Оставляем желать лучшего... We leave a lot to be desired...

Under the former director (Viktor Ivanovich), this base (formerly called SP Koroleva) was impeccable and really the best and exemplary among the rest. The first time they brought to the b / o in 1 year and until the age of 18 rested annually. The base had everything you need for a great vacation: a cafe-bar, a disco, a cinema, a TV room, a billiard room, a sports equipment rental, excellent tennis tables and a well-groomed sports ground and playground, as well as an excellent beach with an annual delivery of clean sand and neat , well maintained boats. Yeah, and most importantly, well-groomed houses !! ! Prices at this base were always higher than at other bases, but it was worth it.
For 10 years I didn’t go to the base, but when I myself became a mother, the question arose where to go with the child in the summer and, of course, the answer was not long in coming - to my FAVORITE base !! ! What was my surprise, or rather disappointment from what I saw is difficult to put into words.
It turns out that the base for 8-10 years already has a new director (more precisely, a deriktrisa), "thanks to" which the base every year becomes more neglected and deader (we traveled with a child for 2 years in a row this year we decided to go to another base located nearby).

Cons b / o "Meridian"
1. Territory overgrown with dense thickets + after dark there is no lighting throughout the base. Now imagine going to the toilet at night... I think everything is clear.
2. The beach of the base has not seen new sand for at least 5 years! And everything would be fine, only because the beach is located just below the base itself, the flow of water from the entire base after the rain flows into the river through the beach, thereby washing out the sand. The result - over the course of more than one year, on the beach in a certain place, a chute of considerable size was formed, the entire beach was mostly overgrown with grass, as, in principle, a reservoir overgrown with algae.
3. Rent of boats/catamarans 20 UAH per hour. (prices of last year) at what the boats are killed and leave much to be desired.
4. Shower 20 UAH/person by appointment and only on certain days. BUT even if you sign up, there is no guarantee that you will get there!! ! Last year I signed up with my husband, but because we didn’t get the required number of people who wanted to, we were denied this pleasure (like it makes no sense to heat water for the two of us, how !!! ), as a result, we made a shower from a neighboring house as vacationers and thereby resolved this issue (by the way, very many vacationers build showers near their houses).
5. Sports and playgrounds leave much to be desired, in a word, killed to the point of impossibility.
6. Toilets are just a separate issue, there are only 2 of them on a fairly large territory of the base, and everything else is cleaned 1 sometimes 2 times a day, and everything else, the drain system does not work in the toilets. Now you can imagine this picture with rare cleaning and no drain (I apologize for the detailed description).
7. And of course, one of the important factors is the lack of redecoration of the houses!!!
Pros:
1. The presence of a base near the base itself with a large assortment of goods, both grocery and industrial.

2. For those who do not want to cook, there is a cafe-bar where you can eat with the whole family (I cooked myself, but I heard from reviews that they cook not badly).
3. And of course, the wonderful air and nature in these parts, as well as excellent fishing.
Bottom line: this year the price is 70 UAH / day / person, as in my opinion, given the general picture of this base, it is very expensive, despite the fact that at other neighboring bases 40-55 UAH / day / person. It is a pity that recently, even before the pain, the beloved base "dies before our eyes" ((((
