This hotel is designed for a quiet, relaxing beach holiday with trips on excursions or a break from them. The rooms are clean enough, the air conditioning works (we tried not to use it), towels are changed, the bed is made, the plumbing is working. In fact, we only came to the room to sleep.
Dinner in a restaurant on the menu in Russian, duration 1.5-2 hours. Breakfast is simple continental, no frills, but you won't die of hunger either.
The sea is super clean, the water is warm. Sea, sea..... Still want : -(
There is no entertainment at all in the hotel (isn't tennis fun? ), We managed to find 2 Russian-language channels on TV: RTR Planet and Planet Sport, their numbers are 6301 and 6300. There is a shelf with Russian detectives Marinina in the TV salon, etc.

The hotel's beach is compact, the sand is very clean. For those who paid half board, an umbrella and 2 sun loungers are free, sunbeds for money, although they never took money from us for them. Each room has its own place, the tag hangs on the umbrella. The municipal beach is large, the sand is clean. We only played volleyball there, sunbathed on the beach of the hotel.
For lunch (lunch) it is better to come on time by 12-30, those who come later will get cold dishes. The cost of 1 plate of hot 6 euros, drinks for a fee.
There is no Internet in the hotel....(of course, the director has it in his office, but you should not ask without extreme need) The lack of Internet scares the first 3 days, then you get used to it : -) For those who are in special need, there is 1 workplace in a nearby campsite (10 minutes on foot towards Terracina) at a wild price. In the center of Terracina, there is Wi-Fi in places, in the old town there is an Internet cafe. In the campsite you can buy cigarettes and local beer of 2-3 varieties. Italians don't drink beer, they prefer wine : -)
The shuttle to the city and back costs 4 euros per person, the shuttle to the station and back 8 euros. For a trip to Rome, it is better to buy a ticket called BIRG. BIRG - travel card for 1 day for the train to Rome and back + all public transport in Rome. The train is air-conditioned, so take a jumper with you. This also applies to tour buses.
Excursions are quite interesting, but we went to Rome 2 more times on our own in addition for a detailed study of all the ruins.
The wine list can be expanded by looking into the cabinets with wine in the restaurant, it is possible to find a very decent wine from 17 euros per bottle (the director's collection, not everything is for sale). Stocks of strong liquor such as whiskey are destroyed by Russian companies in 1 night : -) For wine, you can go to Terracina, the address of the store can be obtained from the hotel director.

P. S. Don't pull the cord in the shower unless you have to! This is in case it becomes bad in the shower.
