In my opinion, this hotel is one of the worst in Hurghada! If you are flying to Egypt for the first time and you have chosen it, please do not make bad conclusions about the service, the sea, the staff and the area in general!
Check-in, arrived at about 19-20 pm, at the reception we were immediately warned that our rooms are "not very good", so they for 10 "dollars" a day can ("all Official") to settle with a sea view. Checked "not very good", indeed, the "marketing move" is successful, the room on the ground floor overlooking the road (they call it "overlooking the garden"), in a secluded corner, above the road (!! ), Collapsed pedestals , bed, smoked, in a word "horror". For 15 "dollars" for two rooms and a view of the pool, a piece of sea we got)). The room is generally normal. Cleaning is also normal. In the room kettle, tea, coffee, and daily brought water.
Sea. And here the main thing, as they say, "crap", the sea is not!

There are tides, we just got to low tide. The sea came from 5-7 o'clock in the morning and by 9 o'clock, disappeared again. To dive into the sea, you need to overcome the pontoon, the sun, 5-7 minutes, personally, I did not enjoy it. About the beach, and what about the beach when there is no sea? By the way, do not buy tours from a guide, men go to the beach, they also work in a hotel, believe me, they can buy tours much cheaper. Jamaica, most likely, I'm not the first to write about him, decent, cheerful, unobtrusive, he is better than a guide to tell you everything, you will be satisfied! Be sure to meet this interesting person!
Basin. Attempting to dive in out of curiosity, I left immediately because the pool was crowded with locals and their children. (well, you understand me)).
Restaurants. In general, enough food, but definitely not for a 5-star hotel (!!!!!
We saw them, it seems, on the 3rd day after arriving at the restaurant for breakfast (there were inscriptions on the T-shirts that they were animations). I don't even know if it can be called animation, yes, in the evenings there were small "attempts" to entertain guests, beach volleyball, football. By the way, mostly young animators came into contact, Egyptians, always smiling, they do not know the language well, but this does not prevent them from charging positively, about Russian-speaking girls-animators, and did not understand. holds and pay money.
If you fly in a huge company, either as a couple in love, or as a person very tired of the city, people and work, you may not notice all these little things. But if you are planning to go with small children or a small company, and do not plan to go on excursions or you have already gone to all, do not enjoy diving, or are afraid, the hotel will be very boring.
And the most important thing, usually for all of us, is the sea, which was not enough in my vacation!
