Новый год большой компанией New Year with a big company

It took a long time to choose where we, a company of 17 people, should go to the Carpathians for the celebration of the New Year 2013, so that we could go skiing, i. e. Bukovel and Dragobrat are not far away, and so, enjoy the "landscapes". After many weeks of calling ads and advertisements, we stopped at the estate "Karpaty" in the village of Yablunytsya. To be honest, for this period, the cost of renting the estate per day (3600 UAH) was the most optimal.
From the pros:
- the absence of owners in our 3-storey house: they live in another house, do not climb to us, do not drop in, do not count spoons and forks;
- a nice dining room, where we all sat down perfectly together;
- very good-natured and unobtrusive hosts: if you want, order food from them, if you want - no, you are still welcome. In the event of the slightest problem (lack of spoons : )), everything was provided to us within a couple of minutes. Well done!!!

- lack of roadside turmoil, neighbors. fences and civilization in general. Beauty, only mountains from the threshold!!!
- we arrived 8 hours earlier before check-in and left 8 hours later than the agreed check-out - we were not kicked out and did not take a penny extra.
Of the minuses:
- the biggest minus is the acoustics: from the first floor to the third you can hear what everyone is doing in their room, just F. . . A!!! ! Even when you squeeze out the paste from the tube, tear off the paper, snort or even just sniff, not to mention everything else, the nearest neighbors hear everything! "Apchi", from different rooms of the house: "Be healthy. "
- in the dining room, where we spent most of the time, the door did not close and it was quite cold, despite the constant internal "heating".
- the road from the highway to the house: not only do you need to move 500 meters up and down a rather steep slope, but in the middle of the way there is a small stream that the generous locals have fenced off with 500x500mm boards; in general, in the morning, in the afternoon, water spills over the ice there, and in the evening it freezes with a new layer - it’s simply impossible to go !! ! Everyone fell there! As soon as they didn't break anything!! ! So is it really so difficult for local residents to make a small groove across the slope to drain water? ! So that vacationers do not get killed there and do not crawl under the tree on all fours. Who needs it?
In general: not bad, it will pull with beer : ), but if everyone in the house is their own.
