First time in Egypt

Written: 20 february 2010
Travel time: 7 — 17 february 2010
It was the first time in Egypt, the Albatros Jungle Aqua Park 4 * hotel: ! We flew through Tez Tour, to be honest, having read bad reviews about the tour operator, it was scary; (but as it turned out, it was completely in vain. At the airport, we were met by a representative of the tour operator, with the questionnaires already filled out by him, after we bought a visa for $ 15 and immediately passed control. When leaving the airport, no one snatched out the suitcases, the Egyptians stood aside and unobtrusively offered their services. We arrived at the hotel first, upon check-in at the reception they asked for $ 20 for a "very" good room. The rooms are the same everywhere, the only difference is in which exactly the location and what floor your room is in. We lived in rooms starting at 3000, but it was really convenient not far from restaurants and the water park, and most importantly, there was no music that plays in the pools.
The territory of the hotel is very large and I would not want to live near the fence, so I liked the location of the room, we lived in a one-story bungalow. The room was cleaned every day and very carefully, but at first we didn’t figure out the change of towels. It turns out there, in the bathroom, there is a small piece of paper on which the rules for changing linen are written. Towels just had to be thrown on the floor and they were immediately changed! Mostly Germans lived in the hotel, so by the end of the trip I could no longer hear German speech ((((. These Germans are real pigs, they blow their noses right at the dinner table, knocking off the appetite of others ! ! ! Their children are simply not brought up, yelling at all the throat, wherever they feel like it, but parents don’t care! ! ! In short - pigs! ! ! Food in restaurants is monotonous, it could have been better, so solid 4. Alcohol is just nothing, the most advanced stocked it upon arrival at the airport. Next time I'll do it!! !
The friendly staff all smile and greet you, they especially love Russian girls, they do everything for them with more joy and a smile. Mostly they speak English, Russian is bad. The water park is great, but when everyone is going to ride, there are not enough laps for everyone. In addition, the circles differ in color and size! ! ! Each slide needs its own circle. It was very inconvenient when you crawl to the third floor on the right hill, and they tell you that you need a circle of a different color and size, ours is too big (((German children and their parents almost take the circle away from you when you pass by them on the ground floor! Their impudence knew no bounds! ! When I went to the toilet and stood in line, two German women just stood insolently in front of my nose, as if I was standing in the toilet for beauty! ! I didn’t swear with them, but In addition, on the hills they gave circles only to their own, that is, to the Germans, and they didn’t give them to others, they kept them to themselves.

THIS IS THERE THEY ARE… There are small souvenir shops on the territory of the hotel, the sellers dragged us there almost by the hair, and we were not going to buy anything. Also near the main pool they sell ice cream for $ 1, we unknowingly came up because we thought that everything was included, but it turned out to be paid. For free ice cream, you had to go to restaurants, but it was given very little, so there was not enough for everyone, and the taste was not very good. (((
Nearby, about 1 km away, there is a SENSO MOLL supermarket, the prices are the same as ours, no more. So you can safely go there. There is also a bank and a banking machine where you can exchange dollars for $ 1 a little more than 5 pounds. As for the safety of things, everything was fine, we left several times and even a camera, a phone on sunbeds both on the beach and in the water park, and everything was fine. I recommend this hotel to couples with children or people who just want to relax in peace and quiet.
In general, I liked everything, just super for the price and quality!
Minus: zero animation, a lot of flies, showers - just a hole in the floor, when you wash yourself, you stand almost knee-deep in water))), for me personally, the lighting in the rooms was very poor - it’s a bit dark (the girls will understand me) really in the mirror you can’t see yourself, you had to put on make-up in the toilet.
