Written: 4 july 2012
Travel time: 1 — 7 june 2012
Quite a decent hotel. The staff is friendly, always smiling. True, none of the staff speaks Russian. Communication is practically very difficult - gestures, drawings on paper, etc. . Some understand English a little. The rooms are clean, beautiful, TV, refrigerator, mirrors, solid furniture. Television - about 40 channels in many languages ​ ​ except Russian. When you leave the room, the electricity is automatically turned off, including the refrigerator. You come, and in the refrigerator there is water, food is floating. Towels are changed daily, toothbrushes, shampoos, flip flops, clean and nice, and the flushing tank regularly birdies and is very loud, day and night. Soundproofing leaves much to be desired. On Saturday and Sunday, many Vietnamese families show up. Squeals, laughter, screams. Dealing with management is a problem. You have to wait for the guide, who comes once a day for one hour. The safe at the reception is free, it is a paper envelope, which is sealed with tape in front of you and placed on your shelf. The beach is not far, about 500 meters, but the road is EXTREME, two buses cannot pass across the bridge. Motobikes, scooters, bicycles, scooters, buses, cars, cycle rickshaws. Everyone rides, from 10 years old to old age, in three to five rows. There are no rules. Maybe there is, but no one follows them. Imagine a woman riding a motorcycle, and a wardrobe across the trunk, or a man carrying a five-meter pipe on his shoulder. Signals are allowed. The constant howl of klaxons. There are no road signs. Surprisingly, they saw an accident only once, everyone drives with respect for each other, if only we could. There are no roadsides, you can more or less walk on foot only during the “fiesta” hours, at the peak of the heat, when almost no one is working. But a special extreme after 19 hours (it's already dark there). All bikers buzz, blind, when they see foreigners, they shout “helo”. There are sidewalks on the streets, but they are crowded with "motorbikes", you have to walk along the street. The cuisine at the hotel is excellent, buffet, the widest assortment: exotic and ordinary fruits, vegetables, chickens, ducks, meat, rice, pasta, potatoes, steamed, fried, there is a cook right there and can, at your request, instantly bake pancakes, scrambled eggs, fried eggs and some other dishes that we are not familiar with. Everything is very delicious. But it's all breakfast. Lunch is usually on excursions. In the evening, the problem, the staff is very friendly, is usually alone. The menu is in Vietnamese and English, they ordered a salad (it is consonant with English). They brought a tall cone glass (0.2 l. ), at the bottom of which there are a few lettuce leaves, and four fried shrimps are fastened to the edges of the glass. Exotic. It is a problem to communicate with the waiters at the hotel in the evening. You poke your finger at the name of the dish, which looks like something familiar, in response: “fini”, which means no. You poke into the next - again “fini”, well then give what you have, they stand shrugging their shoulders, they say we don’t understand. You get up and go through the "extreme" to a cafe on the street. Everything is always there. Just go check if they brought it or something. But now they are starting to learn Russian and attract Russian tourists. The government has identified tourism as the main direction of the economy. There is extensive construction going on. In two restaurants we came across a menu in Russian, you laugh, but that's something. The positions of teachers of the Russian language are very prestigious. We were told: come back in two years, everything will be OKAY.
