Сплошной позитив Solid positive

I will immediately disappoint those who like to write / read about the details in which agency they bought a ticket, how they flew / registered / settled, listing animators by name, etc. I don't think it has any effect on the choice of the hotel.
Out of habit, I settled in the room that the hotel offered (one caveat - the hotel offered the first floor with access to the terrace, I asked for a room with a balcony, which I checked into). Without any "suggestions" from my side and "hints" from the hotel worker. As a result, it turned out to be an ordinary standard room "overlooking the garden", with a beautiful view from the window, silence and comfort, with the opportunity to drink tea / coffee on the balcony (kettle and accessories in the room, if there is not enough tea / sugar, you can get it in the restaurant).
Advantages of the territory (from my point of view): well-groomed (flowers, bushes, dense grass cover, palm trees / trees - everything is trimmed, watered, blooms and smells, no “smelling” sprays), thoughtful (from any room, a wonderful relaxing and soothing pool/garden/sea view) suitable for morning/afternoon/evening promenade. Plenty of pools (4 or 5, one heated at 28 degrees). There are many shops/mini-markets on the territory of the hotel with a good selection of souvenirs and a variety of goods (don't forget to haggle). Relatively decent wi-fi in the lobby. I recommend right at the airport (after collecting your luggage just before leaving the building) to buy a local SIM card (for example, Orange) for $5, which gives you 2.5 GB of acceptable quality traffic. There is a large SPA center (I haven’t been, I don’t know the details).

Pros / cons of the beach: large, there are enough sunbeds for everyone, there is wind protection, a pontoon for corals and fish, the absence of a sandy entrance and the opportunity for children to flounder in the sea, the presence of a kinder club, a bar.
Rooms: no minuses observed, standard, comfortable, everything works. Considering that there are significantly fewer Russians in the hotel than Ukrainians, the presence of two channels of a zombie box with Russian propaganda and the absence of at least one Ukrainian channel does not look logical.
Meals: the most pleasant impression of the hotel kitchen for all trips to Egypt (this was the sixth). Cuisine, taking into account the contingent of vacationers (Germans, Ukrainians, Italians, Poles, Belarusians, British, Czechs, Chinese, Russians, others) - European, Mediterranean, Italian, Indian, Egyptian. EVERYTHING IS VERY DELICIOUS! Everything is well-prepared! A variety of meat (at least 5-6 for each meal), fish (at least 2-3), vegetables (at least a dozen), side dishes (at least 5-6), fruit, confectionery dishes / products will satisfy 95% of vacationers ( except for 5%, which consist of those who mixed up the flight and ended up in Hurghada instead of Bali / Seychelles, and those who, in principle, "do not like everything", despite the fact that they do not eat at home even half of what is offered in the hotel) . Separately, I note the presence in the dining room, on the veranda and on the beach of coffee machines that gave out 8 good quality drinks (espresso, americano, cappuccino, mocha, latte, hot chocolate and something else). To my surprise, the sweets were of very good quality and suitable not only for tasting, but also for wanting to consume every day (cakes, pastries, jellies, sweets,... ).
Staff: everything from the guys who clean the rooms and the territory, to the managers at the reception, the dining room staff (whether it’s the “most important” or the waiters) and the animation team - courtesy itself, sheer positive, attitude to solve your problems / questions. You should have seen the eyes of German pensioners and our young mothers when the waiters, on their own initiative, took their plates / cups from them and helped them to bring them to the table! The very case when a trifle - but very nice. No one has ever hinted at this, but if you leave the porter $ 1 for delivering your suitcases / bags to the room, $ 1 for the room cleaner 2-3 times a week and the waiter who remembered your drink preferences or the habit of using paper napkins always (on for some reason they don’t serve dinner) or a toothpick (they are available, but “on request”) and will put them on the table for you as soon as you put your plates on it - believe me, you won’t lose these 5 bucks the weather on the amount of the tour they will, but they will add positive emotions and a desire to please you.

Temperature (February 8-15) of water in the sea +23-24, in pools +21, in heated +28, air +31-24 (at night +19-14).
