This post is going to be long and annoying. At first glance, the boarding house looks chic, especially since the ticket was bought for a very reasonable price. Our room was a triple corner room, a metal staircase from the second floor adjoined our outer wall. Since most of the vacationers were with children, the roar was heard all day. Soundproofing? This word is not known here. One door of the shower cabin did not work, i. e. the shower did not close. The rooms are dark and there is not enough light. TV set. . . with color reproduction, everything is completely bad, to put it mildly, it is impossible to watch. But this is not the worst. Our road to the boarding house took a long time and was very exhausting: bus, waiting, plane, serpentine. Despite this, on the first night, everyone noticed mosquito attacks, woke up bitten, bought a fumigator, the next night passed in silence, but in the morning two of our company had terrible bites all over their bodies, this fate did not affect me so much. There were characteristic paths from bedbug bites, my brother's bites were tight on his hands, face, in general, everywhere. They told the maid, she changed the linen, walked with diclofos through the sleeping places, said that she would inform the administrator. Time passed, and the administrator did not appear. They came to the reception themselves. They groaned, groaned, waved their hands, swore that this was the first time. We went with a steam generator, in the evening they brought poison from the city, for an hour we closed the processed room, then until two in the morning we tried to weather the smell, no one offered another room, and the smell never completely disappeared. The next day, the SES was called. The hostess came and kindly offered dinner. . . in response to the fact that we were arriving from the excursion too late, she said that dinner would be served to us anyway. . . I don’t know who wants to eat fatty pilaf at 11 o’clock at night. Now the epic begins. In fact, if it were not for such conversations throughout the rest of the holiday, this review would not have happened. They tried to convince us all the time that these were not bedbugs. There were no complaints, we are not conflict people. Poisoned, we sleep peacefully, thank you! But no! Upon arrival, a bottle of wine was bought, which we drank for a week. . accordingly, one can imagine the dose. Plus, there was a minor with us, he didn’t drink anything stronger than lemonade. Brother went for a corkscrew (man! You need to take care of girls sometimes). From this they concluded that we were bitten by water fleas (one of which was found by SES specialists, and the fleas themselves appeared after the mudflow came down), we took wine on our chest (I remind you: a standard bottle for a week), and woke up with a terrible allergy (wine same allergen, and to speed up the healing process, they drank loratadine and smeared bites with tincture of calendula). There is only one conclusion to be drawn: Sometimes it is better to remain silent and try to improve the living conditions of your guests! Give a compliment to the guest when he needs it, and not when you want! And don't try to make excuses! Nobody made any claims. Nobody demanded "justice". . though it was necessary!

I read the reviews and I don’t understand who all these people are, where they were and whether they were in Espanyol at all !!! ! Well, let's leave all the words they said on their conscience, you won't be good for everyone))) I'll start in order. We have been vacationing in Espanyol as a family since 2014 every July (this year we have already booked our favorite room).

I'll start in order. We have been vacationing in Espanyol as a family since 2014 every July (this year we have already booked our favorite room). The first visit was the discovery of this place for us. We rode a motorcycle and were delayed on the way, but despite the late arrival (we were there at about 12 at night), the administrator, the sweetest woman Vera Alekseevna, was waiting for us at the reception, met, placed, brought various salads, sandwiches, tea, coffee from the kitchen, in general met as my children, the feeling was that we had known each other for a hundred years)))
In the morning, a wonderful picture appeared before us, a view of the sea from the balcony of the room, the territory is clean, all planted with a huge number of flowers and cacti, you can write a separate article about the rose garden and cacti, there is a playground on the lower tier, a hot breakfast was waiting in the nightingale, the portion is the same as no need to dine , not to mention the taste of the food . A nice bonus discount on accommodation for bikers. The staff is responsive, on the third day the bartenders already knowing my love for morning coffee only when they saw that I left the room immediately approached and said that my coffee was waiting for me on the table at the bar)))
Maybe the people who wrote the reviews below do not know the rule that how you treat people is how they treat you. this is a separate song, the wife does not eat meat and fish and the cooks prepared a separate menu for her every day.
And what table every year the cooks make for my DR is a holiday of the stomach))) and again, every year the owners of the hotel give a gift from themselves, then a trip to Taigan, then a trip through the mountains in an UAZ.
In general, I can write for a long time, I can only say that Yulia (the owner of the hotel) is worried about her job and takes a very responsible approach to the selection of staff and chefs, and all accusations of incompetence are not justified, but the permanent administrator Vera Alekseevna is generally the kindest and mega-professional person, she is for everyone and vacationers and mom and girlfriend and grandmother for children)))
I recommend that everyone make sure of my words, and if something goes wrong, then in early July I will listen to your claims personally in Espanyol, see you in Crimea

We rested in July 2013. There are no mosquito nets on the windows. No soundproofing. It is impossible to sleep: mosquitoes, dogs, neighbors. Food for this price should be decent. Hot water only in the shower. Intermittent water, soapy, you can wait for 5 and 20 minutes, as you are lucky. It is a 10-minute walk to the beach through a line of vacationers who are pushed aside by passing cars (there are no sidewalks, there are merchants and parked cars on both sides of the road).

