I want to save everyone from wasted nerves and money, especially those who go to watch the sea! This hotel made me write a review for the first time!! ! I am not picky, and I always go in search of pluses and in a good mood, but there was a feeling that we were simply thrown for money. The hotel was advised in a travel agency, I also read reviews there, which were clearly written under the supervision of animators (I know, I wrote it myself). This is not the first time in Mars and Egypt, I know what budget 4 and 5 look like, but here we ended up not at 4, but at the camp site "at Mikhalych in Genichesk. " And when they write that "this is the cheapest hotel in the selection, what did you want? ", sorry 900 bucks, it's definitely not worth it, and it's very strange that it is higher in price than the other 4.
There is no reception, it's a one-story tent with carved wooden columns, Wi-Fi is barely there and every day you need to take a piece of paper with a password, dim light, it's very dull to sit there in the evening. During the two days of my stay there, I did not watch evening entertainment, there was nothing to do. The hotel itself is a building in the middle of the desert, no greenery around, no fences, you can see the desert, the wilderness. no feeling that you are safe. The room for a small thank you received immediately, large, good on the 2nd floor. But the faucet in the bathroom is wrapped with electrical tape, so that when you turn on the water, it immediately pours from the shower onto your back or head. The shower itself is fixed (in order to wash tender places you need to twist well) and directed outside the glass door - all the water is on the floor. The magnifying mirror is literally fixed with snot, it's scary to pass by.
I'm going overseas and the beach, but even here it's a complete mess. After breakfast, beach towels were no longer enough, I managed to get one in the evening. There are simply not enough sun loungers at all, and this is in the month of January with a half-empty hotel! We wandered along the beach until someone left the beach and gave up their sunbed. The next day, immediately after breakfast, there were no sunbeds again, everything was busy, I turned to the beach boy, to which I heard: wait 30 minutes, and if you don’t like it, go to the reception. Why should we wait for someone to get up? The sea is a shallow waist-deep lagoon, with rare brown coral bushes and two fish. There is nowhere to swim - it is very shallow and scary to comb your stomach against rare dead corals. The entrance from the shore is also strewn with broken dead coral, more like concrete. There is no pontoon to the outer reef, and it is unrealistic to reach it. In the distance to the left you can see where the reef begins, but there are locals standing there and demanding 5 bucks for swimming along the free corals in the free sea. There are a couple of broken ceramic urns on the beach, a toilet near the dining room and near the pool, the doors do not close (all of them? ), The bar is also only there. There are 4 tired palm trees throughout the territory. Don't be fooled by the pictures - they turn out really beautiful, the color of the water, the rocker by the water create a good effect.

Dining room: on the shore, there are a couple of tables on the street, but there is a draft, and this is really a factory canteen, with a shameful queue, a minimum amount of food, plastic leaky cups-granchaks, dark and miserable, the number of tables is also not cleared for all guests, come and wait for someone to get up. If the food in one of the vessels is over, they do not report it, although they cook it well. There is no choice between meat and fish. Cakes are all the same - just anointed with a different color of cream. Fruits - pomegranate and quince (delicious). Cleaning: they don’t clean, in the evening they turned to the reception - only after that they cleaned up, although I hung a sign asking for cleaning. They also could not get through to the reception, we had to go, and there they gave us a long personal number - call it.
The situation with sunbeds finished me off completely, through the hotel guide they changed the hotel to 4 of the same price category. The minimum surcharge and we are in paradise with a pontoon, a large beach with palm trees, a gorgeous reef, a bright, beautiful restaurant with delicious food. A couple flew in with us, for the first time in Egypt, they said more to Egypt with a single foot! Thank you hotel. This is a place where you can catch depression for your own money.
