Отдых-это хорошо! Rest is good!

Hello everyone! Recently arrived, the vacation is over, we can sum up: 1) the most worries were about the hotel (too many bad comments were read on the sites). . . I want to immediately reassure all normal and adequate: the Regina hotel is worth the modest money that you pay, food standards, average service, excellent well-groomed territory and a good beach. In general, if you do not compare with European hotels, which cost differently, then the hotel is very good. I have already been to Hurghada a couple of times, so Regina is no worse than Golden 5 and definitely better than Khorpallas. 2) The second thing that worried me was the weather-nature: just when we were leaving, for some reason the sharks in Sharm became more active, so we were worried. . . In fact, everything turned out to be simpler: sharks have not appeared in the waters of the city for a long time, and Regina, thank God, is located in the center of Hurghada. As for the weather, if you find a calm place on the beach, 20-22 is the optimal temperature for a harmless tan, and 24-25 (sea) is normal and not cold to swim. In those hotels in the desert, it is somewhat colder. . 3) Shopping! Unfortunately, we are not fans of ethnic things, so all these scarabs and papyri are not very good for us, but next to the hotel there is duty free and branded Adidas, where sales are periodically held. So shopping was a success! 4) Now some tips: the spa in the hotel itself is poor, so it makes no sense to order a Turkish bath or Cleopatra, but a great massage !! ! Only if you want to save money, it makes sense to bargain in the very center with administrators and do not take papers from sellers on the beach (they get their percentage, from which they will give way to you). By the way, one such seller, Hasan, is a rare swindler - he promises everyone to bring a miracle face mask as a gift and deceives, don’t take a bath from him, better go yourself, save 5-10 bucks. Tip two: don’t rush to the restaurant for dinner at 19-00, come 40 minutes after the start of dinner and you don’t have to stand in line, breakfast and lunch are less busy, because some of the guests are HB, and in the morning everyone is asleep. Tip three - when you check in, be polite and not arrogant - the Egyptians are sincere people and appreciate respect, but if you check in very badly, then in the second round you can give 10 dollars, (be prepared for the fact that the furniture is old almost everywhere, but you can’t look at the furniture arrived? ) Tip four - do not be nervous about small portions - you can come up for the second and third time, and if you have an average human body, then gobble up both fish and a couple of cutlets, and a piece of chicken, and another bucket of vegetables with side dishes you are unlikely to succeed. So don't be afraid of anything - you won't have to go hungry! The last piece of advice - if your room didn't have, for example, hangers or dryers, towels or anything else important, then you don't have to run and yell at the reception - catch the cleaning boy (this is not difficult, they are always there, in the next room), give him a pound (Egyptian money) and show him the item you need, by the evening you will have everything! Do not be nervous! Everything will be fine! Good luck to you!