It is a 10-minute walk to the beach through a line of vacationers who are pushed aside by passing cars (there are no sidewalks, there are merchants and parked cars on both sides of the road). There are no trash cans on the beach. And the most interesting, the morning before departure. We were thrown out of the room at 7-30, asking to throw out the garbage, collect bed linen, although the departure was at 14-00. According to the agreement check-out at 12-00. In the dining room, the tables are very crowded, and in addition to everything from the dining room there is a door to the toilet and shower room. It's nice to watch while eating the girls, and not only, coming out of these doors wrapped in a towel. WHAT ARE YOU HERE???
Then advice:
Settle in the room at the time specified in the contract, then you will be evicted according to the contract.
Mosquito repellent.
Earplugs from dogs and neighbors.
A bucket for water will come in handy.
Dark glasses, from the sun and... what you don’t want to look at.
Leave money for lunch on the day of departure.
AND LET YOU BE LUCKY!!! !

In principle, I liked it, BUT . . when they kick you out at 6.30 in the morning in a boorish way "go wherever you want", all pleasant impressions are CLEARED! The administrator of Hispaniola blamed this moment on the servants, which, in principle, we will be drummed. Judging by the reviews, the problem has existed for a long time and they are not going to solve it.

Judging by the reviews, the problem has existed for a long time and they are not going to solve it. In the rooms, by the way, there is a memo, where the estimated time is 12.00 and the check-in time is 13.00 in black and white.
When buying a ticket in Rubizhne, they do not explain the difference between the rooms. As a result, the "Lux" turned out to be without a TV. TV is only in the new building!
On the day of our departure, the newly arrived grandfather from Cherkasy died. There is no ambulance there, at least at the reception the ambulance number is a mystery.

Rested with my husband and friends this year in early June. I liked everything very much, we lived in a new building. And friends in the old, but also satisfied. Rooms with private facilities, cool shower. The staff is very friendly! Walk to the beach literally 5-7 minutes. The room was cleaned when the sign was hung up, so we were always clean.

The food was at the highest level, very tasty, varied, and in large portions, my husband was delighted.
I completely disagree with other reviews, maybe in 2009 and 2010 there were some shortcomings and complaints, but this year the owners took everything into account and the rest is now like a fairy tale.
In a word, we were satisfied! We plan to come back here at the end of the summer.

We were in Espanyol this year with my 6-year-old daughter. Solnechnogorskoye is an ordinary resort village, like everything on the South Coast. On the plus side, it's really big! (compared to other villages) beach. We liked the boarding house, the food is super ! , there is a place for a child to play, the territory is closed, green, many flowers.

The rooms are clean, spacious, amenities in the room. They asked to clean (hung a special card) - cleaned on the same day. there were no problems at all. We went on an excursion to Dzhur-dzhur - a lot of impressions! My daughter did not want to leave, she asked to stay.

There is a playground, next to the tables under umbrellas, where we loved to spend wonderful evenings with neighbors from our building. It is a pity that the vacation flew by quickly, but next year we will definitely come to Espanyola again!

We managed to "thunder" in Espanyol in August 2009. Of course, if we bought a ticket not on the last day before departure, we would definitely look at the reviews on the Internet and go somewhere else, but alas. The adventure began even before we arrived at the boarding house: we got lost. We had a printout from http://talassa.

