We had a rest with my husband on September 24-27 after an excursion program in Baku. It takes 40 minutes to drive from Baku to the hotel, the hotel is located in the village of Jorat, a 10-minute drive from Sumgait. The hotel is located along a fairly busy highway on the first line, the rooms are large with high ceilings and full-length paned windows 4m wide and 3m high, but the rooms where the windows overlook the highway are matte, not transparent, and the rooms with sea views just have a gorgeous view, we paid 40 manats to us they moved with a view of the sea and did not regret it, although the gorgeous view was accompanied by nightly local music from 18 to 23h and even closed windows did not help, but we go to bed late and it was tolerable for us. The beach was dirty, covered in cigarette butts and other debris, there were stationary umbrellas, but there were no sun beds, because it was no longer the bathing season, but we were the only ones swimming, although the water was cool and the waves were due to the wind, which, as the locals said, blows here all year round. There is nowhere to dry swimsuits, towels and damp clothes, if you rest for 7 days or more during the bathing season, then this is a problem. There is also nowhere to wash our feet from the sand after the beach, in order not to carry sand to the room, we washed our feet at the watering pipe. Breakfasts are meager and monotonous-ready-made omelets, fried eggs, boiled eggs, cucumbers, tomatoes, cheese, sausage. There were few people, so there was enough for everyone. There is a kettle and tea accessories in the room, a TV (there are no Russian programs), a refrigerator, a hairdryer, air conditioning, almost all sockets do not work, no one has cleaned for three days. In the bathroom, the shower separates a small glass from the toilet and splashes everything. There is a minibus stop to Sumgait nearby, we went 1 time, 50 local kopecks a ticket, there is not much to see, we took a photo of a pigeon (the symbol of Sumgait), walked along the embankment, 50 meters to the sea from the edge of the embankment, you can not swim in Sumgait itself, changed money, bought fruits at the market. In the center of the village of Jorat (a 7-minute walk from the hotel), you can also buy fruits in a shop, but there is less choice. The building has an ancient bathhouse of the 17th century and an ancient mosque, but the mosque is fenced with a new solid fence and the service takes place outside, because the mosque has not been restored. In general, you can live for 3 days.
We stayed at the hotel from May 4th to May 12th, 2024. Nice hotel. Attentive staff. Many people speak Russian. There were no problems with understanding. Samira, Farida, Anar, choh sahol. They are very attentive and friendly. We had a room with a sea view. The room has a safe, kettle, tea set, hairdryer, bathrobes, slippers, bathroom accessories, towels are provided on the beach. There is no cleaning every day, ask the maids, they will do everything. We asked, the girls are very attentive and pleasant. Bottled water is also given.
And the biggest advantage of this hotel is its proximity to the sea. He left the room and dived into the Caspian Sea. The beach is wide, the entry into the sea is gradual.
In general, we highly recommend this hotel.
Hello everyone
We stayed at this hotel in August.
I write everything as it is.
Cons:
The rooms are very dirty. The floors are not washed. There is a lot of dust behind the sofas and on the bindings of the windows.
The windows are dirty. Stained with hands.
The mirrored wall is dirty. The bedside lamps are full of dust.
There is a strong smell of sewage in the bathroom from time to time. The plumbing is worn out.
All the towels are old and torn.
The refrigerator in the room is old and dirty.
There are few hangers in the closet. Only four.
There are no tumble dryers in the rooms. People come to bathe and do their laundry every day. How do they get out of it?
There is no drinking water in the room. You can buy two bottles of the cheapest water and put it on every day. It's not expensive. Really?
The hotel has a restaurant, but there is no menu in the rooms. Put a menu with a phone number in each room and there will be a full-fledged room service.
The locks on the doors are old and loose.
The area around the hotel is dirty, especially the beach. Empty bottles, cigarette butts, and glass fragments are lying right on the stairs. Clean up the surrounding area. It's free!
And most importantly…
Right under the windows, in the evening, the music program began until eleven in the evening…
No comments.
There are only two advantages.
1. View of the Caspian Sea from the window.
2. Helpful staff at breakfast.
Until all the shortcomings are eliminated, I do not recommend it!
