Hello girls.

Like everyone here who writes on his own (I do not mean the reaction of the administration to the bad reviews and praises of their own employees who pretend to be vacationers) I want to share my impressions of being in this sanatorium.

That's the truth they say, don't believe any reviews, see for yourself ...and, my husband and I went to this sanatorium. I try to put everything on the shelves, objectively, although sometimes I want to add emotion.

Administration.

I can't write anything bad, but unfortunately nothing good either. They met us ...no way. Entering the hall, we did not find anyone at the reception. The security guard called for a long time and tried to find someone, but "it was useless because lunch" as he said. We left Lviv, tired after a day in the compartment, and warned the female administrator in advance that we would arrive at 13:00-13:30, but it was in vain.
As a result, a girl came running, gave us the keys and offered to move in.

At the request for the initial review of the room, we were denied due to the fact that "there are no more rooms. " My husband and I were surprised and followed the route indicated to us.

Later, of course, we "scouted" that the rooms were, but some of them were empty, some were under repair, as evidenced by white traces of whitewash on all floors.

Junior Suite

Entering the tiny room (junior suite, as we were told), we wiped slightly. Girls! ! ! ! ! You can't call it a number, although it's also a junior suite ...

Everything is small, the repair was a long time ago. The lock closes at one turn, we went with a laptop, afraid to leave in the room. The door in the shower closes badly and there was a smell of mold. On the tile fungus.
Later it turned out that the shower can be taken only early in the morning and late in the evening, because "baths are taken for procedures, there is no pressure" and so almost all day.
If you miss the planned hot water - you walk dirty and dumb like a pig in Korney Chukovsky J

The room had a cupboard with glasses and a decanter, a pouf, a creaking bed, spoons and forks (why not understand) and a window that does not close tightly, with curtains that do not close well.

But we worried in vain, still no one would watch us because the view from the window was on the construction site (half of this sanatorium has not yet been completed) and downstairs walked and loudly cursed workers. Later it became clear that they work all day from 7 to 17 and we have to live with it ...

Our room was near the treatment rooms. We were happy at first, but then we were very sorry! Noise, commotion, constant queue for procedures. Grandmothers' babbling about politics in this queue, loud coughing, farting, etc.
There are a LOT of elderly people in this sanatorium, probably on vouchers from councils or trade unions.

Before our arrival we did not clean, although we saw a girl with a vacuum cleaner and a bucket of some chemicals several times while "settling", but our request to at least put out the dust was not granted. We decided that we came to rest and receive only positive emotions. With the thought that they would still clean up tomorrow, we went to a restaurant.

Restaurant.

Immediately upon arrival we were sent to the restaurant to receive food stamps. We didn't find him right away, we had to go through a cold hall and a "tropical garden", where we quickly froze. The cold and insane humidity in this garden made itself felt on the second day, but that's it, maybe someone is hardened.

Right from the doorstep of the "restaurant" we realized - this is a dining room, with three halls, two of which were large and one for those of the suites - smaller.
The middle hall is connected to the kitchen, which emits absolutely all the smells, and at the same time (frying, cooking, carcass).
We came in the middle of lunch, we were seated at the next table, fed what was and gave the number of the future table where we will eat constantly, but only from tomorrow, when the elderly couple will leave. Seated compactly and compacted, probably so as not to clean more tables. The food is not remarkable. Chicken, cutlets, fish (hake), puree, porridge, borsch, soup, casserole (very rare), pasta, etc. In the small suite there was the same menu, plus extra salads and EVERYTHING!

They always came to the dining room on time, but the waitresses did not have time to put everything in time, so they laid out the food on the tables in advance. But then we got used to it and happened 10 minutes earlier, the rest ate cold cutlets: )

The menu is ordered 2 days in advance, Saturday-Sunday without order, which will bring food. The first two days they ate what they would give, then they ordered.
Procedures.

In the afternoon we were introduced to the doctor. Interesting uncle.
The man immediately began to call for a prostate massage, for extra. payment. I hope all is well with his orientation. The man then avoided him : ) They took massages, physical therapy, ozokerite and various electrotherapy.


There were ALWAYS queues for procedures and it doesn't matter if you arrive at your appointed time or later, you will NEVER arrive at your appointed time. Therefore, everything turned into some inconvenience, because after the procedures I wanted to travel around the city and the central park. But, unfortunately ...all these procedures took a lot of time and nerves. Ozokerite (warmed legs) to be far away, you need to go outside and run a hundred meters in the cold. Well, at least there was a heater in the hallway. But it was uncomfortable after the procedures, with warm feet I had to go back across the street.
Probably, the effect of such a move nullified all its benefits.
Electrical procedures soon had to be abandoned, as it turned into a "queue at the city clinic" with household stories, gossip and scandals between visitors. The girl who serviced electrical procedures ALWAYS did not have time and could not cope, ran from bed to bed, so time was constantly shifting.

And besides, the time allotted for the procedure sometimes increased and I even burned the skin on my back with two electrodes. You can still write a lot, because emotions are overflowing. But I do not want to slip into criticism and write a bad review. Although, sometimes straight hands itch, post everything online and complain.

Verdict.

Despite the efforts of the administration to repair something, to somehow refresh the entire housing stock, the sanatorium comes from the USSR.
My mother, on arrival looking at the photo (and she was not in the sanatorium for more than 20 years) noticed that almost nothing has changed.
People tried to be sensitive, they tried, but you can't jump above your head, unfortunately ...

I don't know if we will come again, probably not. At least, walking around, we discovered some beautiful resorts, which on arrival will provide information and you can go next year.

So I advise everyone never to lose optimism and treat everything philosophically, even if after arrival you did not get what you expected : )

For those who value time and money, do not want to step on our rake and enjoy the experience of rest, I wrote this long review.
