Отдых в Балгатуре Rest in Balgatur

The rooms are exactly like in the photos. Good, expensive furniture, plumbing. There was just no TV in the toilet! ))) A kitchen equipped with dishes. Large guarded garage (went by car). Our room did have a great view of Bear Mountain. In general, everything is ok with the rooms! And even super!
To begin with, we barely found this villa, although the car had a navigator and the map in it was very detailed. When settling in, we were told in an indisputable tone that they (that is, Balgatur) provide us with housing for rent. Only. There will be no hotel service familiar to vacationers! How! Although for a fee, we can use the services of a laundry, a cook, etc. THOSE. everything except living for money.
Moreover, when choosing where to go, they read on their website that all rooms have free Internet access. We brought a laptop with us. When I went to the administrator for the promised free cable, it turned out that it was not free at all, but costs 20 hryvnias, which they will add to the cost of the room! My husband and I decided not to be stingy - for nothing chtol machine hellish pearls in such a distance?

The bribe-takers did not stop at this - they began to demand from us some more incomprehensible either a resort or a tourist fee (I don’t remember exactly) in the amount of 20 hryvnias from the nose !!!! ! What? ! When we quite resolutely sent them, saying that we would not pay any fees, they languidly tried to convince us that they would be in trouble. To this, my husband and his friend even more strongly recommended that we pay a fee from the money we paid for the room. After that, the attempt to divorce suckers ended.
By the way, in order to get to the declared playground, you have to go through the broken rubble through the construction site. Which, by the way, offers a lovely view from half of the rooms.
More about the number. All its advantages I have described above.
Cleaning. During the week we stayed there, the room was never cleaned. But in the toilet on the 1st floor (we had room 3/4), a bucket with a mop stood unobtrusively behind the door. Type-use, dear gentlemen, as needed. On the very first day, a healthy plastic tank with a lid was placed outside the front door. Garbage. We threw all the rubbish from the house there. Ashtrays from the balconies we also took out and washed ourselves. Well, of course they didn't break. We are boyars, hard-working people! ))
Linen and towels were changed every 3 days as promised. Here toilet paper was replenished in a timely manner, which is very important, isn't it? )) For which we bow to them.
A separate issue is the location of the villa and the road from it to the sea.

The villa is located near the highway, i. e. much higher than sea level. The 10-15 minute walk that they say on their website is just down an almost sheer mountain! ! And climbing up is almost impossible! The first time we literally crawled on all fours! ! Then they found a workaround. But it was much longer than 10-15, and what can I say, more than half an hour uphill, in some places, too, almost on all fours, in some places up the stairs in the mountain. The torment began from the Gurzuf embankment. There were also taxi drivers who fought to Balgatura for 150 hryvnias! And it's less than 5 minutes by car! (they spotted it when one day, having despaired of climbing after a hearty dinner, they took taxis for all). Taxi drivers say in the eye, you live in such mansions, so there are grandmothers. Here you pay. THOSE. if you decide to have a wonderful evening on the embankment, for example, in Syty Pan, do not be afraid to get better - you will certainly lose all the calories crawling home!
And last but not least, THE BEACH.
There is nothing to do on the Gurzuf embankment - there is nowhere for an apple to fall, and I have already mentioned the way back. Don’t even poke your nose at the beach near Artek - you will lie in a pile of garbage.
Therefore, the valiant villa Balgatur organized a transfer to the beach of the Ai-Danil sanatorium. The beach is gorgeous. Jokes aside. Clean, the sea too. There are changing cabins, toilets, even a bite to eat. Well, buy a cold beer. And there is entertainment for children. True, a visit is worth 20 hryvnia. And take a bed too. In general, the beach is good! Before him from Balgatura carries a minibus by the hour. And back too.
BUT!! ! You must first ride in a minibus to the highway, and then also along it, your dear one, for at least 15 minutes, after which you also go through the territory of the sanatorium. Yes, and this is not the most important thing. The most incredible thing is that this transfer is paid! ! 7 hryvnia one way from the nose! ! Check out checkout. Carriers remember everyone or write down, I don’t know, but the amount called to us was accurate to the point of disgust! So calculate how much it will cost to visit the beach for 1 person along with travel. Not bad? ! Consider this amount in your trip budget when you are going to Balgatur!
I almost forgot - upon departure, the administration gave us a compliment from the hotel - a jar of walnut jam. I took it, of course! From greed, after all, she paid a lot for it! ))) Have a good rest in Balgatur!
