My husband and I were at the Eiffel Hotel from 12 to 26 October. We arrived at 4 pm Egyptian time and really wanted to swim, but we could not do this due to the long check-in, we only took a room from the 4th time, the first three were terrible, then the toilet did not work, then there was no shower, then there was no refrigerator . The TV did not work in the latter, but we put up with that. In general, we took a room on the 3rd floor with a sea view. They even offered money at the reception, but they did not take it. No one speaks Russian in this hotel, except for the bartender and the cook, which is especially annoying at the reception. Chef Hamud is good-natured, but he didn’t like the bartender - he set up a pigsty near the bar, he never has clean glasses, he barely walks when you ask, he doesn’t bring drinks to the dining room, it’s faster to come up and take it yourself. Of the drinks there were only cola and fanta and diluted yupi, there was often no even water. True, for the first 3 days there were juices from packages and water was given to the room, so we were chic, and then tourists from Russia came in large numbers and apparently the administration decided to save money and immediately juices and water disappeared until the end of our stay. We had all inclusive, but we had to buy water and juice in the store, because we can’t stand these yupis. As for food: breakfast: rice porridge, scrambled eggs, cheese like Hochland and tea, coffee. At lunch they brought the same thing on a plate, you can’t choose. And dinner is normal: buffet, 2 types of meat, for example. chicken and meat or fish, vegetables and garnish. From the eggplants on the right, it’s better not to take anything if you don’t want to spend the whole day on the toilet. Especially jams and salads. In general, in this hotel it is better to take half board and dine in cafes in the city, they are full and cheap, and you can buy drinks. Take your glasses with you. The beach is very close, not bad, the water is clean, the entrance is in slippers, otherwise you will cut your legs, everything on the beach is paid, and the fat-faced security guard at the entrance checks if you have your own water and food, but you can bring it in if you hide it at the bottom of the bag. The elevator is prehistoric, you need to open the door yourself, sometimes it jams and no one speaks in life, except for the bartender and the cook, this is especially annoying at the reception.

The elevator is prehistoric, you need to open the door yourself, sometimes it jams and doesn’t work in life, you don’t wait for water in the room in the morning, sometimes it’s not there, the air conditioner works like a beast, but it’s good, because it drowns out the howl of the mosque and the noise of the disco from the sea . The safe at the reception is paid, but they do not steal. They cleaned every 3 days, they gave paper and soap, they didn’t change towels and linen, they give towels on the beach, but sometimes we took our own, because at home the floor rags are newer and cleaner. We saw a person who spent a month in a hotel, so she walked with a wet disheveled head and laughed hysterically all the time. In general, if you go to this hotel, then at a super cheap price and not to sit in it, but to go on excursions, and not pay attention to all the shortcomings. I talked to people from other dvushki, food is even worse there and the beach is far away. So for a thousand dollars for two for two weeks, this is quite a normal vacation, we went on excursions every other day. Cloudless rest for all!
