interesting excursions, pleasant acquaintances and, most importantly, GOOD MOOD!
