Founded in 1937, this well located but architecturally drab spa-centre has been somewhat spruced up but retains a distinctly Soviet atmosphere. Although rooms are occasionally offered to passing visitors, most are rented out to those on full-programme cure packages. All rates are full-board, and include some treatments and access to all the facilities of the resort.