We managed to "thunder" in Espanyol in August 2009. Of course, if we bought a ticket not on the last day before departure, we would definitely look at the reviews on the Internet and go somewhere else, but alas.
The adventure began even before we arrived at the boarding house: we got lost. We had a printout from http://talassa. crimea. ua/espaniola.html, where the kind "authors" of the route did not bother to point out that we should also go towards Generalsky, and we searched for a long time under the scorching sun for the 18th house along Resort street. Neither the ticket nor the printout from the website contained the establishment's phone number, so Espanyol was not immediately found. What is typical: we talked with the owner of the site, and asked to write normally, so that it was clear where to go with a suitcase (and for someone else with children), but the request remained unheeded.
We noticed two major shortcomings and many smaller ones almost immediately: the lack of soundproofing between the rooms (not only conversations, mobile phones and noises from the administration of natural needs were heard, but even how small things were counted in the next room) and an open ditch picturesquely located next to the boarding house. sewer drain. We lived in the penultimate room on the second floor of the "new" building (this is the one in all the photographs), and the smell even reached us. Especially in the heat.
The staff of the boarding house "Espanyola" opened our eyes to such a thing as "housekeeping". Turns out it's trash and all. For 10 days, the floor, sink, shower cabin was never washed. Linen on the bed, of course, is not filled. “Cleaning” is not carried out every day, but when vacationers hang a special cardboard on the door handle. However, once the cardboard did not help: the garbage was never thrown away. We were also genuinely surprised when, during the “cleaning” of the room, the aunt did not notice the lack of toilet paper in our room. I had to look for an administrator and ask.
By the way, the administrator is a separate character. Moreover, by the end of the holiday, we still learned how to look for it on the territory! There is never an administrator in place, look in the kitchen area! Administrators are like soldiers!
This sweet lady found us at the beginning of our trip to Solnechnogorsk, when we were wandering through the steep streets with a heavy suitcase, she also gave us an advertisement for a boarding house (and we gave her one hryvnia in return) with the marvelous slogan “Summer in Crimea once and spend it need in Solnechnogorsk! ” Isn't this a hint that the rest in Solnechnogorsk may be the last? The next time we found her, when we remembered that we need to change bed linen sometimes! I had to come up only three times (and leave a note once). And once during the holiday it got cold, and we had to go for a second blanket (on arrival in a double room, there was one blanket, one spare pillow and one towel). We were sadly told that there were no blankets, but when we saw that we were not going to leave without a blanket, the administrator ran away and got a blanket! Old, with a burnt diamond from the duvet cover, and even with the duvet cover itself! And the duvet cover is not simple, but with real holes and the Z-D FIOLENT print! Well, where else can you sleep under this!
Separate remarks deserve convenience, more precisely, water. There is no water at night, so you can only go to the toilet once at night. During the day there is water, there is a lot of water, but its pressure is clearly not enough for all two floors. It often happens that in the process of washing, when you are already lathered, hot water suddenly suddenly disappears. After a couple of minutes, it appears, but the cold one disappears. After a few more minutes, you can wash further. It is especially great if you need to take a shower in the morning before an excursion or before a train. On the day of departure, all the water disappeared at 7 in the morning and appeared at half past seven.
Checkout time is 8 am - that's cool! I can imagine people who need to leave the room at 8 am, but it’s hard for me to imagine those who check in at 8 am. Therefore, in all the time we never saw anyone check in so early, but every day suitcases were heaped in the hall under the gloomy gaze of that "rested" who was left to look after them (apparently, to allocate a separate room for such cases, locked on key, an unheard of luxury for the owners of a boarding house).
Can't comment on the food, we ate elsewhere. (And, to be honest, in another boarding house. ) They promised home cooking, but on the very first day we saw sausages in dinner plates and decided that such “home” cuisine did not appeal to us.
And a few words about Solnechnogorsk itself. Quite a typical Crimean village. The beach is not bad, long and wide, but, like all typical Crimean ones, it is dirty. Eating in cafes on the beach is dangerous (poisoned immediately). But you can buy fruits and vegetables grown in the gardens of local residents. There is one small, but very material minus from choosing a small village: it is sometimes difficult and expensive to get to Alushta, excursions from Solnechnogorsk are 15-25 UAH more expensive than from the same Alushta, the exchange rate is much worse, the pharmacy is exactly twice as expensive. For the whole vacation noticeably "runs".
General impression: both the village and the Espanyola boarding house need to “grow up” for a good review. We have specially spent a lot of time compiling this text in order to explain to everyone that IT IS NOT NEEDED TO REST HERE! There are also decent boarding houses in Solnechnogorsk (we know for sure one), where they are ready to offer really worthy service. It seemed to us that the Espanyola administration simply did not know what a service is and what it is for: that water is needed not “in principle”, but to wash; that room cleaning should be done for the sake of cleanliness; that administrators should not dream of a cloak of invisibility, but deal with the prevention of emerging problems, especially since they are all the same for everyone.

