Chalet "Upper Bor" (Samara): reviews
Vacationers call the base “magnificent,” the houses “chic,” and the nature “fabulous.” The pine forest around the camp site provides excellent air quality: you breathe it - do not breathe, guests share.
But communication with staff was problematic for many. Tourists consider some of its representatives insufficiently communicative and not oriented towards the convenience of customers. This is reflected in the fact that vacationers share that potential guests may not be provided with all the necessary information about the conditions of accommodation and the provision of services at the camp site, which creates certain difficulties for them when checking in. Rates are considered by many vacationers to be somewhat overpriced.
Some consider the location of the camp site uncomfortable: on the slope leading to Mastryukovsky Lakes, there is a significant difference between the upper and lower points - about 15 m. You need to go down to the lakes along a long staircase on the slope. For some, this represents a significant physical load, especially since then you will have to climb the same ladder. The complexity of the relief is especially felt by those who came to rest with their children: it is inconvenient to move from a mountain uphill with a stroller. At the camp site, as guests noted, a lot of wasps.
On the territory of the base, according to many vacationers, there is nothing interesting. Since the base is located on a slope, there can be no talk of any tennis or volleyball courts. There is an assembly hall in which tennis tables are folded, but vacationers are not allowed in there. Near the hall there is a modest playground. In the evening, cartoons are shown at the local cinema, then you can watch a movie. On weekends, discos are organized. But in general, an active holiday on the basis of many disappointed.
The beach here is small, belongs to the local summer cottage. The beach is sandy, located between the parking lots of boats. The water here, according to reviews, is much warmer than in the Volga. It is necessary to go down the stairs to it, which is very problematic with a small child.
Service, according to reviews, so-so, the administration is not particularly interested in ensuring a good rest for customers. The reason for this is that the camp site does not belong to private ownership, but belongs to the bearing plant.
Food at the camp site as a whole, guests are satisfied. For breakfast, cheese, sausage, a little butter, sausage or sausage, cereals, cocoa, yogurt; for lunch: soups, mashed potatoes with cutlet, salads, compote or jelly); for dinner: salads, pilaf, bun, tea. Some guests complain about the provided 3 meals a day and service in the dining room. Many people think that employees are very slowly setting the table, so it’s better to arrive later than the appointed hour. In the dining room there are many inconveniences for those who come with children: you can not be there with strollers, although the place for this, according to vacationers, is quite enough. Parents with children have to take meals in turn. According to the norm, the guests of the camp site are surprised, everyone is supposed to have 1 piece of bread. This is not enough for many, vacationers share, in addition, the bread can be served in the windward way. Food in general, vacationers call acceptable, with the exception of drinking. Tea, cocoa and jelly, according to many, are served here of poor quality.
"Verkhny Bor" (camp site, Samara) causes positive feedback from those who came to breathe fresh air, relax after hard work and for this is ready to turn a blind eye to some shortcomings of the service.
