Good 4k. Yes, that's her. I'm in Egypt for the 8th or 9th time, mostly I've been to 5, so I know what I'm writing about. Let's start in order:
1. Arrival. We arrived at night and the air conditioner was not working. The hotel was loaded at the time of our arrival by about 50%, but all 3 families spent the night on sofas right at the reception. No one even said a word that there was a bar around the corner and you could at least have a drink of water (in general, usually in 5k they are already met with drinks). In short, at night - terrible heat and sleep on a public couch without water. We immediately realized that we had hit, but decided to look around.
2. The territory is small for a 5k, a water park is declared, to which a shuttle goes, but it does not work, those adults were bored. It's sad in the evening, because There is nowhere to walk especially - in 10 minutes you will bypass the entire territory from and to. We were seduced by the photo of the site, but I admit that the photographer at the hotel is excellent: expectation and reality are different(

3. Restaurant and food: watermelons - a rarity, seafood - only fish, on Thursdays they were treated to grilled shrimp, and in a tricky way: both shrimp and squid were strung on skewers, when they demanded more shrimp - the chefs looked ambiguous, but gave out. In general, the restaurant is a paradox: there seems to be a lot of food, but some of it is a bit dry, often snacks that were untouched, they demanded a melon, a lot of desserts and bread. At the entrance there is a sign that the restaurant throws out a bunch of kilograms of food, but in reality, if there was a good manager, if he would analyze what people really ate, the number of leftovers would be significantly reduced.
4. Evening animation: called on their own. For children, as elsewhere - a mini disco, well, for adults - sadness. It felt like after dinner the waiters of the restaurant and moonlighting on the animation. for 2 weeks not a single worthy show for 5k (
5. Internet: I will say this: there are problems with it everywhere, even in 5, but here it was simply not there from time to time. Wi-Fi available, no internet
6. Rooms: while new, not shabby, but the towels were brought in stains.
7. Gym - attention! This is sadness! If a girl wants to work out, then in a small room she will “enjoy” his aromas shoulder to shoulder with some man. Even here, the discrepancy between 5ke can be traced (I was disappointed (
8. Sellers get it right on the territory, and even if this flag hangs, although it doesn’t hang, some still pretend that they didn’t notice it and try to sell another service.
9. We visited an a la carte Asian restaurant, didn’t finish our meal and went to the general one. If you like sushi and Asian food, you will be completely disappointed in this restaurant.
10. The sea is shallow. You have to go to have a little dip.
11. Pools without a modern cleaning system: employees clean them manually. It is good that we are not squeamish in this regard.
On our last evening, the child agreed to meet with friends at a mini disco. First they came for dinner and found that the cooks themselves poured food everywhere, some vacationers were measured at the entrance, the animators were wearing masks. We realized that there was an inspection. The most stupid - for children, in honor of the test, canceled the mini disco. A lot of children were upset, but to the question: shame on you - the answer is: we have a check.
In general, the hotel is a real 4k, the 5th star is clearly paid. Savings everywhere, although we spent a lot of money on a tour. We rested and enjoyed the trip due to the fact that every evening we went to Hurghada to have fun and walk.
