We rested from 01/18/11 to 01/25/11, we were 8 people. Building No. 8, rooms 2819.2802, 2811.2827.
in the rooms: new plumbing, no rust, rats, mosquitoes. Shampoos, geldushi, nail files, hats, needles, shoe brushes, etc. were constantly present, changed daily, as well as towels. The bed is fresh and no stains. Swans and rose petals also daily. Tipping left at $1
in the restaurant: the choice of food is wonderful, they got used to alcohol the next day. We also had excellent meals at the beach bar and water park. During the rest recovered by 4 kg
Bar at the reception open 24/7
There is no free internet at the reception (as promised).
Territory: under renovation
Market on the territory: prices are much cheaper than in the Hurghada market, it’s nice to bargain - they are inferior (example: papyrus 2m by 1m with a phosphoric glow from $ 180 was traded for $ 50), this also applies to the market outside the hotel
Now I'll be brief:

- hotel guide from the "annex tour" Ibrahim - K...... (excursions are expensive, no responsibility), excursions on the beach are cheaper and the attitude is better
- In no case do not go to El Gouna on an excursion, they promise 2 hours of fishing - not true, 10 minutes. And the city itself is just not impressive. Only a day wasted, tired and half-starved
- we rented a boat for a day for $ 400 with diving (we took it on the beach near Khasim), it was unforgettable, they blew dust off us all day, and the diving instructors Irina and Islam are wonderful.

Taxi: a different story. from the hotel he is taking to the market to the "RAMSES" store, the owner of the store promises that he will call the taxi driver when we get back - LIE! (note: the taxi driver immediately takes money for the return route, otherwise it's not lucky). The taxi driver leaves, the owner of the store drags him to him and promises to sell cheaply - AGAIN LIE! When you walk around the market and return to it, everything will be three times more expensive and the sellers will change and will freeze. A taxi was called back with a scandal, they waited for an hour and a half, and then they started yelling at the store to everyone who wanted to go there that this is the worst store in the market. After that, our taxi driver was found in four minutes.
-fountain show - cool!
-massage (massage salon on the territory of the hotel) - fabulous!
- disco - sucks!! ! (there are swindlers there, they look quite decent, they try to persuade them to go to a disco in the city, such as to pay cheaper for a taxi, they say that "they just arrived today")
- animation on the beach and by the pool - super!!!
- swimming pool in the water park with heating
The overall impression of the rest is good, I will not refuse to go to this hotel again. If someone wants to write that I have nothing to compare with - no need, I have something to compare with. Just this hotel is quite consistent with the money that I paid for it.
