Let's start with the positives! Very beautiful and large area. There are many pools, there are cozy places where there are not many people. There are several restaurants where you can have breakfast, lunch and dinner. There are also enough bars, beer is good, bottled on the beach. For beer lovers, I recommend bringing a beer glass with you. there pour a maximum of 125 ml in a glass. But if you are not one of the timid, and still at the sidelong glances of the bar staff, then you can often go for 125 ml of beer (((. Not all employees have a judgmental look, but on the beach for sure. Sometimes it was a shame for our tourists, now it is clear where these views come from.
About food. Variety, but not enough spices, absolutely bland. Especially the fish! Mussels, shrimp were not given. Vegetables in Egypt are a different story, absolutely tasteless. You won't be left hungry. Lots of sweets. When the Germans rest, the level of nutrition is different, higher. The sea is good, there is also a depth for those who need it and shallower.
Minus - we arrived at 6 am, settled at 12.00, and then after our trips to the reception. It's a shame, because we also paid for the tests ourselves. Could have settled faster because of respect for extra. embarrassment from tourists. It was a pity for the people who came with children and waited so many hours for check-in. I will say right away that the service staff is proud, you only need to treat them with a smile or as a human being. Otherwise, they will put spokes in the wheels! Keep a good eye on the cards for entering the room and for getting towels. $10 fine. Take our chocolate with you, the Egyptians love it and will be grateful if you treat it.

They settled us in the building where the renovation was going on (. We didn’t sleep the first night, as a result, at 5 in the morning I was at the reception. Without a scandal, I put pressure on pity. We were moved to another building, where the level of repair is much higher and the room itself is larger. Satisfied with the rest despite these nuances. Guides are of little use. Only they offer excursions, but you don’t always get what they promise. If you come to take a break from the big city, do not agree to a free trip to Hurghada. You will be taken until you lose your pulse shopping (oils, skin), etc. in the hope that you will spend as much money as possible. At dinners, breakfasts, the distance is not kept!!! There is a pharmacy on the territory of the hotel where you can bargain.
Have a good rest everyone. If there are problems in the room (torn blanket, hair dryer not working), tell the guide right away! So that you don't get fined.
