We rested in this, so to speak, hotel for 2 weeks. We didn’t expect to spend a lot on vacation, so the tour operator picked up several options for budget holidays in the Crimea and Turkey. It’s worth saying right away that a vacation in Turkey in a 4-star hotel would have come out to us at least tens of thousands cheaper, but since at that time in Turkey Russian tourists were sitting at the airport for days waiting for departure, we abandoned such a cloudless idea and decided to see what is it now, OUR CRIMEA. Of all the resort places, we chose Yalta, and tour agents chose the most budget options. Oddly enough, when I went to the ripario website, I saw a bunch of bright and colorful photos, deciding that the hotel is very good and left my choice on it. Reviews (which is not surprising), on the site were just sparkling positive. We live in Siberia and traveled more than 12 hours. You can imagine how tired we were when we finally got to the ill-fated hotel.
By the way, we were picked up from the airport by a transfer from BiblioGlobus with a very pleasant guide and driver, which was very nice. So we have been registered in the Ripario Modern building. This is the newest building and everything in it is beautiful and irresistible, as it should be, this gave us hope. To!! ! forever!! ! To prove our belonging to the ripario, we were given guest cards, paper ones, to which we immediately realized that we were suffering with this trifle, a bracelet would be much more convenient. They also offered us the same card to pay, we littered the money and did not take it. Finally, an electric car, by the way, the only sign of a technical revolution in this hotel, brought us to our building. In appearance, this building looked like an old panel house, the path and benches near it were killed, because they were made under Stalin.
In the main hall of the building, there was a huge wooden pano on the entire wall, an old goyaz carpet lay on the floor and there was shovels furniture, we were already horrified, but from fatigue we spat, took the key and went to our room. The room was an economy twin, no air conditioning, and generally terrible. There were no other options, as the hotel was packed to capacity, as we were told. There were two old uncomfortable beds in the room, one bedside table for two with a broken drawer, a small refrigerator and a 20-year-old TV. Oh, and a closet without one door and for some reason two chairs. We were horrified, there was a mountain of dust on all surfaces, the curtains were the color of clouds, although in life they seem to be white, the view from the window onto a concrete wall, the windows are old shabby wooden frames, and behind them the poor fellow is a rope for drying clothes, which reminded me childhood in the nineties. With a psycho, I pulled the drawer of the bedside table, and inside lay SOMEONE'S SILVER CHAIN ​ ​ WITH A WEAR ICON.

there was no longer any limit to endure and we went to complain at the reception, where they told us "yes, you chtooooo, this is our best maid, how can it be. " We were terribly outraged that after the departure of the previous tenants, they did not even look into this box of contention. That same ill-fated maid was immediately in our room, and when my mother began to explain that this was not the norm, especially for such money (about 4000 per day), that she was allergic to dust, about this poor chain, she answered her "well, I she cleaned up, in the morning she wiped the dust, but the chain is not yours? "In the end, she left the rag so that we ourselves would wipe the dust, as we should, and she stupidly vacuumed the carpet for two weeks and was pleased with herself. In general, the service is 0. Of course, we understand that this is not sugar work, but should we care that you are not paid extra? In general, I can’t say thank you to the staff members of our corps, it’s just disgusting.
From food we included breakfast and dinner, this was done deliberately, but at the reception we were immediately informed that lunch, if we wanted, would cost 650 rubles, we were crazy about the prices and never dined there. There was a shop on the territory of the hotel, but there was nothing sensible in it, except for bread, basically all sorts of nasty things for children, ice cream and water at 100 rubles per 2 liters, and this is just pure water. There is no fruit tent on the territory, but you want them at the resort, and you had to pay 250 rubles one way for a taxi, since the bus ran according to an unknown schedule and the stop is far away. Swimming to get to Yalta is much faster and cheaper, but apparently only vacationers think of this, since the leadership will never seem to do this. Kamenka beach, no one takes care of it. Animators work through the stump deck, like the entire staff in principle. Living there is very expensive, the prices bite.
In Siberia, we don’t even have such prices, although we live in the north. There are no claims only to nutrition, although the menu has always been meager. In general, with great regret and an empty wallet, we returned home. And we wish the management to stop sucking money out of people, and at least do something for them. Otherwise, even fewer people will come to the institute next year than this year. I wish the employees to be more attentive, and not to be stupid to the management, because they could row the money with a shovel if they moved at least a little.
