общага. три звезды. hostel. three stars.

The site contains wonderful photos that are quite true. According to reviews in booking. com, there is a feeling that paradise awaits you. What awaits us in reality? I will list you point by point. 1. The hotel was built a long time ago, the rooms apparently have not been renovated since the moment of construction, according to my purely personal feelings, about 25 years old (the air conditioners there have wired control panels, an electric stove with pancakes like my grandmother had from the times of the USSR). 2. poor scoop-format design with white tiles and well-worn wallpaper 3. squeaky broken-down sleeping beds, after one night your back starts to hurt 4. absolutely flat pillows 15-16 millimeters thick, one large sheet as a blanket on a double bed 5. an ingenious architectural solution to place the window in the bathroom at eye level and bring it out into the common corridor (imagine how you walk along the corridor, and then a gas otaka begins from the half-open window and the corresponding uterine sounds of a Russo-tourist who has overeaten peaches - what, huh? ) 6. The windows of some rooms overlooking the sea also have a view of the street with bars and restaurants, and at 2 am you can be awakened by cheerful cackling and shouting `Mishan, EPT, let's roll more grappa! ` 7. Teflon pans, but apparently have the same age as the hotel itself 8. Internet can only be used within a radius of 3-4 meters from the reception.
Next, I’ll just go over the resort itself, the hotel seems to be not even to blame here. All beaches are paid, the discount that the hotel gives seems significant, but for a family of three you will have to pay 16 euros (this is discounted) per day just to swim in a small dirty cove next to the stinky river flowing out of the city (I suppose all the storm water flows into it), moreover, on the beach, children are not allowed to build sand castles and dig holes and make backwaters. The city gives the impression of a noisy, dirty business town living its own life, in which no one cares about you.
In defense of the hotel, I can say that I got a very sympathetic manager and his concern for my problems was very touching. Nevertheless, it is very strange that for such pregnant money the hotel is almost 100% full and there are no available rooms. I can give only one explanation for this: travel agencies cooperate with the hotel and sell tours. Upon arrival, the client has already paid for everything and he simply has no options. This idea is indirectly confirmed by the fact that there are about half (if not more) Russians in the hotel. How can you pay that kind of money for this scoop, and even then prepare the whole vacation yourself - I just don’t understand.
