2. There is no beach, it seems to be there, but there the pioneers and adult vacationers are kicked out, it is possible to ride a bus to the spit.
3. Dining room - if you are reading a positive review, this is an employee. The main menu is porridge, for breakfast even 2 porridges, from vegetables only a quarter of a cucumber or an eighth of a tomato. Meat is a maximum of 20 grams, then as a cutlet where 90% of bread. Instead of cheese, a cheese product, margarine instead of butter. The website lists the Swedish table, but it is not in sight.
The food was more or less tolerable - last year it was worse. The young administrator was sitting in her closet together with the pedros-schoolers (I can’t say otherwise than the pedros). They sat right on the table with their asses shutting the window. Neighborhood with the pioneers frankly irritated.
At night, under the windows, youngsters were buzzing, most likely the left one - they ate vodka, yelled (this is around 3-4 in the morning), i. e. there is no protection of the territory - the whole sanatorium is like a passage yard - whoever wants to come in.
An adult voucher with treatment for 21 days in a junior suite (see the description of the room above) costs 6315 gvn. (~$790) and the good thing is that they didn’t have much to treat anyone - it was possible to go through the procedures like a human being. If not for the treatment, I would have thought 100 times and chose the same Turkey.
The sea partially smoothed out the nasty impression of the rest with a pleasant temperature (27-29C) and shallowness - it was good for children. In general, holidays in Lazurny are traditionally disgusting - they don’t want and don’t know how to work . . but it’s a pity, they will have to go to Turkey, apparently, the Turks need money more.
It is written on their stand that the sanatorium earned money from vacationers last year under 100 gvn lemons, spending about a quarter of them on taxes and service staff . . 75 lemons were still not enough to put the room stock in order.
So we went to the clinic in private, went to the doctor and he prescribed the necessary treatment for us. You can be sure that the treatment is cheap and of high quality. Somewhere for 600 hryvnias (2500 rubles) I was treated for 15 days (6 mud, 5 pearl baths (it's a thrill! ), 10 massages of the collar zone (and that's it! ), 4 foot massages (and this is generally flying away! ), 12 inhalations , 7 sessions of throat treatment with ultrasound and 2 quartzization of the throat and nose! ). The most expensive of these is massage and big mud (about 90 rubles each). Special thanks to the staff of the hospital doctors, nurses and nurses. I must say they are very polite, correct, they will always help, prompt, they don’t refuse money, but they don’t ask for it either. There is also a pump room with mineral water (about 3.5 rubles a day), but it is only for low acidity. By the way, there you can measure the acidity.
Now to numbers. Upon arrival, we were given bed linen (by the way, quite good), soap and a tiny roll of toilet paper, about 6-7 cm in diameter, for three for 15 days! Cool! By the way, other private owners on the territory of the boarding house (building No. 13) generally have toilet paper only for VIPs, and what should the rest do?
Then we went to the room. At first, we were offered a very small room, which could barely fit a cot (extra bed) between two beds. We asked to be transferred to another room. This one turned out to be bigger, but later we found out that it was an insectarium. Have you ever lived in an anthill? It was worth throwing a box of juice or a stub into a bucket and a whole armada of ants immediately rushes there. So we immediately took out such garbage to the street, and judging by the filled bins, not only we. In the evenings, mosquitoes, flies, moths flew to us, spiders lived in the room. One evening, returning from a walk, we saw a hefty centipede. I didn’t have time to kill her, and in the morning three fresh bites were found on my mother’s arm. Red swelling like from a mosquito and in the center of each two red dots. I don't know who bit the centipede or the spider. Spiders also lived on the territory (with legs about 6 cm long). Every night, going to bed, I covered my ears with hair, I was afraid that some kind of creature would crawl in.
Bedside tables were broken in the room, mattresses were rusty. The mattress I slept on was divided by two stiff springs, so I had to curl up in the middle. At my request, he was changed, but they have many of them, he is not alone. Change of linen once a week, cleaning every other day.
Now about the canteen. No words, only obscene! I am far from a spoiled girl, I ate a lot in different canteens, for example, in a student one, but THIS !!!! ! First, portions. If the soup is still normal, but the meat in the second (if you can call it that) needs to be examined under a microscope. They put sunflower oil on the table, it's just laughter. One day the three of us tried to make ourselves a salad. Each received 5 drops (honestly, this is not an exaggeration, exactly 5 drops each). By the way, it was a serving for 4 people! And don't ask, they won't bring it! Summer, July, south - there are sluggish cucumbers on the table, almost no tomato, bananas instead of fruits, and the compote looks like water in which plums have been washed in color and taste. You will wait at least 15-25 minutes for your second portion. Generally, they said that they have a service rate of 45 minutes. Are they cooking barbecue? I am such a person, I can eat, I can not eat, and sometimes I felt hungry and lost 2 kg. And my dad, in general, was dying of hunger. The only thing that was tasty and edible was pastries for dinner. Since we did not have breakfast on the day of arrival, like all Muscovites from the morning train, we asked the administrator to postpone breakfast for the day of departure. You should have seen her face, she was all petrified and said that they can not adapt to every train. Now for some fun math. Breakfast costs about 200 rubles, in a boarding house about 600 people a month, most of them are Muscovites, so they skip one meal (if you can call it that) (200 * 600 = 120.000 rubles). Not bad right?
Now about the good, in the boarding house there is a recreation center where you can watch a movie for 20 rubles. Quite a decent cinema hall and only new films, billiards, table tennis and a library (books only for those who stayed in Azure itself). Concerts are often held. There is a disco outside.
The territory of the sanatorium leaves much to be desired, but apparently it is ecologically clean, as lizards and hedgehogs live there. I saw it myself. And a little further, behind the Berdyansk sanatorium, even hares.
The beach from Azure is really dirty, as everyone says, and, well, very small. By the time you get to the buoys, you'll be tired. There are free sunbeds. You can walk to the beach of the sanatorium Berdyansk, but it's far away. There are also sun beds and a clean, deep sea.
Conclusion: housing and food are bad, treatment and cultural events are good.
As for amenities: this is a separate "song". I lived in the 5th building, at first I was taken to a 2-bed room on the 1st floor. When I saw this room, I really felt bad, I thought I would leave on the same day... some kind of bedbug, with old, old furniture, looked into the toilet, was horrified, the plumbing was dirty and beaten, the paint was falling off on the walls and ceiling , some kind of dust is pouring right on my head, all in terrible streaks... I was in shock. But the last detail of this entourage finished me off: in the room itself, right next to the bed, linoleum was ominously turned away at an angle on one side... And this is with my injury?? ! so that I inadvertently caught on there and injured myself even more? In general, I said, either they put me in a normal room, or I photograph all this and send it to my trade union committee in Kyiv. They settled me on the 3rd floor, in a tolerable room. And like such care, you see, they showed me, offering the 1st floor at the beginning: you have a leg! how will you go up to the 3rd floor? (There is no elevator in this building). Nothing, I think, this is just what we need: exercises for my leg, I need to develop it.
As for food, in principle, it was edible, sometimes it was even tasty)) but in the end, their feeding became so boring that I sometimes arranged forays into the city.
Sea. I was at the end of October, it was quite cold (I even took out a jacket from my suitcase), so there was no beach for me, but I went to the near sea (i. e. the bay) to breathe in the sea air. Basically, it didn't matter. The main thing is that I rehabilitated my leg)))
I remembered one more thing. There, at that time, an indoor pool was being built, the staff boasted that it would be soon and chic. I wonder who knows if they completed it?
