Ivanovo Holidays from £517

It says all inclusive but don’t let it fool you. I knew that this place was joke when we arrived. It felt like none of the workers didn’t have slightest clue how to work in hotel. For example our passports were left unattended on counter while we took our stuff to the room. Room AC didn’t work. I also didn’t like our balcony was shared with other room. Drinks were the biggest joke. Soft drinks were completely passed, warm, disqusting. There were 3 taps of beer: one at pool bar, one at restaurant and one at sky bar. None of them had any beer during our stay. Only alcoholic drinks were random spirits mixed with the same bland warm soft drinks. I felt also that they don’t clean the glasses well. Twice the bartender just poured to dirty glass. Remarks about swimming pool: Filthy water, also dangerous for kids due to missing floor drain cover and some broken tiles. I enjoyed to swim however after hot day. The best part of the hotel is view from Sky bar. I wish though someone would have told the existence of it, we found it when it was already dark. One last thing: the drone photo shows mainly neighbour hotels premises. This got me fooled thinking that it would be bigger holiday complex.. Dinner was not horrible, about school lunch level though. Make sure to be in queue when food is served, it will run out eventually. Breakfast was very simple but passable. I’m glad our stay was just one night. I can’t believe seems like travel agencies are arranging package tours here..

The hotel is in a good condition, clean. Used towels are changed every day and the sheets every 4 days. Restaurant is clean and the personnel is very well trained. Good WiFi in our room. That's the good part. Now the bad part. -Over-crowded small parking, parked cars almost glued to each other at their directions. When you leave, although you ask them at the reception to make room for you, nothing happens. -Parking is after 12.00 at check-in and although there are free parking spaces, you are not allowed to park. This restriction is not mentioned either on the hotel site or on the booking sites. The attitude of security agents is arrogant. We were not even allowed to enter the hotel! - The bus to the beach does not have air conditioning although some races due to the bad program made are full. Passengers get to argue with each other. The first race to the beach is at 9.00, much too late and at lunch from the beach to the hotel there is a break between 11.40 and 13.10 even during the lunch table. Do managers want their guests to stop eating? Do they think they eat too much food? - Food and drinks are not at 4 * level. The coffee is instant, the drinks are fake, from the dispenser, the soups are tasteless, the cakes look good (some), but the taste is plastic. - The back lane with stairs leading to the resort is in very bad shape, dirty with unbearable odor at the end. - The adult entertainment quality was rather poor.

We had a wonderful break. We wanted somewhere quiet, clean and with good facilities and we weren’t disappointed. The breakfast buffet surprised us it was that good! The dinner buffet was good but I imagine if we had stayed for a longer duration it would have become repetitive. Staff were excellent. We liked that we were a little walk away from the main resort and the walk down following the stairs and paths was easy to follow.
