Since the way home from Russia was still far away, it was decided not to rush, and make a halt immediately after crossing the border - that is, in Chernigov.
The reverse customs crossing both from the Russian side and from the Ukrainian side was characterized by increased speed - BOTH customs were passed in 21 (! ) minutes. At the same time, both customs officers kindly offered the lady, that is, me, not to get wet in the rain and not to freeze in the wind, and after presenting my identity, wait further in the car.

Since the overnight stay in Chernihiv was planned and booked in advance (the day before) through Notel24. ua, we phoned the young lady from the site, she, in turn, gave the phone numbers of the owners of our proposed home. The hosts, despite the fact that we arrived on Christmas Eve, were so kind that upon arrival in Chernigov they met us in their car and escorted us to our place of residence so that we would not wander around the night Chernigov.

The choice of place of residence was determined by only one criterion: budgetary (only for 1 night, and since no one knew in advance how long we would be toiling at customs, it is not known at all whether it was for the night or just for a couple of hours).

From the budget (300 UAH) there was only what I ultimately chose - Molex Apartments. This is a private small (only 3 rooms) apart-hotel in a new 10-storey building, on the 10th floor. At the entrance - the concierge. Nice new lift.

Each room has a fresh renovation, balcony, air conditioning. Plasma, microwave, refrigerator (there was even ice in cubes in the freezer), a set of dishes (cups, plates, glasses for wine, cognac, glasses, a knife, a cutting board), an electric kettle. A large bed (composed of two one-and-a-half, but competently, without a hole between the mattresses). Two leather armchairs, a large mirror, a hanger, a shoe cabinet. Separate bathroom, shower, new plumbing, hair dryer, heated towel rail.
Parking for a car - directly in front of the house (not guarded) and literally 3 minutes walk - paid. But we ventured to spend the night for free, and nothing terrible happened. Maybe potential intruders were scared off by the depressing appearance of our “girl” - it was raining heavily in the Bryansk region, and the dust of Russian roads settled on the forehead and sides of our typewriter quite thoroughly. HZ (who knows? ), but even though the concierge scared us the day before with uzhossy about torn mirrors and scratched hoods, to be honest, there were no forces anymore, so we just left everything as it is. Where they took themselves almost by force - this is an ATB store located a stone's throw away, where, in order to raise morale, among other things, a bottle of cognac was bought, which was subsequently successfully drunk and greatly contributed to the "dead" sleep until the morning.
In the morning we admired the beautiful balcony panorama of Chernigov, had a leisurely breakfast accompanied by "Pirates of the Caribbean" on TV and departed home.


This is my first experience of living in this kind of housing, and, frankly, I was a little worried. But everything turned out to be very wow. Despite the fact that they read on the business cards left in the hallway that the rooms are rented both by the day and even by the hour (this somehow confuses me, and that's it) - it's all the same, it's very clean around. Dishes are polished. Yes, maybe not the most luxurious bedding. But fresh, ironed, on the bed - an orthopedic mattress.

Of the minuses - the refrigerator is noisy, and the ventilation in the bathroom is noisy. In the morning there was such a light “drizzle” on the toilet tank - you see, the plumbers messed up something.
I was amused by a self-made sign glued with adhesive tape by the mirror in the bathroom with the text: “Do not wipe the mascara from the eyes with a towel” (well, this, you see, is “peredzhennya” for “hourly workers”). However, the subsequent sanctions for such a “wipe” were not indicated? .
But this is all such nonsense that it is even somehow inconvenient to write about it. But not writing is not entirely fair.

Summary: might well be for an unassuming overnight stay. +Give out docks to business travelers.

PS: I apologize for the quality of the photos. She was hungry and tired - her arms and legs were shaking, the pictures were not successful). But can you make a general impression?
