this year (end of July - beginning of August) we were in Alushta, in the Professor's Corner, in the boarding house "Dubna".
There are no complaints about the boarding house beach - clean, with sun loungers, with awnings, the bottom is good. 5 hryvnia per day - rental of a plastic sunbed or umbrella.
Food is average. There is no custom menu, as it is written on the sites. Waiters in the dining room often have to wait 10 minutes until they take out the dishes, although they do a good job. A couple of times came across an unwashed plate and spoon. There seemed to be two cooks. One cooked well, very mediocre, the other - more varied and tasty. In the sanatorium "Gurzufsky" last year the feeding was much better, although here, too, they gave a little red caviar, with an egg.
Territory boarding house - well-groomed, flower beds, coniferous plants. There are benches, children's and sports grounds. Cinema room above the dining room. Excursions are organized.

Hot water - according to the schedule, and not as it is again painted on the sites that promised around the clock. The elevator in the high-rise building does not work from 15.00 to 17.00 (quiet hour). You are welcome on foot to the 8th floor. From the beach, climb 50 meters to the building, to the dining room even higher. While you rise, your eyes often pop out of their sockets. Luggage storage works only on weekdays and then at certain times.
The rooms are slightly smaller than in the "Gurzufsky", the furniture is also smaller. If you live in a high-rise building, where the rooms are with all amenities, then the windows face either towards Alushta, overlooking the sea, or towards the mountains and the nearby boarding house "More". From the side of the mountains - the constant buzz of the industrial ventilation of the dining room "Sea". My wife was hysterical when we heard it again after 2 years away from the area. We asked for a room on the other side, since it was empty. In the afternoon and in the morning - fine, the sun goes down - not hot, beautiful view. In a room on the other side, the sun would warm all day.
At night, from 21 o'clock, there comes a disco nightmare. All the cafes and discos along the coast try to outshout each other with the singing of their singers, idiotic karaoke and thumping speakers. And so hours until 3-4 nights... The disco, located 300 meters from the building - around the fountain, not far from the final stop of the minibus going to Simferopol, stood out in particular. The bang of this disco-cafe with powerful professional speakers for scoring large spaces carried, probably, a great distance. At least we could hear everything in our room. My wife had to get "ear plugs" in one of the pharmacies, and even close the door to the loggia. So their times-so! Goats!
After all, people come to take a break from the noise and din of cities, annoying neighbors behind the wall. And here on you - they fall into even more difficult conditions. I think that God forbid 5% of vacationers go to these discos at night. The remaining 95% are forced to endure all this noise and din. Can't Alushta city hall say its weighty NO to noise after 11 p. m. ? Let them be quiet afterwards. In the neighborhood of this boorish-impudent discotheque there is a rather cool hotel "Morskoy" - is it really that booze and music do not interfere with any of their guests?

In general, 2 years ago it was much quieter there. This infernal institution did not exist. We will never go there again. We will look for quieter and more peaceful places. In "Dubna" I recommend to rest only for absolutely calm people with a healthy psyche and not very picky.
