20 years ago, such a boarding house was a dream of a vacation for ordinary Soviet engineers. The bosses went to the Crimea, and the elite went to the South Coast and the Caucasus. Oddly enough, a lot of time has passed, there are no more Soviet engineers, and it’s not at all the elite that travels abroad, dachas and houses have been set up on the South Coast and there is no need to pay fabulous money for such a vacation. Zatoka as a resort - from departmental recreation centers has moved into the category of private buildings. And it was necessary to manage on such a profitable coast to breed such redneck living conditions? Probably until then, the "Soviet" generation will not leave on its own biological course... nothing will change. These terrible quilted beds, bedspreads, curtains and armored beds along the walls, refrigerators at the head and toilets (slops) on the street, aunts with hair in chintz dressing gowns, contemptuously looking into the plates, the ubiquitous caretaker supervisors are the inalienable ghosts of the USSR. Who wants such an exotic - visit Ruta... get ready to pay world prices!
