Rested in June 2017. Three adults.
We booked an apartment in advance so that there were two rooms with a kitchen. As a result, we got number 311 - in fact, an apartment, with a large entrance hall, two bathrooms, a washing machine and a dishwasher, and a fully equipped large kitchen. Each room has air conditioning. True, the balcony is small, resting against the wall of the neighboring house. There, just hang the clothes to dry. In general, the interior is not "hotel", rather, very "home".
The service is quite consistent with the category of the hotel - towels were changed every day, bed linen every three days. But we must be prepared for the fact that they may forget to throw out the trash from all the baskets. Soaps, shampoos/gels were not provided. Although washing powder and dishwashing detergent were available.

The location of the hotel is very good. Not the first line, of course (do not believe the ads), but everything is very close. To supermarkets and the market - 2 minutes walk, to the edge of the surf - 5 minutes. You will go to the left - Slovenska Plazha, to the right - the Old Town and Mogren Beach. The bus station is also 5-7 minutes.
Keep in mind that tourist buses do not drive up to the hotel (there are very few such opportunities in Budva at all - the streets are very narrow). So from the "New Boulevard" to the hotel go 150 meters, a little uphill.
The hotel restaurant deserves special mention. We only took breakfast. Breakfasts (buffet) did not shine with variety, but they coped with their task - to feed the half-asleep inhabitants - perfectly. If you leave early for an excursion, they give you a “dry ration”. Before the trip, we planned to have dinner at various places in Budva. But almost every evening they returned to Aquarius. Tasty, high quality, relatively inexpensive... Attentive and friendly attitude to the client, fast service. Do not be stingy with a small “tip” and you will be rewarded a hundredfold ; -). For example, in a restaurant on the waterfront for the same order, you will pay 20% more interest and you will have to wait longer. And they will bring you tap water for 1.5 EUR.
Probably the only “minus” of the restaurant is the cats, which are almost rummaging around on the plates. But the visitors themselves are to blame - they feed them constantly, and that's the result.
The hotel and restaurant staff are mostly fluent in Russian, there will be no problems. Wi-Fi is available on the floors of the hotel and in the restaurant.
In short, on our next trip to Montenegro, the Aquarius hotel is definitely on the list of options.
