Good day to all!
We went to this hotel from 2008 to 2010, everything was very worthy for Egypt. And so we decided to visit Medinat Makadi again, naturally in Solymar....Terrible disappointment. It is clear that the situation in the country is not conducive to the development of the tourism industry, but the hotel is really degrading. I base my conclusion on my impressions of early visits to the hotel and on my impressions of holidays in Greece:
1. Rooms need to be renovated, furniture and plumbing needs to be changed
2. The operation of the air conditioner - the plane takes off more quietly, three rooms have been changed, it's like that everywhere.
3. Food: the quantity and variety of meat and fish dishes is depressing, it’s useless to comment about the grill, where did the chef go, who prepared salads from selected vegetables and dressings for lunch and dinner in your presence
4. The beach is very dirty, cigarette butts, plastic glasses, beach fights are not steamed at all

5. The sea is dirty in the afternoon - diesel stains are common
6. Gone are the free milkshakes for the kids at the beach bar.
7. The attitude of the staff, except for the guys from the animation - they constantly want to cheat you for money.
8. Attitude towards Russian tourists - our group had a departure delay of 5 hours. At dinner, the staff suddenly decided that we should not eat, people were taken away from the plates with food, cut off their bracelets and escorted out of the restaurant. We sat at the same table with familiar Germans. They also tried to take away food from us, including the child, and the staff was put on our indignation. And then the Germans opened their mouths, saying I don’t know, talking to them in English, a German woman from the administration and an important local manager came running. After a resonant monologue of our "defenders" we were left alone, they even brought bottles of local wine. The Germans could not understand why we “Russians” allow ourselves to be treated this way… It is clear that the flight delay is not the fault of the hotel, but not to feed 10 people or at least give lunch boxes to go when the restaurant is fully loaded is a rare redneck. I myself work in the field of nutrition, I can imagine what I’m talking about and what some dishes are made of, carefully poured with gravy and seasoned with spices
9. What is good left in hotels: funny guys from the animation and a doctor who really sits in the neighboring Club
Of course, my review and further conclusion are subjective, but if you want a quality and not very expensive holiday, forget about Egypt. We were warned in the Tez Tour that the quality had fallen, but what would be so…
