I was there at the end of February, the hotel is small, mainly for budget tourists from Russia, Ukraine, Poland, a few Germans and French. The staff is not snickering as much as in other Egyptian hotels, attentive to the wishes, only the cleaners ask for tips, it is better not to give anything at all, then the cleaning will be in order. There are rooms facing the street, they are cheaper by 120 bucks, and those overlooking the courtyard, they are larger and for more advanced visitors, they have a balcony and more expensive furniture. Nobody ever turns on the heating in the pool, keep this in mind. There is a SPA salon, a gym, a bunch of proposals for various trips to the beach, there is no importunity, once you say that you don’t have to immediately fall off.
The sea is quite enough for swimming, those who wish can swim beyond the border of the bay, if the gut is not thin. The bay is quite deep, there are stone steps from the beach to the sea.
The food can be called quite good, with my digestive problems I had nothing to complain about: for ten days, not a single failure, unlike other garbage dumps.

Breakfast is stingy, in return for an excellent lunch and dinner. Always variety: two or three kinds of meat, fish, chicken, various sausages. In the evenings there were fish, barracuda, boiled crabs, lamb and chicken barbecue on the coals, I don’t think that in other hotels you will be served barbecue on the coals.
Weak animation, in fact, only after dinner an hour of dancing on the beach. Personally, it didn't bother me.
Alcoholic drinks are varied, locally produced whiskey is a very good quality drink.
The wine is local, young, not ripe, and in addition fortified with alcohol, the muck is shorter.
True, the refined Germans and French slurped everything in a row, but there is no question of Russians, as long as it burns.
In the evening, in fact, it's boring, the disco bar is full of pornography, cramped, dark, and smoky.
Those who want more service may well choose another hotel, those who are interested in a better vacation for little money can choose a room overlooking the courtyard in this hotel.
In the neighborhood there are hotels according to the club system, you should not look for them among the offers of travel agencies.
