To begin with)) that at first we went to the Alfa Leila Valeila hotel from the Kostroma travel agency Atlanta tour, operator Karina Smirnova, a company of 6 adults (4 men and 2 women) and two teenagers 13 and 14 years old... upon arrival they settled in the rooms, check-in It was evening, we arrived at the hotel at about 18:30 local time. Getting a room and check-in took no more than 15 minutes, the hotel staff is very smiling and friendly.
On the morning of the second day, we got acquainted with the guide of the host Egyptian company Als Tour... except that he repeated all the phrases three times . . from his speech they understood only one thing . . that no matter where you stick in Egypt . . “You will fall into deception everywhere, because You don't know a word of Arabic! Thank God this is not the first time in Egypt))
On the third day, having gone fishing and to El Gunna, upon arrival, they found a note at the door of their rooms with a proposal to go to the reception to a Russian girl named Nastya.

Arriving at the reception, we found a pretty, our compatriot who spoke perfectly Russian, who stunned us with an offer from the hotel . . due to the overcrowding of the hotel, we were offered to move to the nearby Jungle Park hotel, without thinking twice, we went and looked at the rooms that they offer us)) and ran quickly to pack our things )) with all this, Alfa Leilovskie's bracelets remained on us, and in Jungle they put on their bracelets, which accordingly gave us the right to use all the restaurants of both hotels, plus the services that are provided for in the hotel's free program.
The level of Jungle is an order of magnitude higher than Leila . . although I can’t say anything bad about Leila . . or Jungle . . everywhere there are positive aspects, the level of rooms offered to us in Jungle impressed us... for 3 and 2 people we were offered rooms with 3 beds . . with access to the pool . . and not far from the main restaurants . . the rooms were 5080.5082, and 5085. Fortunately, the whole company was located almost across the room . . there was no need to run after each other.
In Alfa Leila, we went to the show 1000 and 1 night twice, we realized that it was repeated every time, we didn’t go anymore, by the way, the show for people from other hotels costs $ 25, the water park located on the territory of Jungle Park impressed me with its size, and it’s surprising that all the slides they worked all the time that we were there, in other hotels usually some of the slides did not work. For guests from other hotels, a visit to the Jungle Water Park costs $ 45 per person from 10 am to 5 pm.
At the Jungle Hotel, the representative of the company BiblioGlobus and Als Tour turned out to be a very pleasant and caring girl named Svetlana . . at our first meeting . . she asked if we had excursions that we had booked in Alfa Leila, we nodded in the affirmative))) she she immediately re-registered our boarding receipts, and gave good advice and advice on visiting Sahara Park, saying that without “arafats” or scarves covering the face, as well as without glasses, they would not be allowed on the ATV, not everyone in our company had glasses, Svetlana kindly offered to bring her glasses the next day, and everyone in our company was provided with the necessary attributes, namely four pairs of glasses.

Now about some minor troubles happening in the Jungle . . and which were not in Alfa Layla... when asked at the reception in the Jungle for a hotel diagram... the hotelier, seeing two bracelets on our hands, immediately demanded a dollar, we refused to pay him, he offered to tell him the room number and this amount will be credited to our account (later we found out from Svetlana that in such cases you need to look and clearly remember his name and surname written on the badge that is assigned to each of the attendants, and then tell your guide in particular to her) we refused, citing although we don’t remember how we just settled in the rooms, in Alfa Leila this information was provided to us upon request, and printed in Russian. In general, the staff in Leila is much more smiling, perhaps this is due to the fact that much fewer tourists live in Leila. The second incident occurred at the Jungla restaurant, having arrived from a jeep tour to Sakhara Park and came to have dinner . . we went to the drinks counter and asked for a beer . . moreover, the phrase was uttered in English . . fortunately, almost all of our people had such knowledge companies, which we were pointed out to the street to the bar . . although the rest of the restaurant visitors are not with such tired faces as ours (I will tell everyone many excursions in Egypt are simply tiring), to which I immediately demanded the Restaurateur Boss and warned that I would write a claim at the reception. A minute later, a well-trained Arab stood at our table on the hood and asked in broken Russian to explain what had happened to us, I refused to give any explanations, and said that I would state all my claims in a complaint to the hotel reception, a minute later there was a bucket on our table clogged with ice in which there were 4 bottles of beer, and the restaurateur asked not to mention what happened at the reception, we never saw the bartender who refused to pour beer for us more than 5 days, although the entire main team continued to work.
Subsequently, we learned from the guide Svetlana that in such cases, as a rule, they are fired.
The disco is better in the alpha lane, although there are a lot of people in the jungle, it’s somehow boring, there are buses from both hotels to the beach. hotels are rarely planted.
The food in the hotels is very diverse . . a lot of meat . . fish . . in Leila they make a very tasty beef kebab, they gave crabs and mussels a couple of times, vegetables and fruits were varied - melons . . watermelons . . oranges, bananas, pomegranates, persimmons, simple and white dates, grapefruits, suites, cucumbers, tomatoes . . lettuce leaves, boiled beets . . carrots in all forms grated, chopped, in short, there is something for every taste . . even for dieters there is everything, very tasty cheese pasta . . with tomatoes it’s just lovely, they make very tasty adjika in the leila . . just stunned with kebabs, In the leila the wine is worse . . from the boxes and in the jungle it’s bottled and very good, and strong liquors are like in all of Egypt . . the same. . they have a dry law, and alcohol is only for hotels, so it’s better to stock up on duty free with normal alcohol, you need to drink coffee cocktails very carefully . . the water they bring to coffee machines just passes through the filters . . there is a chance of indigestion.
In general, the rest was a success . . we arrived tanned and rested)))
