The first impression upon check-in was positive (there was an air conditioner, a TV, rugs on the floor), but then the following was discovered: the window is too high, like in a prison, you can’t see anything from it; a hanging type balcony, but since there was no heating in the room at all (the thermal regime of the air conditioner did not work, the batteries did not work), the balcony door was also sealed. Thus, the room was very cold, two woolen blankets did not warm. Wherever you had to go, there were a lot of difficult steps, that is, for the elderly, disabled or just people with problems in the joints, this place is absolutely not suitable ! ! The food in the dining room is very bad, poisoned twice and not only us.
Instead of a pharmacy, there is a pharmacy kiosk, in which there is nothing even for a cold or poisoning. There are no grocery stores at all, if you want to eat something not from the dining room, you have to take a minibus to Foros.
Communication with any other city is extremely difficult, since this sanatorium stands alone, 12 km from Simeiz.
Instead of improving our health, we severely undermined it there. It's been almost a month, and we are all overjoyed that we left there.
The better to relax like this, sit at home, you will be more whole.
Let's look at the description of the resort:
". . . is one of the best sanatoriums in Crimea. . . "?? ? What is this, some kind of joke?
The rooms are indescribable horror, the most appropriate comparison is a student hostel: with broken furniture, non-closing doors. Bathroom: Instead of a shower cabin - a shabby bathtub with a curtain of not the first freshness, a complete lack of shelves, there is not even a hook for the sprayer. So wash yourself: one hand is busy showering, the other is washing, the third is holding on so as not to kill yourself, and the fourth is looking for detergents that are due to the lack of shelves on the washbasin. Hot water - according to the schedule!! ! In the canteen, the service is disgusting, according to the principle "Eyes would not look. "
The pool is not working, the sports fields are wastelands next to a smelly trash can. Beaches - only two, extreme, and then one for children. And this is with a beach area of .500m. All the beaches between the two above are in terrible desolation, packed to capacity with large stones. It looks like they were brought here on purpose.
I recommend this "best sanatorium of the Crimea" only to thrill-seekers.
The rooms are disgusting - the food is not very tasty (the worst food in my life was only in the army) - the absolute lack of infrastructure - the USSR is everywhere, etc. etc.
But it also has its advantages, of course it is the beach and the sea. On the beach you will lie down freely (and not sit down as in Yalta), on the beach you will not find a single cigarette butt or piece of paper. Also in the sea. Very clean, but there are places where it is dirty. To pay or not to pay that kind of money for a ticket is up to everyone at home with their families. It's quiet there. The air is magnificent, all the bars are turned off at 23-00 and everyone sleeps)))
Of course, we traveled on a social insurance package and paid only 30%... For the full price, this is about 10.000 UAH for me and for the child for 21 days, I would not go...
The building itself was built quite thoughtfully, albeit 30 years ago, but everything in it needs repair, see the photo of the standard room in which I was. Hot water according to the schedule from 7 to 9 in the morning and in the evening, while for another 20 minutes you need to bleed air from the pipe and cold water. Food in the dining room is a rare muck, the staff probably steals 70% of the food they are given out. The rooms are rare, but there are our smaller mustachioed friends. The beach is two-level - there are wooden sun loungers on the top, small pebbles below, while it was not possible to beg for a chair or an umbrella even for money from the beach workers - there was nothing, they were pleased with pasties with onions and the smell of minced meat in the "Glass" stall on the shore. The general conclusion is that if you are not a spoiled tourist, you only need the beach and the sea and air, you like to fall asleep at 21.00, because there is nothing special to tell on a vast territory in the dark - you are here.
