No. They do not go through bags, but personally, I would not try. If they do happen to catch you, they will report it to the government and it could impact all the work you did to get here. I like to have a drink too, but considered it a detox time.

Could you access the balcony from the date of arrival or did you have to wait?
@TheCuriousFarang3 жыл бұрын
You have unlimited access to the balcony from day one. After the first covid test, you have 1.5 hours of time near the pool area on the river. After the first test, they also serve the food on real plates and silverware instead of plastic containers. I did not think this was a big deal but believe me, it makes you feel more human. After the second covid test, you can eat lunch and dinner at the riverside restaurant. This was the best part of the stay. The food and presentations were amazing, and it was easy to strike up conversations with other guests. Make sure you ask for a room with a garden view. The one side of the hotel faces a construction zone. I was in one of these rooms for the first day, and I asked if I could change. The room was nice, but it was not as pleasant to sit outside. The garden view in the video was peaceful and beautiful. I highly recommend it.
