The price / quality ratio suited me, so I opted for this hotel. As for nutrition, in the first 5 days you feel the variety, the abundance of food, the abundance of biscuits, but from the 6th day you understand that the food is monotonous, while the quality of the products from which they cook leaves much to be desired. Of course, I could be wrong, but in my opinion, the dishes were washed poorly, this smell cannot be confused with anything, the smell from the dishes was as if they had been washed badly, then if you take some other dishes, it’s normal, there is no smell . There are no real scammers at the reception, I booked a room at the Aladdin Hotel, and when they started to draw up the documents, they wanted to settle us, practically in the closed Jasmine Hotel, that is, they gave us the keys, we go and go, we are moving further and further away from reception, Since we arrived late, at first I did not figure out where we were going, I saw that there was already no lighting there, we approached some one-story houses, I asked: "what is this? " , to which they answer that they do not know anything and are not in the know. . . We return to the reception, and the employee shows with all his appearance that he needs to gild the pen, and then, when we were tired from the road, we gave him these unfortunate 20 dollars, only then he settled us in the hotel for which we paid money. The hotel has a very intrusive service, when checking in, a person came who is not a porter, not a service staff who cleans, a person brought some rules, a daily routine, stood and tuned us the channels on the TV, which I did not ask him to, and expected money ; I practically pushed him out of the room already, saying that go, I want to sleep, he stood and waited for money. The staff, like gypsies, who walk around and ask to gild the pen, all this, of course, spoiled the impression very much. The room itself was normal, the view was normal, the cleaning, the quality of the furniture and bed linen corresponded to the four of this hotel. The beach, in principle, is also normal for this area, however, there are a lot of stones, you can’t walk there without shoes. The hotel is located relatively well, 10 minutes walk to the shopping center, not far from the airport. There was a hotel across the road, they sold clothes, shoes, there were good prices for leather goods: bags, wallets, etc. I also want to say a few words about the guide, his name is Mahmoud. He offered various excursions, one of them was a tour of Hurghada, which we also took. An adult ticket cost $10 per person, a child ticket was $5. We also ordered more expensive tours from him. Tellingly, he gave us fiscal checks for all these tours, but he did not give checks for children (a tour of Hurghada). The guide began to make excuses and told that checks were not given for children so that we would not worry, he said that he would take us to the best store if we needed leather. The leather store is all good, but why didn’t you give checks for paying for excursions for children? It was not very pleasant, he acted like a petty swindler who earned these 5 or 10 dollars from us. . The reception staff also left not a pleasant impression, the administrator, as they say "in the cold", he sees that we are with the children, and he is standing, talking to his colleague about something in Arabic, smiling, i. e. absolute zero, no worries , nothing.