It took a long time to determine where and how to relax - as a "savage" or in a boarding house, in the Crimea or Turkey. Finally, after the "sweet" reviews of the manager of one of the travel agencies about Espanyol, we decided - we were going to Solnechnogorskoye to Espanyola... We paid for one double room in a wooden cottage with amenities and a double room in a building without amenities.

It took a long time to determine where and how to relax - as a "savage" or in a boarding house, in the Crimea or Turkey. Finally, after the "sweet" reviews of the manager of one of the travel agencies about Espanyol, we decided - we were going to Solnechnogorskoye to Espanyola... We paid for one double room in a wooden cottage with amenities and a double room in a building without amenities. So, in anticipation of a wonderful holiday, we hit the road. . .
Alas, disappointment overtook us too quickly, as soon as we got out of the minibus and 30 minutes later crossed the threshold of our room (with amenities in a wooden cottage).
All the details below are my personal subjective opinion.
Minuses:
1. A couple of grocery stores throughout the village, where there is nothing else to buy except for mineral water, cigarettes and frozen legs;
2. As for a resort village of this type, the absence of an outpatient clinic is surprising (the nearest hospital and ambulance are 23 km away in Alushta! );
3. The beaches are free, so they resemble the rookeries of marine animals - at 7-8 in the morning it is problematic to find decent places closer to the water. What immediately catches the eye is dirt. Bulls, bottles, condoms and even women's tampons, that's what adults and especially children have to relax and sunbathe on (a 6-year-old kid of a friend who was vacationing with us found a used condom with the words: "Mom, I found a ball... ");
5. The road from Espanyola to the beach takes about 15 minutes, while you are constantly trying to run over local taxi drivers and UAZ drivers who take tourists to the Dzhur-Dzhur waterfall;
6. According to the assurances of the travel agency, there is always (! ) cold and hot water in the boarding house. Alas, I happened to feel hot water a couple of times early in the morning. The rest of the time had to be tempered. In addition, from about 23-00 the water was generally turned off. After complaints to the administrator, the answer was received that there was not enough boiler for everyone (the question is, what amenities did we pay for then? );
7. No noise isolation - you can hear everything that is happening around. Below, on the side, on the street - absolutely everything;
8. No one cleaned the rooms for the entire period of rest;
9. Entertainment in Solnechnogorsk is all located on the beach - bars, handeliki and more. Moreover, all the establishments are so stuck to each other that it seems that this is one big eatery.

Alas, disappointment overtook us too quickly, as soon as we got out of the minibus and 30 minutes later crossed the threshold of our room (with amenities in a wooden cottage).
All the details below are my personal subjective opinion.
Minuses:
1. A couple of grocery stores throughout the village, where there is nothing else to buy except for mineral water, cigarettes and frozen legs;
2. As for a resort village of this type, the absence of an outpatient clinic is surprising (the nearest hospital and ambulance are 23 km away in Alushta! );
3. The beaches are free, so they resemble the rookeries of marine animals - at 7-8 in the morning it is problematic to find decent places closer to the water. What immediately catches the eye is dirt. Bulls, bottles, condoms and even women's tampons, that's what adults and especially children have to relax and sunbathe on (a 6-year-old kid of a friend who was vacationing with us found a used condom with the words: "Mom, I found a ball... ");
5. The road from Espanyola to the beach takes about 15 minutes, while you are constantly trying to run over local taxi drivers and UAZ drivers who take tourists to the Dzhur-Dzhur waterfall;
6. According to the assurances of the travel agency, there is always (! ) cold and hot water in the boarding house. Alas, I happened to feel hot water a couple of times early in the morning. The rest of the time had to be tempered. In addition, from about 23-00 the water was generally turned off. After complaints to the administrator, the answer was received that there was not enough boiler for everyone (the question is, what amenities did we pay for then? );
7. No noise isolation - you can hear everything that is happening around. Below, on the side, on the street - absolutely everything;
8. No one cleaned the rooms for the entire period of rest;
9. Entertainment in Solnechnogorsk is all located on the beach - bars, handeliki and more. Moreover, all the establishments are so stuck to each other that it seems that this is one big eatery. And the cacophony from songs overlapping each other - from chanson to oriental motifs - does not allow you to relax and enjoy the atmosphere of relaxation at all;
10. The presence of only two pharmacies, where prices for medicines are 2-3 times higher than in the average pharmacy in Kyiv;
11. The furniture is old, terrible (the beds are like in a soldier's barracks), the doors are closed only after a good "pusher", a separate conversation about the bathroom - the shower stall fell apart right before our eyes, although the administrator assured us that it was new...
